Trump Threatens Four Thousand Years of Civilisation, Calls It a Chat

Trump warns Iran faces civilisational destruction if the Strait of Hormuz stays closed; Iran forms human chains around infrastructure as Pakistan pushes to extend a US deadline and talks continue under existential threat.

Trump negotiates like a man burning down the house to get the cat out. Talleyrand let the other side save face while he took the furniture — this bloke threatens to incinerate four thousand years of Persian civilisation and calls it a conversation. Australia watches from the cheap seats, three weeks of fuel in the tank, no opinion worth the petrol.
