It is starting to look as if the Hormuz crisis may be abating, with the US calling off its ill starred project to 'guide' ships through the Strait of Hormuz.

The talk now is of the US proposing a deal whereby Iran would agree to a 'moratorium' on uranium enrichment (for how long exactly?), which if true (far from certain) implies that Iran would actually retain some sort of control or possession of its existing stockpile. In return the US would agree to lift sanctions (in whole or in part?). There would also be some form of lifting of the restraints on shipping via the Strait of Hormuz, though again we don't know whether the Iranians would maintain their stance that they have henceforth overall control.

If there is anything truth to any of this then obviously the demands for Iran to give up its ballistic missile programme or abandon its regional allies (the Houthis and Hezbollah) are being abandoned, as are plans for 'cutting off the head of the snake', ie. regime change and all that....

MESSAGE FROM DETAINED FLOTILLA ACTIVIST TO HIS BABY DAUGHTER
Dear Teresa,
I’m sorry I’m not at home with you right now.

Unfortunately, your father, your mother, and so many people around the world have understood the historic task that we have the responsibility to carry out.

Today, more than a million children are suffering a genocide: they are left to die of hunger, undergo amputations without anesthesia, and endure the pain of horrible, hate-filled ideas, even though they don’t know what Zionism and imperialism are.

I’m sure you miss me terribly; all the mothers and fathers of Palestinian children feel their absence terribly too, and they would give anything to live a life filled with love, happiness, and joy — the kind every human being deserves, regardless of race, religion, ethnicity, or any other characteristic.

Your world will be safer because so many parents have decided to give everything to build a better future for you.

I hope that one day you can understand that, precisely ...

A quick commentary on the "Piss Summit"
I might not be able to upload much more or do lives for a while

My Fellow Duranianss.

Yes, it's happened again. I have been assaulted by a vicious Malware Bot Virus or whatever 911 Socks is and this thing is bad ! 

However I wanted to give you a "peace" of my mind concerning the "Piece" or piss, as Elensky calls it, as this thing fell to pieces before it even happened.

Coincidentally on the very SAME DAY  this crap happened Saudi Arabia DROPPED the US Petrodollar as a buying currency and NO ONE absolutely NO ONE is talking about this fact anywhere !!!

 

Hope to see you all asap.
