Trump Begs Israel Not To Blow His Deal; Netanyahu Already Is

Right, so Donald Trump has got himself an Iran deal.A peace deal. A beautiful deal. A long and beautiful peace, he says, because of course he does, because if there is one thing the tangerine tyrant loves more than threatening to blow something up is announcing that he invented peace some 5 minutes later.Lebanon can’t have got the memo they were included in this memorandum of understanding Trump is crowing about as if it’s a done and dusted deal – a memorandum of understanding is not a deal no matter how many media outlets present it as such, it is simply an acknowledgement by both sides over what the other side actually wants, not that there is necessarily an agreement there.Smoke is still rising over Dahiyeh and Ghobeiry as Israel hasn’t let up one iota. Buildings are still being hit, streets strewn with fresh rubble, people fleeing, responders trying their best and that is of course the catch in Trump’s deal isn’t it?And that is of course the catch in Trump’s deal and it was always going to be when he deigned to go over his boss Netanyahu’s head and do a ‘deal’ with Iran without him, such as that is.It’s certainly not the headline he wants, he wants to tell the world he’s stopped another war even though he started it. He wants to talk about oil, about the markets, about Hormuz opening toll free, how he has saved the whole of civilisation via another all caps message on Truth Social.
