Akschually

Yes, the current stoppage of hostilities is a memorandum of understanding.

To be BINDING on the US, it will have to pass Congress and THAT will be a treaty.

It should be a surrender document, but even if it was, it too would require Congress to sign off on it.

I thought it plain enough to not bore my readers with the trivial details, but the bigots insisted I be clearer.

A, valid, point they make using slurs is:  Will Israel play ball?  I predict that they won't and that will be Iran's excuse to start being their old selves.  And we're going to have to drop some more bombs.

That this agreement with Iran can be made when they're saying they won't be bound by it says a great deal about the conspiracy theories that Zionists control the US Government.

But that's another story that I have never felt like typing out. 

That's Not Gonna Be Popular

I'm reading that we're on the hook for $300 billion to rebuild Iran and there's fuck-all about getting the uranium out of their reach.

I can easily see Congress not ratifying this treaty.

Oh, did everyone forget that this is a treaty?

They sure as fuck remembered that Congress was supposed to authorize having a war. 

Let's See If It Holds

The news is full of a memorandum of understanding towards a formal end of hostilities between The Islamic Republic of Iran and the United States of America.

Excellent!

Hopefully Iran means it this time and we can stop blowing them up.

I've said before that I would be far happier if our nations were friends.

I hope it's possible.

I doubt it will be as long as even a thread of the leadership from before we started dropping bombs is still in charge of the place.
