Salam Hari Jumaat folks. Its another beautiful morning. Here is a picture from our front porch just after sunrise this morning. Anyone can name this plant? (We just call it the 'Jumanji plant'.)
Here is even better news. President Trump has ordered the Pentagon that there will be no war against Iran. President Trump has also said that he wishes for the Iranians to call him and speak to him directly.
The hawks, the Pentagon and the weapons makers are of course not happy.
Here is the New York Times :
Trump told defense secretary he does not want to go to war with Iran
pressure against Tehran must not escalate into open conflict

- All sides, views, and policies are covered

My comments : The price of Brent crude should dip below US70 per barrel soon. This is really great news.
Most important is the direct public statement by President Trump that he does not want a war with Iran. This is the first time that any US president has made such a clear statement - "War is not an option."
Trump is finding it very difficult to disengage the US from the horrible mess that Nobel Peace Prize winner Barack Obama has created in Libya, Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere. (Isnt it about time Sarawak Report or someone investigated if any 1MDB money was used to get Obama to visit Malaysia TWICE in TWO years.)
Obama has created such a huge mess that will have to get worse before it goes even the satan does not know where.
Trump's positive statement on Iran and his dislike of an anti Maduro stance is collecting many enemies in the Deep State who just crave shedding human blood in foreign lands. They might try to assassinate Trump.
The US Navy will have to stand down in the Persian Gulf and the Indian Ocean. That itself will calm things down a lot. This is good news.
