PRESIDENT TRUMP TO BLOCKADE STRAITS OF HORMUZ

BLOCKING THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ

By: Derek Varsalona

Today, inflation will go up.  So will the gas prices around the world.  President Trump and the rest of the world are working to block the Straight of Hormuz.

The United States military will block the Straits of Hormuz today in a military operation.  I do not agree with this measure.  This measure is only going to amount to more blood shed and more violence.  It is going to impede trade and make life much more expensive as oil and other commodities are going to have trouble passing through.  President Trump should rethink this option.  As always, comments are accepted.

VIUCE PRESIDENT JD VANCE LOSES CREDIBILITY ON IRAN

 AMERICA LOSES CREDIBILITY WITH IRAN

By: Derek Varsalona

Vice President JD Vance concluded peace talks with Iran with nothing to show for all the effort that America put forth.  Vice President Vance claimed that America had put forth its best final offer but still came up short.  

The fact of the matter is, the American deal for success was a no-go from the very beginning.  If I were Iranian, I would not have taken the deal.  America got played in the process, and the people of America are in a less safe world since Vice President JD Vance has screwed up and has nothing to show for the time and effort that he has put into running for the peace deal.

What is going to happen next is anyone's guess.  But I do think the disabled are going to be in a far worse place with the Americans backing out of the peace process in Iran.   Let us face it from the get-go, Americans never wanted peace with Iran.  That is because America has never met a war it didn't like, even going as far back as the American Revolution.  Even in Vietnam, when Communism had no chance of coming to America until President Barack Obama arrived on stage, America has always been hell-bent on a great war.  A great war is good for the defense industry and for business.  A great war is good for the news industry as it gives people something to talk about while putting correspondents in harm's way.

I agree with Vice President JD Vance.  America did put its best effort forward.  But America's best days are far behind us, and we are in a worse and more unsafe place due to Vice President JD Vance's lack of a spine and inept leadership, not striking a deal.  As always, comments are accepted.

LET US GIVE PEACE A CHANCE IN THE MIDDLE EAST

 US AND IRAN PEACE TALKS

By: Derek Varsalona

Finally, someone is listening.  My call for peace talks is going somewhere as the United States, Iran, and Pakistan are engaged in talks as of this morning, or at least today.  This is a joyous day for peace talks in the Middle East.  Pakistan is a key mediator in the deal.  Lebanon wants to talk.  I say let as many sides talk as possible, the more the better.  Giving peace a chance is the way to go in this situation, and it is a far better situation than an all-out war.

Today is a day to be celebrated as peace talks between Iran, Pakistan, and the United States are within reach.  President Trump should be given a Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts.  Bibi, on the other hand, the war monger who does not want peace can burn in hell.  As always, comments are accepted.

Giving Peace a chance.

IRAN GETS COLD SHOULDER IN US DEAL

IRAN GETS COLD SHOULDER IN US DEAL

By: Derek Varsalona

Iran should never have made a deal with the United States.  They were always going to get the short end of the stick when it comes to diplomacy.  

President Trump threatened Iran not to charge fees for passage into the Straits of Hormuz.  How is Iran supposed to make their money if you cut off their Uranium and they are not allowed to charge a tariff on the passage into the Straight of Hormuz?  As of right now, the ceasefire in Iran is causing hardship for Iran and its people.  They are having a hard time making money, and President Trump is single-handedly starving the country out of existence.  In the end, it is the common folks of Iran who are going to be hurt by the loss of revenue and job security.  The people in power are always well taken care of.

For the nation of Iran, a cease-fire is not economically viable.  They need to keep fighting to make money.  A war for Iran means that they can control the oil prices, and with higher gasoline prices, the better off Iran is, and the rest of the world suffers.   As always, comments accepted.

WITH ISRAEL LURKING ITS UGLKY HEAD THERE IS NO HOPE FOR PEACE

WITH ISRAEL AROUND THEIR IS NO HOPE FOR PEACE

By: Derek Varsalona

Israel definitely is the Little Devil that could.  With Israel lurking its ugly head, there is no hope for peace in the Middle East.  Both Israel and Iran are freedom fighters.  Iran claims that attacks on their interest are a grave threat to any peace negotiations and that peace talks are now unreasonable.  That seems to be the case with Israel.

You see, Israel does not want to live in peace.  They want to live in a state of chaos and constant war with the Arab World.  The Arab World is right that  Israel is invading and taking the place of Palestine.  It was America and the Allies that caused this mess after World War II, when they developed Israel, which acts as a proxy for the 51st state.

There is no hope for peace in the Middle East.  This is a war for Arab survival.  As always, comments are accepted.

PRESIDENT TRUMP SHOULD GET A NOBEL PEACE PRIZE

PRESIDENT TRUMP SHOULD GET A NOBEL PEACE PRIZE

By: Derek Varsalona

President Trump went from hell fury dictator in chief to ministry of peace and justice overnight, it seems.  Just two weeks ago, it was raining hellfire on Iran, with the Little Satan Israel and Major Satan United States leading the charge.

But over the course of two weeks, something changed.  The man, President Donald Trump, the greatest President in the world, has changed overnight, did a 180-degree turn, and made an effort for peace in the Middle East.  For that, the man should be commended and hailed as the prince of peace instead of the prince of darkness.

President Trump threatened to wipe out a civilization overnight when Epic Fury rained down on Iran.  It was going to be the long-lost civilization.  Then overnight, things changed course.  Instead of fighting with clenched fists, President Trump has welcomed Iran and Israel with open arms.  Maybe the three United States, Iran, and Israel, should meet at the White House and break bread?  This is a joyous day for peace relations in the Middle East.

I can see changes occurring overnight.  Oil prices and the cost of living are going to go down around the world, while the value of life will remain high. Thank you for choosing peace, President Trump.  As always, comments accepted.

AMERICA IS A WAR MONGORING NATION

 AMERICA IS A WAR-MONGERING NATION

By: Derek Varsalona

Let's face it, America, you are a war-mongering nation.  You love war very much.  It is entertaining.  A great war is great for oil prices and oil barons who support the Republican Party.  A great war is great for the media industry, as the people get hooked on watching the death and destruction like a real-time reality show gone mad.

President Trump is putting on a show for the whole world to see.  It might just be the next great thing from the circus, only that this clown is too real for the real world.  President Trump claims that Iran's response is not good enough for his liking.  Well, then, screw him.  You see, my friends, President Trump never wanted a peace plan in the Middle East.  He never wanted a Pulitzer Prize nor a Nobel Peace Prize.  He wanted total inhalation of the Iranian regime, and that is what he is going to get.  As always, comment an accepted.
