    Say what you will about Macron, but getting Trump to sign what is essentially a surrender treaty in Versailles is some top-tier trolling. A+, no notes.

      I won’t thank Macron for his pr stunt acting like he did not support the war by repeating the american lies that manufactured consent to the war

      I’d really rather not. Can you give me an idea of the atmosphere?

      Considering the deep Russian influence, I’m guessing a lot are rabidly against the deal, since the Iran war benefits Russia

        It’s all over the map. Tons of in-fighting between people pissed off that we aren’t continuing to kill brown people (“terrorism is in their DNA” is a direct quote), pissed off that we spent all that money and time and got nothing of value in return, pissed off that it makes Trump look bad, pissed off that the media is not portraying all the “wins” from this war, pissed off that the Republicans once again gave into Democrats’ demands (seriously), and pissed off that they are being brigaded by fake conservatives since this was a huge win for Trump.

    It’s good that a deal was reached. There has been too much suffering especially in Iran and Lebanon.
