The media — digital, cable and network — is saturated with all manner of propaganda, opinions and analyses of Trump’s MoU with Iran.

Our Democrats cannot wait to appear on any show who will have them to expound on how Iran is so much stronger now than it was before the war, which is comical on its face.
They know better, but think we are all morons.
Iran has been stripped of its navy, air force, weapons manufacturing, nuclear program, etc.
But without a hint of embarrassment, certain Dems (Elizabeth Warren, Mark Warner, Ro Khanna, etc.) assert that Iran has “won” the war and we have lost, that Trump has “surrendered.”
That is how removed from the truth the Trump-hating Democrats are today.
This initial offering, this MoU, as we should all remember, is only a “memorandum of understanding.”
Not one bit of it has been put into place. It is not likely any of it will be unless Iran agrees to play ball.
The termagants and carpers who harangue us from our televisions and screens of every device are hoping for Trump’s defeat and Iran’s victory!
Think about that for a moment. Trump-hating leftists would rather the terrorist regime of the Iranian mullahs that is responsible for the deaths of thousands of Americans, Iranians, and others remain in place rather than Trump have a victory over the (almost) most lethal nation on the planet.
That is how debased the Democrat party has become. They support anything that they believe harms the Trump administration no matter how damaging to the American people. They quite literally cherish the millions of migrants Biden opened the orders to, even the criminals among them, over the Americans for whom they have only contempt – the working and middle classes and, of course, Trump supporters.
They have all elatedly jumped on the “the MoU is a disaster” wagon even though they know it is only a framework. Not one thing to be in the future agreed upon plan has been put in place. No money has changed hands. No sanctions have been revoked. Iran has not yet received a single thing but the possibility of an agreement if they adhere to whatever future agreement may be the final document.

Many of those on the right are apoplectic about this MoU as well.
The usual suspects, Mark Levin, Ben Shapiro, etc., the hardcore supporters of Israel all fear that Trump is abandoning the Jewish State but he is most certainly not.
He is their one and only ally as Vice President Vance so rightly reminded. Does it not seem likely that there may be a game afoot? Trump offers up the MoU, it immediately angers factions on the left and right. He and Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu appear to be at odds.
But what if this is all part of a plan? What if it is a bit of theatrical strategy? Trump seems to be angry at Bibi for defending itself against Hezb’allah which, of course, it has every right to do. Bibi is mad at Trump for trying to restrain his need to defend Israel against Hezb’allah which is Iran’s forward army of terrorists.
What if this is all about giving Israel those 60 days to end Hezbollah in Lebanon at which point Iran would not have much choice but to partake in an agreement. Possible? See Ken Timmerman’s column here.
Bottom line? None of us knows the facts or the truth of these negotiations. No one should be going on the Sunday shows and pretend they do know because they do not.
Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent may know how this particular sweepstakes game is being played, but none of the talking heads know; they are just anxious to pontificate on what they think they know based on their own ideologies.
We must all remember: They know nothing but what they deduce and their deductions, however rooted in their particular expertise, are most certainly suspect. They are guessing.
So let us all be patient and see how this turns out with the time allotted. As Trump has repeatedly said, if Iran negates whatever final deal is agreed upon, bombing will resume.
Iran surely knows this to be not just a threat but a promise.
Do they care or does their brand of Islam dictate that they sacrifice themselves and their people rather than comply with a plan for a more peaceful world?
