We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Let me guess... Trump's offer: Iran hands over all oil rights and lets Trump rape as many children as he wants in exchange for "peace" while Trump gets to bomb more schoolgirls when he can't get is little pecker to rise.

He’s literally just trying to protect the stock market. Once the reality of this war both hits the tickers and the price at the pump things are gonna get really wild

We got like a weeks worth of extra oil in the system from the releases of the US and Euro strategic reserves. They released like 570M barrels combined, the Bendy of Hormuz accounts for like 20m barrel a day. The Bendy has been closed for 4 weeks, let's say 20% is still getting through or going through alternative pipelines. That means that after 36 days of closure, those reserves are gone. Approximately one more week...

Oil prices are going to be wild come April.

No one reasonable would trust anything the Trump administration promises. It is going to be exceptionally hard to convince them that this time is any different from any of the previous broken promises.

Trumps head on plate might do it

Not only that but it needs to also be negotiated with Isreal who routinely assassinates / attempts to assassinate people that they are negotiating with and who has shown that the term “cease fire” is meaningless.

Exactly, also inbound marines are clearly telling that US won't negotiate in good faith.

No one's going to trust future administrations either. Maybe the president after next will break the agreements the same way Trump broke Obama's agreements.

Americans have shown they can't be trusted.
