Good Wednesday morning beloved sentients. Another gorgeous, sunny day on the Malahat and I can hardly wait to get out on the deck and bask with my morning coffee. But in the meantime we have to deal with the deeds of deadbeats. As a social worker working with children and their families I am well aware of the harm that deadbeats cause in the world.
The worst deadbeats are those who get so dependent on their families as means of support that they will kill them if that support is threatened or removed. We see it in the papers all the time. Thankfully I never had such a bad outcome on my caseload although it could have happened at any time.
Geopolitically we have two horrific deadbeats Trump and Netanyahu in a “perfect storm” of deadbeatism. They are incapable of accepting the responsibility of an honest contract–always trying to get “something for nothing”. That is the lifetime goal of the deadbeat and is why they declare bankruptcy like Trump has at least six times. He wipes out his debts and starts over.
Netanyahu takes entire countries for nothing…robbing the inhabitants and killing them if necessary.
Here are some latest reports and links from overnight developments. Please review and I will have conclusions to follow:

Greencrow comments: When I read the list below I smiled to myself and thought there’s not a hope in hell that USrael will follow through on ANY of these obligations/commitments–they’re both bankrupted deadbeats:

Greencrow continues: LOL sure enough, moments later I read the walk back ….why does the world have to endure endless dayZ of this crap? Back and forth, back and forth…wasting everyone’s time and energy…but this is what deadbeats do…try to wear down their “marks” so they’ll give up and go away or better…give them what they want.

Live updates: Iran war; Trump says he won’t rush Iran deal because ‘I don’t care about the midterms’ | CNN
The White House called a draft memorandum of understanding circulated by Iranian media a ‘fabrication.’
Here’s the latest
• Trump convenes Cabinet: During an ongoing Cabinet meeting, US President Donald Trump said he won’t be rushed into a deal, warning that Iran’s efforts to outlast him won’t work because he doesn’t “care about the midterms.”
• Draft memo: According to a report on Iranian state television, the memorandum of understanding being negotiated between Iran and the US will call for US military forces to withdraw from Iran’s vicinity and lift the blockade of Iranian ports in return for the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz to pre-war levels. The White House said the report is “not true.”
• On the ground: Iran has imposed new restrictions on messaging and app stores, according to an internet watchdog, after yesterday partially easing a blackout that lasted nearly 90 days.
• In Lebanon: Israel has issued more evacuation warnings for southern Lebanon during fresh attacks on what it described as infrastructure sites for Iran-backed Hezbollah. At least 31 people were killed in Israeli airstrikes yesterday.

US and Israel, both break ceasefire to launch attacks on Iran & Lebanon – PFYT2
********
Greencrow continues: here is the spineless waffler Turkish President Erdogan...hoping that “Muslims” will finally get rid of Netanyahu–the deadbeat who has been running amok through the Middle East for 60 years. Too cowardly to act, he’s leaving it up to the Iranians to do his dirty work.
Israel strikes Tyre after ordering evacuation of south Lebanon city
Greencrow comments: And the [dead]beat goes on: Here we have Tyre in South Lebanon coming under another evacuation order for obliteration of yet another Muslim city. When will it ever end?
“The Israeli military has said it is carrying out air strikes on Hezbollah targets in Tyre in southern Lebanon, after ordering the evacuation of the entire city.
The military told residents that it was “compelled to act forcefully” in Tyre because the Iran-backed armed group was violating a US-brokered ceasefire that began five weeks ago.
Earlier on Wednesday, Lebanese media reported a wave of Israeli strikes across the south and the eastern Bekaa Valley, with four people killed in the towns of Choukine and Nabatieh.
Hezbollah, which has itself accused Israel of breaching the ceasefire, said it was battling Israeli troops north of the Litani river, about 30km (19 miles) from the border.
It came a day after Israel’s prime minister announced an expansion of its ground operation following Hezbollah drone attacks on troops occupying part of southern Lebanon and on civilians in northern Israel.”

Greencrow concludes: Former CIA analyst Larry Johnson thinks that there will be no deal. I agree with him. The longer this farce drags on the worse it will be for Iran. Just like the abused wife married to a deadbeat threatened with eviction…the longer Iran “stays in the game” the more dangerous it will be.
Can you imagine even ten years ago a leader getting away with such a grotesque threat as that made by the deadbeat Trump below? Trump makes them every day…and worse. Deadbeats often resort to violence when they’re denied the things they want. Everything belongs to them–in their narcissistic peabrains.
Stay tuned.
