So the Wall Street Journal, owned by Rupert Murdoch, is “the left”?

Thank you for the update, I didn’t realize he’d been turned.

The Trump-Iran Deal Allows Tehran to Immediately Sell Oil
The agreement also waives banking and transport sanctions to facilitate transactions, an early financial benefit

By the way, this is not “in the future”. The oil tankers are already traveling through the strait now, putting money in Iran’s pocket.

United Against Nuclear Iran, a nonprofit, said an Iranian supertanker carrying crude oil, Diona, had left Chabahar port, crossed the U.S. blockade and was sailing out of the Gulf of Oman on Tuesday with its location tracker active. It was the first such transit since the start of the U.S. blockade in April. Shortly afterward, a second supertanker, Hero II, also crossed the blockade, according to the nonprofit and ship-tracking data from MarineTraffic.

I know it’s hard to understand, but almost every time there’s a war somebody wins. Somebody loses. While it’s difficult to contemplate, you should at least consider the possibility that this is the biggest loss in recent American history, diplomatically speaking. Just for the record, here’s a quick summary of how the deal is being described by the EDITORIAL BOARD of the Journal, note for being chock full of hawks and Right wingers:

Opinion/Hawkish Concerns: Opinion columnists and some conservative critics describe the deal as a "strategic retreat". They argue it gives Iran financial relief and oil export access upfront, which takes away U.S. leverage before securing permanent commitments regarding the country's missiles, regional proxies, or dismantling of all nuclear infrastructure.

A Fragile Compromise: The WSJ Opinion team notes the deal falls short of initial U.S. war aims, leaving deep-seated structural issues unresolved while protecting Iran's geopolitical standing in places like Lebanon.

Since we are in Age of Men®, why don’t you guys man-up and admit that this was a screw up? Then we can get back to other important things, like turning the Reflecting Pool blue. (Oh wait, screwed that one up too!) Well, I’m sure inflation is under control, right? And the rebuild of the Trump-Kennedy Center is going swimmingly. OK, ta ta for now. I’m off to the big bridge opening in Windsor, which promises to lower transportation costs for consumers and help American exports. Hope it’s a sunny day!

What’s that?
