US Iran War: Pakistan says US and Iran agree on 'final' text of peace deal to end war
Three regional officials said the emerging deal is expected to pave the way for reopening the Strait of Hormuz, the phased lifting of sanctions on Iran, and the release of frozen Iranian assets. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of the negotiations.
The problem is that this news is 9 hours old and since then there have been things that have been shot down since.
This is only 41 minutes ago:

US says 'downed' multiple Iranian drones targeting commercial ships
“Iran launched multiple one-way attack drones in an attempt to strike commercial ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz,” US Central Command (Centcom), which oversees operations in the region, posted on X. Centcom insisted that the strait “remains open for transit”.
If you look at the dates there appears to be a discrepancy, but that has to do with time zones and the Indian article is referencing Pakistan 9 hours ago.
And this is most recent.
Of course saying no frozen funds have been used is not a lie. The money used is your money which could have funded USAID operations, before Musk stole the money.

QuoteThe United Arab Emirates has categorically denied reports published by certain international media outlets alleging the transfer of funds from the UAE to the Islamic Republic of Iran, including allegations concerning $3 billion.
In a statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs affirmed that these allegations are entirely false and unfounded, stressing that no frozen Iranian funds have been released, transferred, or facilitated through the UAE.
The Ministry also called on media outlets to exercise accuracy, rely on official sources, and refrain from publishing or circulating unverified information and unfounded allegations.

Trump has backed away from renewed war with Iran – here’s why
Trump claimed to have cancelled the strikes because of progress in negotiations between the two countries. In a statement posted on social media, Trump said: “Discussions and final points have been, in both concept and great detail, approved by all parties involved.”
He later added that the deal is set to be signed over the "next few days". Whether this will happen remains to be seen. Trump has declared that a deal between the US and Iran is imminent on numerous occasions only for no agreement to be signed. Iran's foreign ministry has also called claims that an agreement has been reached speculative, insisting that "nothing has been finalised".
I'll tell you why he's "backed off". Because it's TACO Friday and his war is an EPIC FAILURE! Iran's retaliations over the last 2 days have undoubtedly caused at least another $5B in hardware and infrastructure destruction, and they probably don't have enough working radar installations and planes to target Iranian assets with missiles and bombs they're running out of. At some point Demodopes are going to get hold of this information and it's going to start leaking out to the most censored press corps since Pravda & Ysvestia were dishing out bullshit under Uncle Joe Stalin.
The so-called diplomacy and "agreement" he lies about every day has not progressed a millimeter since the ceaseless fire began over a month ago, and it's pretty clear the whole region is in flames at the moment, even if Chump says he backed away.
The economy is destined for some serious shit in the not too distant future.

Last post by RE - Jun 12, 2026, 04:07 PMI didn't have any trouble producing results back in the day. I just didn't like the job. I didn't like academia much either, I was just good at it. Mainly, I didn't like the society, from the time I was old enough to have 2 sets of friends, the boys I played futbol on Ipanema Beach with from the favela and the boys I went to school with from the FSoA Embassy diplomatic corps. I was already a socialist by the time I returned from Rio at 10. I positively hated Nixon and Vietnam. I've been disgusted by the politics, consumerism and the plastic world of Big Yellow Taxi my whole life. So I dropped out of it and did what I liked. I coached a lot of good gymmies along the way. It was fun.

I don't doubt this statement. I really liked your explanation of genes previously. Perhaps the only difference between us comes down to a peculiar characteristic.....an ability perhaps, as opposed to raw intelligence.
I make a claim of being a polymath only within a small set of topics, make connections others can't and I can generally find solutions to problems that other people find intractable. I then deliver a result. Results, as it turns out, can be quite lucrative. A small difference really, but on such small things can a life turn.
Quote from: REOn this particular topic, besides being smart, I have a pretty thorough experience also both my own and acquaintance with others. So I think I can justifiably say I present a well informed opinion.
RE
We are all older here, and have pretty thorough experience, on our own, and via acquitance with others. I would consider your opinion generally more informed than not (dependning on topic), yes. Particularly if the obvious biases are removed, but that can be done relatively easily, and they aren't as hard coded into your doom views as most.
I can present well informed opinion. In my world it is mostly referred to as analysis. Sometimes I choose to make them more than well informed. Those are designed to be irrefutable. Such is science.

Plenty smart enough, and you have the added and VERY important quality of having CFS(Common Fucking Sense), which many very smart people lack. 1:100 puts your IQ at 135, which I would guess to be about right. I come in at ~155 on Wechsler (most common), although I have tested higher on MABII. I don't buy scores over 160 on any test, there aren't enough people who score that high to properly norm the test.

Last post by K-Dog - Jun 12, 2026, 10:58 AMKnowing Trump is lying his ass off. I have tried to find out what is happening. Every day is now TACO Tuesday.
#1 The Tasmin News agency continues to be slammed with a DoS attack. All you get is a white page. The Low Orbit Ion Cannons from the Pentagon are doing their thing. As I said previously this would not be happening if there were a deal.
What I have found since comes from Indian press. The DoS attack is happening so news of Iran taking out the F-35 base in Jordan does not reach the American people. Iran did not like Trump taking out some of their military sites along the coast of Hormuz, so Iran wasted multiple US bases in response, and Trump does not want the word to get out. So Trump claims peace is around the corner.
And of course, if there is any fessing to the attacks (doubtful). Trump and crew, as always, will claim no Americans got hurt.

US, Iran hit each other again as hopes for quick peace deal fade
The United States launched fresh attacks against Iran on Thursday, prompting Tehran to retaliate, as US leaders accused their counterparts of dragging out negotiations for a deal to end the three-month war.
Pray that there is a special place in hell for a man who would start and drag out a war to dodge accountability for his pedophilia and other crimes.
Pray that there is a hell.
Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) launched a significant, coordinated ballistic missile offensive against multiple U.S. military targets across the Middle East, marking a major direct escalation.
Iran claims its strikes hit critical infrastructure at the Al-Azraq air base in Jordan, including F-35 hangars and the primary command center, as well as targets at the U.S. Fifth Fleet in Bahrain and the Ali al-Salem air base in Kuwait.
While Jordan confirmed its air defenses intercepted several missiles and reported no casualties or damage, Iran asserts it achieved "precise destruction." A direct "decapitation strike" on U.S. military infrastructure. The Middle East is now in a war.
Simultaneously, Hezbollah opened a second front by launching drone, missile, and rocket attacks on Israeli military positions in southern Lebanon.
This coordinated action means the U.S. and Israel are being attacked from the east by Iran and from the north by Hezbollah, moving beyond a proxy war into a coordinated, multi-front military campaign.
Iran claims its strikes were retaliation for U.S. attacks on its air defense systems, which allegedly* followed the downing of a U.S. Apache helicopter. The report concludes that the "fourth battle" Iran promised has begun.
* Iran is not shy about claiming to shoot down an American plane, but Iran denies taking out the helicopter. It looks to have been a false flag to cover the American aggression against the coastal sites.
And Bibi still has naked pictures of Trump. Even more of them than Putin has.

Last post by RE - Jun 12, 2026, 02:49 AMThere must be a lot of ACTION over in Iran tonight! You know how I know? Because on the Google World Newz page, The Iran War summary is the 14th one down the page, with such important global newz events above it as the UK Defence Minister stepping down, the S. Korea ex-Prez getting 30 years for sending drones over N. Korea and a Toronto cop getting shot while investigating an attack on the FSoA consulate. The stories on Iran headlined 14 down the page are all 2-4 days old as well. IOW, there is a total Newz Blackout on anything hapening in Iran, Israel, Gaza, Lebanon or any of the other Arab states in the neighborhood. So it's either NOTHING is really happening there, or it's being squashed. Which do you think it is?
Next deduction is that whatever did really happen, it's not Good Newz for Trumpolini and the AWESOME FSoA MIC. If it was, like say they vaporized Tehran with a Nuke, it would be top of the page. So now I am speculating on what the BAD NEWZ might actually be? Possibly an attack on an Airbase with heavy FSoA grunt casualties? The sinking of an FSoA Navy battleship? A hit on an Aircraft Carrier? I doubt they have the capability to actually SINK a carrier.
So when will we get to find out what's happening tonight? I can't find any newz feeds from Iran.
