When ceasefire is not ceasefire, done deal is not done deal

After the recent outbreak of hostilities, during which the stock market slide and some people bought big into stocks, there is again talk of a meeting in Qatar on Tuesday. Would anyone care to bet that the stock market will yet rise once again, and some people will be making another killing on the stock market. Of course, the ordinary Tom, Dick and Harry have no share of the prosperity afforded by the stock market yo-yo. This is becoming the norm, at least for the duration of the standoff between USA and Iran. Maybe even extending into the rest of Trump's second term.

When is a ceasefire not a ceasefire and a done deal not a deal at all? What kind of a ceasefire are they talking about between Israel and Lebanon when they are lobbing bombs and killing people. What kind of a ceasefire when one side can claim they hold the privilege of attacking the other side during the ceasefire, probably using a false flag to make its case. When no deal can be interpreted as a 'done deal' to move the market, what else is new?

I am beginning to be more convinced that the Lebanon Government is selling out the country to the Israelis, making a deal with Israel with the intention of dismantling Hezbollah, that have been the hurdle preventing Israel from making Lebanon into another Gaza. Nothing brings more harm to a country than leaders selling out the country to the enemy.

Having said that, just look at what is unfolding in Albania over the selling out of the country to the Elites of USA/Israel, intending to make the Sazon Island its doomsday escape destination for its elites, with ready-built underground tunnels built to withstand a nuclear strike, crisscrossing the Island, built by the former Albanian regime. The Albanians have been protesting for almost a month, called the Pink Flamingo Movement, meant to prevent the project from being carried out and endangering wildlife on the island. It all boils down to corruption by the leaders selling out the country to USA and Israel.

Ceasefires and deals made with the USA only lasts in the blink of an eye. Good enough to affect the stock market. That is the whole idea.

Trump has to find ways to keep oil prices down. Even a fake deal can do the job pretty well. We all know the oil situation going back to normal is not that simple, as logistics have been destroyed and needed to be replaced and repaired. These are not like things built with Lego Bricks. They take years to be repaired and put back to normality. The Middle East right now is hardly peaceful and normal.

The USA is desperate to keep the world fixated on oil, as the world will have to continue to hold US$ to buy the oil. Which is why the USA wants to seize all the oil to maintain the survival of the US$ hegemony. The USA had already seized the Iraqi oilfields, the Venezuelan oilfields, already holds control over the Middle East producers and wants to add Iran to its control.

Qatar is breaking away from OPEC. The USA is not a member of OPEC and wants to see the bloc breaking up, otherwise the bloc controls the pricing by using its members to either increase of decrease supplies. Moreover, oil is now also sold in Yuan by some Middle East oil producers, which is an affront to the US$ hegemony. The USA wants to be in that dominant position as OPEC to dictate the direction of oil prices.

Before Venezuela was robbed of its oil, sales to China were already in Yuan, which was a nail in the de-dollarization coffin. China was also buying oil from Iran in Yuan, a second nail in the US$ coffin. Then, there is Russian oil also sold to China in Yuan. These are not small potatoes chipping away at the US$ hegemony. They are big de-dollarization moves that the USA feared.
