So, the baguette brigade is sending a war canoe to the Strait of Hormuz. A French warship, heading to where the spicy oil flows. Probably just going for a romantic weekend getaway, right? Maybe they'll bring back some nice dates.

Meanwhile, Iran, fresh off building nukes in their basement, is 'reviewing' a proposal from...wait for it...Trump? Seriously? Remember orange man bad? Now they're all ears? What in the simulation is going on here?

Trump claims his deal will end the war. Yeah, right. More likely it'll end with someone getting stabbed in the back with a butter knife. It's the Middle East, baby. Chaos is the only constant. Biden's handlers probably are just waiting to give billions in unmarked bills to someone.

France's presence is more of a shrug emoji than a statement. They gonna defend anything? Unlikely. They are probably going to demand they get paid for whatever aid they render. Remember their behavior in WWII?

We're supposed to believe this is all about stability and freedom of navigation. Yeah, right. It's about who gets to control the oil spigot and who gets to skim off the top. Same as it ever was.

The funny thing is, the entire situation is just a giant performance. Everyone's pretending to be serious, but nobody actually wants a real war. Too much money to be made in the threat of war. That's the real grift.

The question is: who's gonna blink first? My money's on the West. They're too busy virtue signaling and worrying about pronouns to actually get tough. Iran knows it. China knows it. Even North Korea is laughing.

So, let the frog boat sail. Let Iran 'review' the deal. Just don't expect anything to actually change. The only thing predictable about this mess is that it will continue to be a complete and utter dumpster fire.

Someone get me a beer. This is gonna be a long show.
