Deadline deal: Trump announces “double-sided” ceasefire, Iran reopens Hormuz

    Less than 90 minutes before his self-imposed 8 p.m. Tuesday deadline, President Trump announced a two-week, “double sided” ceasefire with Iran — a last-minute agreement that will reopen the Strait of Hormuz and temporarily halt a conflict that has stretched nearly 40 days and rattled global markets.  ---- The deal hinges on a single, high-stakes condition: Iran must allow “COMPLETE, IMMEDIATE, and SAFE OPENING” of the strait, the narrow waterway that carries roughly one-fifth of the world’s oil supply. Tehran agreed, with Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi confirming ships will be permitted to pass for the duration of the pause under Iranian military oversight. ---- Trump framed the agreement as a sign the U.S. had already achieved its core military objectives. “This will be a double sided CEASEFIRE!” he wrote on Truth Social, adding that both sides are “very far along with a definitive Agreement concerning Longterm PEACE.” He said a 10-point proposal from Tehran now serves as a “workable basis” for negotiations and claimed “almost all” major disputes have been resolved, with the two-week window intended to finalize the deal.  ---- Instead, the announcement triggered an immediate shift in global markets. Brent crude — the international oil benchmark — plunged roughly 14 percent within an hour, reflecting sudden relief that one of the world’s most vital shipping lanes would remain open, at least for now.  ---- Read here  ----  https://mxmnews.com/article/9028cbdb-676f-415d-8f4b-ce6c1180b367?deadline-deal-trump-announces-double-sided-ceasefire-iran-reopens-hormuz

  President Trump has once again delivered results where others failed for decades. By securing a two-week ceasefire with Iran and ensuring the Strait of Hormuz is open for safe passage, he has protected global energy flows and prevented unnecessary escalation while maintaining overwhelming American strength.  ---- This move shows the effectiveness of peace through strength. After achieving key military objectives, Trump used America’s dominant position to force concessions, including safe maritime navigation and the groundwork for a long-term peace agreement in the Middle East. Unlike previous administrations that allowed Iran to grow bolder through weakness and cash infusions, this approach puts American interests and global stability first.  ---- Strong, decisive leadership means knowing when to strike decisively and when to negotiate from superiority. Trump’s actions have advanced the cause of peace without compromising our security or that of our allies. Americans can be confident that their President is ending dangerous conflicts on favorable terms and restoring respect for the United States on the world stage --- See here  --- https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=917304197734041&set=a.136629145801554  -  

Yes, it has been reopened under Iranian control with a stipulation that Iranian vessels will escort ships passing through the straight. 

I note they didn't have this type of control over the strait prior to Trump's war. Trump has given them complete control over 20% to 25% of the world's oil supply.

There is nothing like watching a MAGA who is too dumb to realize he is celebrating a war where we surrendered and accepted their terms.

   You went from screaming "the sky is falling" to this?  You really are a moron.

Yep, I can understand what I read without having to run to Facebook and look for someone that will tell me what I want to hear.

Pretty pathetic attempt to spin a complete Trump defeat. He lost. He showed himself to be a pussy. 

Of course Davey Dog went scurrying around to find some idiot Facebook post he could copy and paste. Just like Goebbels crowing about how the D-Day invasion had been "destroyed."

Ah, I see, he didn't bomb the fuck out of them enough for you.  Why do you love war?

What the fuck are you babbling about? Trump shouldn't have dropped ONE bomb on them, and we've all said that repeatedly. So have you!

Aaron, didn't your guy start it? It's you who love war. In fact you voted for it.

We don't love war particularly this one that was the hight of stupidity because we couldn't win it.  And I agree with you in the sense there were no good options left so we had no choice but to surrender.

 It is a bigger humiliation than when we pulled out of Vietnam and the rest of the world now knows we are nothing more than a toothless tiger.

What's your boy gonna do next invade Cuba because he is is desperate for a win?  That's the real reason we Trump got us into this foolishness in the first place. 

Oh, I almost forgot. Congratulations on helping build that.

I guess it was Super TACO Tuesday.
