Pete And Bob
This is Muhammad Saeed al-Sahhaf. You would know him better as Baghdad Bob or Comical Ali. He was Iraq’s information minister back in 2003 when the US, under George Bush, invaded Iraq Bob was known for his outlandish quotes that defied reality. He would give daily press briefings, telling how the US were getting defeated…

Upping The Ante
Donald, believe it or not, I’m actually pulling for you and I’m hoping your latest plan, called ‘Project Freedom’, successfully brings this war to an end and actually does open up the Strait of Hormuz. You have backed yourself into a corner and if this doesn’t work, then we are all in trouble. The average…

No Ace In Hole
Donald, I know we had this talk yesterday, but you keep saying that this war is over and frankly you won this war. Well, Iran made their latest peace proposal. It really doesn’t seem as if they know that you’re winning. Look at what they’re saying. They don’t want the ceasefire to continue, rather they…

So Much Winning
Donald, you keep saying that you won this war. You keep saying that Iran desperately wants to negotiate a deal with the US. You keep saying that, but there’s no evidence of Iran, wanting a deal and the war being won. You even had Pete Hegseth testifying this week that the American public supports the…

TACO Bully Outplayed
Donald, plain and simple, you are a bully used to getting your own way. Last year and a half, however, you have run into opponents who won’t back down. Your tariff wars really have backfired on you. It has made you turn TACO (Trump Always Chickens Out) a few times, same thing with Greenland and…

Long Game My Ass
This is what Press Secretary Karoline Nitwit (yes I know beneath my dignity, but still, I cannot help it) said about the current state of negotiations with Iran. “Anyone who cannot see President Trump’s tactics to play the long game are either stupid or willfully ignorant.” Karoline, do you actually know what’s coming out of…

Here We Go Again
Like, seriously, here we go again. It is like déjà vu all over again and again and again. Iran announced late last week that the Strait of Hormuz would be open and stay open. The stock market jumped by 1000 points and the price of oil went down by 10% and all was good in…

With A Friend Like This
Donald, do you remember the good times, when leaders and countries would fall over themselves complimenting you, praising you, trying to get into your good graces? I guess those days are done aren’t they Donald? You did this to yourself. NATO is just shunning you on this whole Iran thing. You started this without consulting…

Boxed In
Iran has been around in its various forms for 2800 years. The US has only been around about 400 years. Iran has been playing this game a whole lot longer and it is showing. Just a week ago, on Easter Sunday, Trump demanded that Iran open ‘the fuckin strait’ or the Iranian civilization would be…

Let’s Make A Deal
Negotiators from the US, led by JD Vance, and Iran, were to meet in Pakistan on Saturday. As I chirp this, while it is still early Saturday morning, where I am it is late Saturday afternoon in Pakistan. The negotiators are just starting to meet now. Both sides, earlier in the day met with the…
