Don't Fall For The Propaganda That A Peace Deal Is Imminent Based On The words Of A Demented Old Man [View all]

Thousands of news outlets are reporting that a peace plan is imminent causing oil to drop 6% and the stock market to rise.

Who from the US was in on the negotiations of this peace plan? Give me 1 name.

Iran and Pakistan came up with a peace plan that is absolutely nothing like what Krasnov is saying was agreed upon. Give me 1 item in the peace plan that Iran and the US agree with, just 1. What is going on is great Kabuki Theater and those bogus articles are being posted here.

I saw another headline that stated, ships are getting through Hormuz. The ships that are getting through Hormuz have been approved by Iran to get through, most are going to China.

Iran wants control of the ships that pass through Hormuz - the US wants open waters

Iran wants its money unfrozen immediately - the US will only unfreeze Iran's money conditionally

The enrichment of uranium will be discussed at a later date - Krasnov falsely says that Iran has agreed to get rid of its enriched uranium

Iran wants all fighting to stop, including in Lebanon - Krasnov says that it's up to Israel if fighting stops in Lebanon. (where has Israel been in these peace negotiations?)

Iran wants sanctions removed immediately - Krasnov says they will removed conditionally.

IMO, Krasnov's fossil fuel friends want to keep crude oil around $97/barrel until Krasnov can figure out how to surrender to Iran and save face. It's going to be hard to do seeing as a lot of countries are using up their strategic oil reserves. By the bye, the oil from our strategic oil reserves is going to Europe, more profit to be made over there.

Wake up people, what Krasnov did by going to war was make Iran relevant in the world. No way in hell is Iran going to give up its newly given power, control of Hormuz. Krasnov went to war with Iran to open up Hormuz that was already open. (give me a break) Krasnov went to war for regime change which failed on Day 1. A peace plan is imminent, and Lucy is going to let Charley Brown kick the football.
