Art of the deal, ladies and gentlemen

> “That’s the sort of thing they could have access to, funded by the Gulf coast coalition, so long as they honor their end of the obligation..." How does that differ from "is theoretically possible, if a whole bunch of people who pretty much hate them decide to give them $billions anyway"?

All of this goes to show just how good of a deal the JCPOA was. It took 20 months to negotiate, it had everything the US had ever asked Iran to cooperate on, and Iran was not only cooperating but on a path away from extremism. It was blown up out of pure spite, jealousy, and meddling from Netanyahu. Right now, it looks like we're looking at a deal that is significantly worse in every conceivable way.

The side paying reparations is the side that lost the war.

That's roughly the same amount US has given Israel since 1948. Probably not directly comparable, mind you, but still a funny coincidence.

There goes the US, losing a war again. This was a completely predictable to anyone with a basic understanding of either economics or geopolitics, and yet for weeks after the war broke out this forum was filled with people claiming it would be over in a matter of days with a guaranteed US victory. I predict these people will learn nothing, and they will continue to blindly support the fascist trump administration. After all, we're in a new age and conservatives have abandoned facts in favor of their feelings and fears.
