Tumps exact words today!

WTAF? That sounds like he is about to drop a Nuke!

How the hell has the world got here?

Trumps truth social posts sounds more like something that a dramatic gleeful tv presenter would say in a game show. Not something a world leader threatening to blow up an entire civilisation.

He is probably means it now, but will come out with some excuse as to why he hasn't done anything in about 5 hours. I expect if he attempted there will be a military coup if he tries the nuclear weapons. His only negotiation skill is brinkmanship but I suspect he has met his match in the Iranians.

His silent and rich financiers don't care about the lives of people in the Levant, but he is at risk at losing the monopoly the USD price has on oil trades which would be a huge blow to their pockets and they will orchestrate something.

Called it.

This is not about human rights. Conflicts are alaways about about money and territory.

Trump is a taco once again, he’s a coward full of hot air and no one should take him seriously, all the hysteria earlier on here was for nothing.

placemats · 07/04/2026 23:57

Surprise, surprise all those millions of Iranians who feared oblivion, the TOTALLY SANE Trump has done a TACO.

LoveheartBear · 07/04/2026 23:58

Has he actually declared a ceasefire though? I thought it was under the condition that Iran open Strait of Hormuz, and Iran, to my knowledge, hasn’t yet responded.

Do you actually believe that Trump is doing the negotiating?

It's JD Vance

It's a USA proposal.

LadyPorkPie · 08/04/2026 00:13

Iran have not yet responded and have since issued air strikes at Isreal. There’s no ceasefire confirmation as of yet from Iran or a statement saying they’ll agree to terms opening the strait.

WallaceinAnderland · 08/04/2026 00:18

A ceasefire has been offered (allegedly).

It has not yet been accepted.

The ICC presumably.

Even threatening action against civilians for the purposes of causing terror is a war crime, irrespective of whether he goes ahead.

The US doesn't recognise the ICC does it?

Otherwise George W Bush would have been indicted when he invaded Iraq

(Sorry if that has already been said but I've not read all of the thread)

And male egos.

Manxexile · 08/04/2026 00:42

I think it's a great pity that international law, the UN, the ICC, the US, the EU and the West generally haven't done more to deal with the growing threats from Iran over the last 25+ years.

The Iranian regime has threatened to destroy Israel, has supported terrorism in the West and funds and arms terrorist organisations like Hezbollah, Hamas, ISIS, and the Houthis.

I think an armed conflict with Iran has been inevitable for many years.

Pity nobody thought to secure Hormuz before starting it.

Although I suspect Trump thinks that is Europe's problem and not America's. and I think he's right in that

There is no compromise. They have issued a statement outlining demands totally contrary to trump.

Iran's proposed 10 point plan:

  1. Commitment to non-aggression 2. Iran’s control over the Strait of Hormuz 3. Acceptance of Iran's uranium enrichment 4. Lifting of all primary sanctions 5. Lifting of all secondary sanctions 6. Termination of all UN Security Council resolutions 7. Termination of all Board of Governors resolutions 8. Paying compensation to Iran 9. Withdrawal of US combat forces from the region 10. Cessation of war on all fronts, including in Lebanon

Iran will now fire on Israel for the next two weeks.

Israel may do the same.

Yes.
Even if the USA does stick to the ceasefire, Israel have not agreed to do the same.

TheseWordsAreMine · 08/04/2026 01:45

rainingsnoring · 08/04/2026 01:42

Israel may do the same.

They have lost the backing of America. Russia, China and Iran now have the rule.

Russia and China could now knock out America.
