Someone made a 9-figure trade shorting oil before Trump announced cease fire

Don really wanted to TACO and these insider info trades may be a huge reason


its the other way around, people inside his circle know what he's going to do before the market does and profit accordingly. its straight up corruption

"iran is weeks away from a nuke" - bibi, every month, for 40 years.

"wait wait, my shoes aren't tied yet" - bibi, also.


It doesn’t contradict, but nice try

The crux is how well this deal was actually working, how effective it actually was at keeping Iran's nuclear capabilities at bay. Those politicians, in Washington but also in the EU, who were politically beholden to the Iran Nuclear Deal kept insisting that the Iranian side was fully cooperative, others disagreed heavily. It's been a long time, I don't remember every last detail, but the notion that Iran was telling the truth back then is highly doubtful in my mind. Of fucking course they were striving for the bomb.


You do know that this is Benjamin Netanyahu's argument right, for the last 30 years. "Iran is close to getting / months away / weeks away...from making a bomb." I dont agree.
With the way the US is now bombing Iran though, Iran would be foolish not to get a deterrent.

basically its like beating someone half to death because they said they were going to get a gun. you're damn sure they're going to want a bomb now. and with a more radical govt, a more radical populace, and a more unified populace. anyone on the fence is feeling patriotic now.

the worst part is their retort "we'll just batter them enough that they cant" is actually just as bad. even an Iran without a nuke is still a massive issue in their enraged state. and a more inexperienced leadership with more radical generals means more willingness to fund terror in the region. they'll never earnestly negotiate again, and we'll have to fight at least 1 full war if not 2-3 small wars, then invariable deal with a failed state terrorist regime that has 10x more money, resources, or people than any of the others that have given us fits for decades. whatever comes from Iran will make ISIS look like kittens.

Are you some kind of expert in human psychology and middle eastern behavior?
If not, then you just mumble without any basic idea of what is going on.
