Today's show reviews the recent 'deal' announcement for ceasefire in the Iran war. What's a 'deal'. This is just an MOU, an outline of items to be negotiated over next 60 days. A framework for negotiation. Is it the beginning of US retreat from middle east? Why did the regime change fail. How do regime change ops succeed? Why not Iran. Takeaways from the 'deal'. Economic fallouts for US: inflation. Military spending. Austerity. US growth. Global economy impacts to come
