Iran Deal
The whole god-damned planet except Trump, Israel, the Saudis and their satellites think the deal should stay in place. Who are the rogue nations again?
Our Liberal Media
Even the #NeverTrumpers agree with and support Trump as long as he's following the Israeli line on Iran and the middle east. Here's a good post on the NYT, Bret Stephens and the #NeverTrump farce including this.
Our Liberal Media #2
The WP Carries water for Israel too. Israel had been hitting Syria for a few days but now claims Iran hit first. The WP gives the Israeli line to the American people.
Also.... every article I've seen from the WP for a month has been behind a paywall but this pure propaganda is on the free side, imagine that.
Propaganda Tweet
Closer to the Truth
A pretty good rundown of how the neocon-Israeli firsters took over the Iraq war planning and are repeating the process with Iran.
Ian Welsh - This should be front page on every US paper.

The Art of breaking a Deal. Art? Closer to War Crime.
About That Swamp or The "Real" Deal
Adelson give 30 million to R's. Within one day of Trump breaking the Iran Deal.
Something I hadn't thought of. You want Americans to quit bitching about high US drug prices? Just raise the price for the rest of the world.

Thus we have a curious situation in which a New York Times columnist feels that the president is too unstable to be trusted with a Twitter account, but is capable of renegotiating complex diplomatic frameworks and pursuing regime change in the Middle East

In the real world.....May - August weather improving for Middle East military operations. And perfect storm brewing. 1. Iran pushing Israeli redlines in Syria; 2. Israel pushing back preemptively (at times); 3. Trump withdrawal from JCPOA may lead to direct US pressure in Iran.A big kaboom coming?— Aaron David Miller (@aarondmiller2) May 10, 2018
- 1. Israel has been bombing the shit out of Syria claiming that its hitting Iranian forces.
- 2. "pushing back preemptively" How the fuck do you do that?
- 3. is probably right on the money.

About That Swamp or The "Real" Deal
Adelson give 30 million to R's. Within one day of Trump breaking the Iran Deal.
Las Vegas casino mogul Sheldon Adelson has cut a $30 million check to the House GOP-aligned Congressional Leadership Fund, a massive cash infusion that top Republicans hope will alter the party's electoral outlook six months before Election Day.As fucking Swampy as you can get. More on Adelson.
Adelson, for his part, was Trump and the GOP’s biggest campaign supporter. He and his wife Miriam contributed $35 million in outside spending to elect Trump, $20 million to the Congressional Leadership Fund (a super PAC exclusively dedicated to securing a GOP majority in the House of Representatives), and $35 million to the Senate Leadership Fund (the Senate counterpart) in the 2016 election cycle.Even More
Discussing why Adelson was committed to donate “limitless” amounts of money to influence the elections, the New York Times reasoned: “The first answer is clearly his disgust for a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, supported by President Obama and most Israelis. He considers a Palestinian state “a stepping stone for the destruction of Israel and the Jewish people,” and has called the Palestinian prime minister a terrorist. He is even further to the right than the main pro-Israeli lobbying group, the American Israeli Public Affairs Committee, which he broke with in 2007 when it supported economic aid to the Palestinians.”[26]
Oh. And Paul Ryan is a dick....to avoid campaign finance laws.
Swampy
With the Adelson donation above, Cohen/Trump/Stormy/ATT scandal, the Scott Pruitt scandals this might be the most openly corrupt administration in US History.
Health CareWhen Ryan (R-Wis.) left the room, Coleman made the ask and secured the $30 million contribution.I have a vision of all of the congressional R's standing in Trumps office begging him to break the deal because uncle Sheldon had promised them a boat-load of money if they could get the big dummy to act on Iran.
