Is the working theory that Iran is trying to cause the stock market to go up in the United States? Possibly in coordination with the Trump admin?

Eh to be honest the US really needs to realise it's problems neither begin nor end at Trump. Trump didn't arise out of a vacuum, he came out of a deep seated rot in US society.  My biggest fear is that the US Democrat seriously think the problem goes away with Trump, and upon regaining power will just continue business as usual as if nothing happened. Then act shocked when next election a new Trump like figure appears and wins.  My worse fear is that the Democrats are complicit - as the tone of the main party is less shock at the US' actions but the manner Trump is carrying them out. Less concern about what the US is doing rather than the manner in which Trump talks about it. The silence has been deafening with regard to how the Democrats have responded to this war. The fact Biden kept the immigration internment camps was the first sign of that.  Edit:  Like its the same naivety as the Venezuelans and Iranians who thought the US were liberating them. Toppling the head of the government is meaningless if the forces that put them there still exist.  Edit 2: Incidentally it's why i get so annoyed at how Israel handles the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.  Yes, Hamas are a terrorist group whose views are radicalised beyond the pale, but the basic root for extremism in the Palestinian community is a belief that Israel steals their homeland and murders their people. Trying to 'eliminate' Hamas by flattening and occupying half of Gaza is the most counterproductive approach ever - as you are just creating more Palestinians with a visceral hatred of Israel and want to see it burn. Like what Israel does is equivalent to if the UK tried to stop IRA attacks by nuking Ireland.  Everyone on this planet seems to always think the solution is violence when diplomacy and willingness to compromise would achieve better long term results.

And it's actually not that hard to do the little things that add up to huge change over the long run. But the current day doomerism propaganda would have one believe *"it's not worth it and the change would be outpaced by evil blah blah blah chronically online slop*" People need to realize coalition building in local politics is the clearest path to change.

nissen1502 1 day ago +5
You confuse realism with doomerism. Your naivety to think you can just get into politics and make any large scale change is unsettling. The issues stem from the politicians being corrupt and it all being a friends and family group. Good luck getting in there talking about stuff that will help the regular person and not the elite.

jabba-thederp 1 day ago
I know people doing the work and am witnessing it happen live. It's easy for you to say all that when the only thing you do is complain on social media, but maybe things aren't as bleak as these "friends and family" groups make them seem? Stop falling for their propaganda. Obviously you don't just talk about stuff. It's about action. It's not like "hey guys I'm Karen I'm the new girl and let me lay out my personal agenda it includes lowering our own salaries as well as pushing for ranked choice voting, better worker protections, and unionizing the local government offices!✌️😁Hugs and kisses!" Like no what the f***??? Obviously not. Not sure why u strawman me as if I'm saying to just walk in and lay it all out. You go slow, finesse your way in. Talk to like minded people. Convince your candidate to answer the phone personally. Tell them what ads are cringe and turning away voters. Persuade people to stop purity testing and get together as a coalition. And of course, convince people to let go of the hopelessness and, instead, to act. The little things that turn YOU into a power player. You wouldn't know, evidently. What do you do come election season to make the country better? What accredited institutions have you donated to and volunteered for? What workers have you personally helped through crisis? You just came here to argue a strawman in your head because I struck a nerve in you. You *do* understand that you feeling hopeless about making large scale local change is YOUR perspective right? And people can have different perspectives? This brainrot populist framing of "good luck it's all elite corruption in every level of politics in all 3,143 counties and every last one of the people in them is bad because the Internet told me so" is EXACTLY what got MAGA elected and appealed to them. It's EXACTLY what got them to blindly follow their own elected Republicans and trust that every last thing they do is the right thing. Sure you're entitled to your depressing perspective unfortunately but I'm speaking on the actual reality that I've witnessed factually, while you just come and insult my intelligence, call me naive and confused, condescend to me, and then patronize me with a "good luck" without even explaining *why* you're right. You ok? I get it. Shit can feel dark. Don't take it out on your fellow citizen what the f***? You can keep complaining while I first hand witness people making the country a better place. It's a thankless job after all. But don't spread the Elite's propaganda under the guise of "I'm just being realistic here and we're all fucked so let's just roll over and take it." I know people that will have made your life better personally in 6 years and you'll still be complaining and not even recognizing it. On their behalf, you're welcome.

He obviously wants a grandiose capitulation from the Iranians so he aliment is permanent circus. Meanwhile, the Iranians are trying to establish long term deterrence and save face. The US has no more pressure levers, no allies to back them up and Iran is holding on. This is dead end and the shit show will drag on. I am positively furious that the world has to endure this d*ck head

> Meanwhile, the Iranians are trying to establish long term deterrence It reminds me of the scene in enders game (the book version) where Ender fights the bully at school in..such a way that he 'wins all future fights' too. He basically horrified the onlookers to such an extent and did so much damage to the kid that Ender prevented those 'future fights' by treating that fight as the existential crisis that it was.

Well, they certainly know how to manipulate Trump. They’ve put him in a no-win dilemma here. If he takes the deal gas prices come down (eventually) but he looks weak. If he doesn’t take the deal gas prices continue to rise, along with the price of everything else, and he has to continue a very unpopular, expensive war. The Art of the Deal guy is being played like a fiddle. Trump is in way over his head here.

I was going to say the same thing. But I was going to preface my statement with that. Because I find the entire 'offer' laughable. I mean, don't get me wrong, I want this war OVER. (I'm in the US.) But this is how this 'offer' comes across: Iran says 'We'll give you opening the strait--with the caveat that we get to control it, toll it and let who want through, oh, and no nuclear talks until later. You give us removing the blockade and ending the war. Like, how is that an 'offer?' it's basically EXACTLY what Iran has been saying for weeks now. The US gets nothing in return. There's no compromise.

Expect to see more confusion from both sides per public remarks. But that is the nature of politics and diplomacy when both sides have differing objectives. The US proposal is surprisingly generous to Iran and my understanding that the key objective is nuclear above proxies and regime and whatnot.

ShipTheRiver 1 day ago +12
On one side you have the most dishonest and corrupt US administration in history, and on the other side you have a half destroyed, totally fragmented mess of a leadership structure full of people who are either terrorists, terrified for themselves, or both. It’s an impossible situation information-wise. The only thing you can trust is whatever physically changes on the ground over there.

I’m not an expert in this, but what is wrong with a JCPOA-like deal that allows surveillance of all their nuclear activities other than the fact that they will use the funds to further strengthen their grip in the region? The Iranian regime is the problem, not just its nuclear program.
1
DateMasamusubi 1 day ago +13
It had its flaws. Observers could not enter military sites and it was set to sunset after a decade or so. The idea was that lifting sanctions would increase funding for Iran's proxies and nuclear enrichment, increasing the cost of conflict in 2030. In effect, this is what Iran did, bolstering Hizbullah and Houthis in Lebanon and Yemen + proxy militias in Iraq. It aggravated relations with the GCC, notably S.Arabia. If the global community is committed to a nuclear free world, the idea is to have a zero tolerance, maximalist approach to show other countries what the price of enrichment and arms development would entail. I can't say which school of thought is correct or not. We have seen Pakistan, India, and North Korea join the nuclear club and it is obvious that more countries with nukes would be a less safe world. Some believe that liberalisation through development is the way, others cite how China has become increasingly authoritarian since ascending to WTO in 2000.
13
CryptoThroway8205 1 day ago +1
Pakistan and India never allowed IAEA inspectors, Israel banned them before getting nukes, North Korea dgaf and also banned inspectors betting neither China nor the US would invade to stop them. Fair point they weren't allowed to inspect military facilities. JCPOA was set to sunset but Iran rejected Biden's efforts to renovate them because they wanted assurances 47th wouldn't just rip up the agreement again. It's easy to say screw it and go to war. Negotiations are hard.

It’s now apparent we’re not getting regime change without a ground invasion. And we’re not willing to do a ground invasion. That leaves you with 2 options: 1. Continue war indefinitely with all the associated costs (strait stays closed etc) 2. Accept that you’re not getting regime change and ask for basically the JCPOA.

Iran is gonna have to come to fact that no one on the planet outside of the shia militia they fund wants them to have a nuclear weapon. And no matter how much of pedophile rapist piece of shit Trump is, for starting this war. It's not gonna end with favorable conditions for Iran that allow them to continue their nuclear program. They are willing to kill thousands of their own people to stay in power, allowing them nuclear refinement is more idiotic than re-electing trump.

iamstephen1128 1 day ago +7
And yet the stupidity of pulling out of the JCPOA and bombing them into oblivion multiple times while purporting to be negotiating is only supporting the hardliner position that Iran will continue to face existential threats from the US and Israel until it has a nuclear (or similarly effective) deterrent. Anybody who tells you that Iran doesn't come out of this mess in a stronger position relative to that under the JCPOA is delusional
