Peace in the Middle East

But what was gained?

The Dissident reports:

Iran, The U.S. And Pakistan All Say A Deal To End The War Has Been Finalized.

Donald Trump, on TruthSocial, similarly announced that the deal was complete, writing, β€œThe Deal with the Islamic Republic of Iran is now complete. Congratulations to all! I hereby fully authorize the toll-free opening of the Strait of Hormuz, and, simultaneously herewith, authorize the immediate removal of the United States Naval blockade. Ships of the World, start your engines. Let the oil flow!”

But what exactly was gained from this illegal war?

Iran seems to have emerged in a stronger position and the world having a clear idea of what it means when you have a US President who acts first and thinks later.

The reputation of the USA in the middle-east is toast and their allies are looking for other security alliances to fall back on.

Despite strenuous efforts by Israel and the USA to provoke another Maidan-moment in Tehran, no regime change was achieved to install another US puppet like the former Shah.

The only positive from the deal is that Israel's warmaking in Lebanon will be temporarily halted, until the it picks up again.

The real tragedy is that lots of random Iranians were killed - including civilians and children - plenty of infrastructure was damaged and sanctions will continue to hurt the civilian population.

The UN could do nothing to stop a war that had global repercussions proving this institution is toothless and now way past its sell-by date.

Still, at least it's a relief for the UK.

Now Starmer does not have to send gunboats from the repair docks to the Strait of Hormuz and instead can focus on piracy on the high seas boarding 'shadow fleet' tankers.
