Trump's tough talk ignites oil price spike as US-Iran nuclear negotiations teeter on the brink of war...Again.
Trump's tough talk ignites oil price spike as US-Iran nuclear negotiations teeter on the brink of war...Again.

A Storm Brews in the Sands

Hmph. Trump speaks of war and negotiations with the same breath. He threatens strikes like a child brandishing a dull blade. The price of oil rises fueled by his bluster. Such is the way of mortals always squabbling over trinkets and land. They withdraw their forces fearing the consequences of their actions. "They are being moved out because it could be a dangerous place." Foolish mortals always running from the consequences of their own actions. I Kratos faced far worse and did not flinch.

The Boastful Titan's Empty Threats

This 'Trump' speaks of Iran's 'delaying' as if time itself bends to his will. He warns of airstrikes echoing the arrogance of Zeus himself. "I'm less confident now than I would have been a couple of months ago." Another god king who knows nothing of war. Such is the folly of those who sit on thrones far removed from the blood and the screams. He will not allow Iran to have a nuclear weapon? Is that so? Let him try to stop it. I have seen gods fall for less.

The Sands Whisper of Retaliation

Iran speaks of retaliation a familiar tune. "If the conflict is imposed upon us the enemy's losses will undoubtedly be greater than ours." Such confidence...or perhaps desperation. They threaten to strike American bases. They forget that threats are wind; actions are stone. Like the Spartans of old they prepare for war but do they understand its true cost? Boy sometimes conflict cannot be avoided.

Compliance Is An Illusion!

The IAEA those meddling fools declares Iran in 'non compliance.' As if scraps of parchment could contain the will of a nation. The sands shift. Accusations fly like arrows in the dark. Iran claims innocence while Washington snarls and prepares to take it all away...Sound familiar? They speak of uranium enrichment a delicate balance between peace and destruction. Can they truly control such power? Or will it consume them all?

A Deal With The Devil Or Just The Americans?

Both sides claim to desire a 'deal.' Such words are hollow when spoken by those who crave only power. Trump seeks a 'political win,' while Iran craves relief from sanctions. They're children fighting over the largest cookie. Uranium enrichment is the sticking point the forbidden fruit. Trump demands zero enrichment an impossible request. Iran refuses to yield clinging to its 'rights.' They call it the 'Nuclear Non Proliferation Treaty.' A treaty? HA! Mortals and their 'civilized' agreements.

The Ghosts of War Dance Closer

Israel prepares to strike the hounds of war unleashed. Netanyahu presses Trump for permission like a beggar pleading for scraps. Trump warns against haste yet fans the flames. The risk of conflict rises a storm gathering on the horizon. Analysts speak of choreography and pressure. More words more lies. Iran threatens to strike US assets. This could end in 'a devastating confrontation.' Indeed. The cycle of violence continues unbroken. A god will not change this. But perhaps a man who was once a god...can.
