Yes.
Which, by the way, you didn't answer directly.
Instead you told me about the Iranians you know.
So I thought I'd share one of the Iranians I knew.

Again, I dislike making assumptions and try not to (strike rate of about 60% there LOL but better than it used to be!) so I have PM'd you a couple of books which I think are very important if interested in the region.

Can you PM me the book names or post them on here. Always want to know more on the region.
 
Trump’s “victory timeline” claims.

Mar 3: "We won the war."
Mar 7: "We defeated Iran."
Mar 9: "We must attack Iran."
Mar 9: "The war is ending almost completely, and very beautifully."
Mar 11: “You never like to say too ⁠early you won. We won. In the first hour it was over.” Mar 12: "We did win, but we haven't won completely yet."
Mar 13: "We won the war."
Mar 14: "Please help us."
Mar 15: "If you don't help us, I will certainly remember it."
Mar 16: "Actually, we don't need any help at all."
Mar 16: "I was just testing to see who's listening to me."
Mar 16: "If NATO doesn't help, they will suffer something very bad."
Mar 17: "We neither need nor want NATO's help."
Mar 17: "I don't need Congressional approval to withdraw from NATO."
Mar 18: "Our allies must cooperate in reopening the Strait of Hormuz."
Mar 19: "US allies need to get a grip - step up and help open the Strait of Hormuz."
Mar 20: "NATO are cowards."
Mar 21: "The Strait of Hormuz must be protected by the countries that use it. We don't use it, we don't need to open it."
Mar 22: "This is the last time. I will give Iran 48 hours. Open the strait"
Mar 22: "Iran is Dead"

Mar 23: "We had very good and productive talks with Iran."
Mar 24: "We’re making progress."
Mar 25: “They gave us a present and the present arrived today. And it was a very big present worth a tremendous amount of money. I’m not going to tell you what that present is, but it was a very significant prize.” Mar 26: "Make a deal, or we’ll just keep blowing them away."
Mar 27: "We don’t have to be there for NATO."
Mar 28: No major quote
Mar 29: Claimed talks were progressing
Mar 30: "Open the Strait of Hormuz immediately, or face devastating consequences."
Mar 31: Claimed a deal was "very close" and that Iran would "do the right thing"
Apr 1: "We’ll see what happens very soon."
Apr 2: Repeated that a deal was likely, while warning of continued strikes if not
Apr 3: "Something big is going to happen."
Apr 4: Said Iran must comply "immediately" or face further consequences.

Apr 5: "Open the fudgein' Strait, you crazy bastards, or you'll be living in Hell - JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah."

Still hoping it’s all bluster or that there are people around him that would stop that from happening. But I am not so sure. Scary times.

Well you never know with the endless drivel pouring out of that orange mouth. Moat of it is just verbal diarrhea. You wouldn't trust an raving lunatic with the nuclear codes, though. Fingers crossed there are still adults in the room, although I wouldn't be sure.
 
Apparently Vance has been very involved in the attempts at negotiations. So of course today, at this critical juncture, he’s obviously doing everything possible to find a resolution. Oh. No. He’s busy with the more important task of electioneering for Viktor Orban.
Priorities. When Russia calls…
 
Worryingly, it strikes me that Iran are basically trying to call his bluff here, make him look silly by him not enacting anything despite all his pathetic bullying.

Lethal game to play though, because I genuinely think he is stupid enough to go through with something world changing. Normally, I’d love to see someone like that on trial for war crimes, but if he caught a bullet at some point today the world would be in a much better place immediately afterwards.

I genuinely think the Americans that elected him a SECOND time have done a so much damage to the world by giving him power again, and should be massively ashamed of themselves (they won’t be) he’s an absolute head case.

Deadline Don....it's scary because his pathetic forever pushed out deadlines eventually butt up against his vanity and self obsessed orange smug face.

Making himself look stupid will most likely be avoided by doing something stupid.

There is no going back from this either way. He either drops a Nuclear weapon or he is shown to be bluffing once again but this time it’s his biggest hand.

We can only hope he does something moderately stupid, like conventionally bombing a water plant or two, and then claims full victory in typical Trump fashion - before he gets caught up in another rambling distraction of whatever, and forgets about Iran.
 
Its amazing that over the last GHod knows how many years the fear and rhetoric has been sown that we should be worried about Russia, North Korea and Iran using nuclear weapons, when the real aggressors who twerk about their nuclear power are the unhinged Yanks. Looking at Trumps statements about how he could and intends to use weapons, Iran really ain't the problem here
