Trump calls off strikes on Iran: peace deal number 38?
Trump cancels planned strikes on Iran and announces a deal backed by 14 countries. But the war goes on: a helicopter downed, Gaza bombed. Is this the 38th pact or just theater?
Peace deal with Iran on June 11: mirage or reality?
President Trump called off the strikes planned against Iran on the night of June 10, announcing a peace deal backed by 14 countries. Yet the hostilities on the ground did not stop: Iran shot down an American helicopter and the bombing of Gaza continued. The paradox invites skepticism.
37 deals and a repeating pattern
The reference to the 37 previous peace deals with Iran, as hinted at in the analysis, is no minor detail. Each one failed in its implementation or served to buy the powers time while they rearmed their allies. The question is whether this number 38 will meet the same fate. Trump, playing the mad ruler, spent the whole morning making threats and then backed down within hours. The suspicion that it is all part of a market-timing operation and geopolitical interests keeps coming up.
The Netanyahu factor and the shadow of prophecy
Netanyahu, who has Trump by the balls — in the words of the analysis — has not endorsed the deal. Without his green light, peace in the Middle East seems a chimera. Moreover, the prophecies of Alois Irlmaier and other visionaries warn that when everyone cries "Peace, Shalom," war will break out. The timing coincidence with the announcement of the deal sets off alarms among the most skeptical.
What about the markets?
The announcement hit the financial markets, with sharp moves in oil and currencies. Market manipulation ahead of a major event like the World Cup and the IPO is another clue suggesting the deal could be an instrument for economic interests rather than a genuine desire for peace.
The history of the 37 previous deals calls for caution. Are we looking at the end of the escalation, or a ceasefire paid for with deferred concessions?
