QOTD: To Prevent A Peace Deal

 

As the lawless and mentally disturbed Malignant Fascist's war on Iran enters its third destructive week, the hubris and ineptitude of two New York real estate hustlers "negotiating" with Iran appears to have been intentionally botched (surprise!):

"After months of letting Putin make a mockery of negotiations with Ukraine, Kushner and Witkoff sat down with Iranian negotiators in Geneva in February. They gave away the game by choosing not to bring nuclear technical experts. Witkoff expressed surprise that Iran produces centrifuges — it has for decades — called Iran’s IR-6 enrichment device 'probably the most advanced centrifuge in the world' (it isn’t), and referred to Natanz, Fordow, and Esfahan as 'industrial reactors' (they are enrichment facilities, not reactors, one can learn by Googling). One of the most clownish moments in the history of diplomacy came when Witkoff put on his red nose and suggested that the Tehran Research Reactor — a facility the United States itself built for Iran in 1967 — was a secret weapons site.

Third parties present say Witkoff then badly misread the Iranians’ statement about their enriched uranium stockpile: where they were saying all of it could go away in a deal, he heard a boast about having enough for eleven bombs. The Omani foreign minister flew to Washington to try to tell America that a breakthrough offer was on the table.

The bombs fell thirty-six hours later, to prevent a peace deal."  (our emphasis)

A significant part of the linked article by Jason Sattler (LOLGOP) describes Jared Kushner's unparalleled corruption, cutting personal deals while representing the U.S.

The Witkoff - Kushner duo have zero expertise in nuclear weapons matters, and misrepresented Iran's position to the MF, apparently with the approval of Bibi "Bomb Bomb" Netanyahu's regime.  There are reports in the linked article, above, that the clueless duo was also providing information on the "negotiations" to members of Bomb Bomb's government, prominently their intelligence service Mossad.  No wonder the MF's "America First" cult is up in arms (no pun intended).

 

QOTD -- Look Around You

 

"... We don't know enough about life to know what the good news is and what the bad news is. That’s why we all push around polls hoping to confirm our hunches and batter people over the head with them.

"We can’t be sure what’s fearsome or what’s overreach. We don’t really know why people find the Good News in a guy who’s closer to the antichrist than anything in the Bible. And we can only imagine what will wake them up to what's so obvious we can't stop seeing it.

"So, where do we look for certainty or even a hint of it? Around us.

"Everything we do makes it easier for our neighbors to stand up or sit down for this regime. We all know there’s a crisis coming that will force all who pay attention to make a choice that could define the rest of their lives.

"Will people do it? In most cases, it depends on what they see us doing next." --  Jason Sattler, at TheFarce.org, in "Why Your Neighbors Need You To Oppose Fascism."  The more people are seen standing up to the Malignant Fascist's galloping fascist "slow civil war" the better, and the sooner the better.  The more we're seen and heard, the better chance we have to avoid going from a "slow civil war" to a fast and violent one.  We may not avoid the latter fate, but we most certainly won't if we fail to fight what's going on today in our country.
