Just after 6PM, former reality show host Donald Trump announced that a short-term cease-fire between Israel and Iran has been arranged, though there was no independent confirmation through reliable news media. It looks like an effort to either extract himself from a supposedly bold, decisive strike on Iran that did little to eliminate that nation’s nuclear program.
It’s been a busy day. Late this morning East Coast time, Iran attacked US military base in Qatar, and Trump said there were no deaths.
Choreography! Trump had a heads-up from Iran on today’s attack on a US military base in Qatar. That seems to be a factor in Trump saying it’s “time for peace.”
Trouble in antisemitic paradise: the Proud Boys are not happy with Trump.
