The Daily Doom

Did Trumpian lies hit a new climax, or are the ceasefire contradictions just the fog of war? Iran said this morning there is no ceasefire, never was a ceasefire. They even claimed Trump was lying to try to force a ceasefire into play, and to prove its point Iran lobbed some more missiles into Israel. So, the story started off this morning, anyway, as Bill Bonner provided the following synopsis of what sounded like a fake-news ceasefire:The big news came this morning.

As I wrote when the attack by Israel on Iran’s nuclear facilities began, that attack was NOT the start of Word War III. That may have just been proven already today when Trump, even in Netanyahu’s words, went where no US president has gone before, and everyone waited for Iran’s fierce response. Almost crickets.

While I lost one paying subscriber who told me how stupid I am about the Israel-Iran war (and certainly gained none for my views), the news headlines today about that war and about the immigration “war” are coming in exactly as I forecast for both wars, so I have nothing to apologize for, unless getting it right is a flaw when it was not what someone wanted to believe. However, there is stupidity to be found.

Having written that this war is not WWIII, that doesn’t mean I think it will be inconsequential or harmless to the US or to Israel. All wars can be and usually are very harmful. What I meant is that it is not inherently going to be the long-feared pan-Arab-Israeli war that people believed any war between Israel and Iran would quickly turn into. As I laid out, Iran has no allies left with the stamina to take on such a fight or with the desire to support Iran in such a conflict against Israel.
