Donald Trump thanked Iran for giving “early notice” of a missile attack on a US base in Qatar. As I reported, there was back-channel communication where Iran had to make a show, and the “early notice” was to provide the US with time to shoot down the projectiles.
Trump has then taken to Truth Social, declaring a ceasefire for 24 hrs, and hopefully this would end the “12-day War.” This was the result of more back-channel discussion that Israel is pushing the limit here, which may then drag in Russia and China.
I reported that Iran’s Minister flew to Moscow this morning and met with Putin. The outcome of that meeting was that Putin said he would come to the aid of Iran. I have reported that the rail line connecting Iran and China is critical. I believe that Israel has been read the riot act.
I have reported that gold was turning down BEFORE this news because this outcome was coming, and I said on the private blog that next week is critical. The real question is that Trump is going against the Neocons who got him into this mess. Hopefully, he now sees clearly that Netanyahu is a Neocon.
The computer was projecting a lull here, but it still looks to be turning back up in August. Then we have crazy Zelensky demanding NATO protection ASAP, or he too will pursue nuclear weapons. NATO does not allow anyone to join who is in a war, which would instantly invoke Article 5. Zelensky MUST be removed. He is a dictator, and the Ukrainian people should be allowed to vote, not the Neocons.
