Iran: Moving on, or not?

Yesterday Larry Johnson ended his analysis like this:   “If you’re on the east coast of the United States, you will know by 4pm whether Trump has decided to start World War III.”

Trump remained in the White House this weekend, reportedly for discussions with his various warmongers.

We ended yesterday with a new US demand.  They would negotiate further should Iran within 24 hours give them a proposal on the ‘nuclear issue’.  Iran said .. Yeah, sure!  Can do!  We’ll give you a proposal.

So the Trump-Bibi-Epstein Syndicate is prepared to hold a new round of talks with Iran on February 27 — but only if Tehran presents a detailed nuclear proposal within 48 hours, Axios reports, citing a senior US official.

According to the outlet, the meeting could be Trump’s “last chance” offer before shifting toward a military scenario. Sources say Washington does not rule out a direct strike on Iran’s Supreme Leader, Khamenei, in the event of a large-scale operation.

“If Iran presents a draft proposal, the US is ready to meet in Geneva on Friday to begin detailed negotiations and see whether a nuclear deal is possible,” the official said. An interim agreement could also be discussed.

Hopefully this is true.  Negotiations, even if only for the sake of negotiations, are always better than kinetic war.

Iran stands steadfast.  Witkoff keeps repeating that Iran may not be involved in any kind of nuclear industry, and Iran says:  “Right now, we are negotiating only nuclear, and there is no other subject” — Iranian FM Araghchi.  Of course Iran has the right as every other country has, to use peaceful nuclear technologies.

Witkoff may be helpful in the Russian situation.  In terms of Iran, he is just another zionist.   “Steve Witkoff claims that Iran is one week away from having industrial-grade bomb-making material for a nuclear weapon.”  Last year, the Trump Administration said Iran’s nuclear facilities have been completely obliterated—and suggestions otherwise are fake news.

The US is a country of habitual lying, and the lies change constantly to support their next campaign to destroy another nation.  Truth doesn’t matter, integrity doesn’t matter. Only military-industrial complex profits and disaster capitalism matters. These are the values of the country that is trying to ‘civilise’ nations thousands of years older than it.”

A few other events are now seriously interfering in the US swamp.  Tucker Calrson’s interview with Huckabee, where he unmasked Huckabee in hard support of the Greater Israel, is creating waves of disgust right through the region.  The US and Israel depend on the region to support them in strikes on Iran.   Suddenly Huckabee says that it is possible that all the land can be grabbed for Israel – the Bible says so!  Overnight it has become incredibly real for the Gulfies in terms of who they are in bed with.

Arab countries condemned the US ambassador’s remarks on “Greater Israel”

Arab countries including Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Egypt and the Arab League strongly condemned remarks by US ambassador to the occupied territories, Mike Huckabee.

In an interview with Tucker Carlson, Huckabee claimed that the Zionist regime has the right to expand to the “borders of the land promised in the Bible” known as “Greater Israel.” This stance has angered the Arab world and has been called a threat to the sovereignty and territorial integrity of countries in the region.

This announcement may torch the tiny leftover BoP:

Tel Aviv: We will not give any money to Trump’s Peace Council

While the Zionist regime is the cause of unprecedented destruction in the Gaza Strip, an official in Netanyahu’s cabinet said that this regime will not give any money to the so-called Trump Peace Council.

Meanwhile, other countries have to pay in order to join Trump’s so-called “board of peace.”  Israel always appears for the photo opportunity and then denies all afterwards.  Trump has thus far not at all recognized that Israel is not with him!  They are breaking any peace agreement right across the region, daily, over and over again.

The incredible web of deceit is becoming visible to those that did not want to see it.  The smell in the air is that Trump is now a losing proposition.

Suddenly the support for Trump and Israel is questionable in the region.  The backdrop here is that Israel is still openly stealing occupied territories and they are out shooting all neighboring countries daily, so, it is visible.  There is no peace in Gaza.  The countries that offered peacekeeping forces are now reconsidering their offers.   The US Supreme court’s ruling that Trump was way ahead of his golf club in terms of Tariffs, has an influence as well, in terms of The Caligula Mystique.   Suddenly countries are thinking .. ‘Why should we care about this chaos?  There are other markets’.

Against this backdrop my sense is that Trump has to TACO in terms of Iran.  Of course, it is only my sense and there is very little sense in this picture.

We also receive the most clear satellite imagery from the Chinese Mizarvision satellite and the ‘armada’ drawn together is slowly reversing and making more space between itself and Iran.  Trump cannot afford bodybags.

Chinese satellite Mizarvision’s imagery shows significant US withdrawal from al-Udeid Air Base, Qatar, despite Fox News denying the reports. Most of the assets were relocated further west, to Jordan and Greece.

Lady Senator Lindsey Graham told Axios that multiple people around President Trump are asking him not to bomb Iran, but he has advised him to ignore their counsel.

Benjamin Netanyahu is not helping Trump.  He says Israel is building a “complete system” of alliances involving India, Arab states, African countries, Mediterranean countries such as Greece and Cyprus, and additional Asian nations he won’t yet name, designed to challenge “both the radical Shiite axis that we fight and have fought strongly against, and also the radical Sunni axis.”  (I wonder if India knows?).  This plays into Greater Israel and this concept which most of us were aware of, is bursting out in the consciousness of other regional countries as a real objective, and not only a fever dream.

What a mess!  What an evil web!

“It’s a matter of dignity and pride,” FM Araghchi said when asked whether insisting on Iran’s right to enrich uranium on its own soil is really worth the risk right now.

It’s painful to watch a civilization-state with thousands of years of history being forced to explain the meaning of sovereignty to an American TV bimbo.

A final comment on Witkoff’s statement:  US Special Envoy Steve Witkoff says President Donald Trump is “curious”, why Iran has not backed down under pressure as tensions between the two sides simmer.

It is civilizational.
