“Meanwhile, Iran is canceling inspections. They’re cutting off access to international nuclear monitors. That means they can now develop a nuclear weapon without oversight — and Trump is letting it happen.”

Agreed Lev, all of this is a distraction. Instead of answering questions about whether the nuclear program has been completely destroyed, they’re going after journalists and whistleblowers (deny, deflect and project or DD&P).

Additionally, this is exactly what they did at DOJ, and the FBI, or anyone who questions Trump’s lies! Ad hominem attacks, along with DD&P. This is literally the stuff out of Orwell’s 1984.

Furthermore, this ceasefire is a joke. Trump has already moved on; he doesn’t even believe a disarmament deal needs to be negotiated because the bombing was successful.

So now Iran gets to make a bomb without even International monitoring since the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) is no longer allowed to monitor their nuclear program.

Seriously, does anyone think Netanyahu is going to honor this ceasefire? If Iran can’t have a bomb, and this was and still is Netanyahu’s and Israel’s stated goal, then how in gods name are they going to sit back and allow Iran the opportunity to make one? If we weren’t heading to war before, we are now since Iran realizes the only way to insure they aren’t attacked again is to have a nuclear deterrent.

Bottom line: This entire affair is ludicrous on its face, and because of Trump’s intransigence, impulsiveness, and recklessness; the world is increasingly worse off for the matter!

These are the times when I don't worry about what I do know. It's what we don't know yet that worries me. I'm sticking with Lev, Malcolm, Michael,and Aaron.

Lev, what do you think about the connection to the Rapture and end times supported by these crazy christian crusaders? This must have relevance too for this move, right? Check out Ruth BenGhiat’s piece:

Great insight Lev, sure does feel like our Supreme Court is totally capitulating to everything this GOP regime is doing. We're in bad shape Lev as a country.
