Is this really what we wanted? With the signing of the Peace Deal, Iran is beginning to resume the brutal lashes and executions it is known for. Don’t get me wrong. I am still a fan of Donald Trump. Triple Trumper here. This isn’t so much a peace deal as carte blanche for abusing citizens and continuing to bedevil the Great Satan, the United States of America.

Before Donald Trump began bombing the hummus out of Iran in Operation Epic Fury, sentient human beings on Planet Earth were appalled by stories of lashings and executions carried out by that country and its sixth century leaders. They forgot about lashings and executions while we were busy destroying their nuclear stockpiles and their ballistic missiles. In addition to bombing them, we were destroying their economy. If they couldn’t trade oil, their economy was in free fall.

And then, we rescued Iran. I know that the Kurds kept the weapons meant for Iranian citizens. I know the mid-terms are coming up and gas prices must come down.

My gut (and interactions with right-leaning normals) tells me that most people are going to be fine with this deal (I want to destroy the mullahs, in case you wonder where I stand).

We hawks range from unhappy to enraged, but normal people don’t really care as much. And with…

Gah! Kurt is correct. But the Iranian people. Have you heard that the Mullahs are acting ugly again?

The Iranian regime is behaving like the mass murdering terrorist entity it is and marking “peace” with political executions, heinous sharia punishments, and demands that its terror proxies be allowed any amount of bloody license.

Since a U.S.-pushed “ceasefire” between Hezbollah and Israeli forces, Iran-backed Hezbollah has launched attacks that killed 19 Israelis. Now, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) of Iran — the same that killed 40,000 Persians, 13 Americans, and dozens of Israelis this year — is saying it won’t sign any peace deal unless Israeli forces stop defending themselves altogether from Hezbollah attacks, regardless of the fact that Hezbollah will never stop attacking.

Of course, IRGC top brass and other Iranian leaders absolutely believe it is their mission in life to fight the “great Satan” America until the Islamic messiah comes, as the mayor of Tehran just said on Iranian TV, so really this is an excuse for avoiding a peace deal that the murderous ayatollahs don’t want. Notably, Israel is not allowed to join or influence the Iran deal, yet is supposed to submit to endless missile attacks so its enemies across the Middle East get the deal they want.

I am not a Euro-twink, as opposed to the great tourists here for the World Cup, so I don’t mind being part of the Great Satan.

The Iranian Mullahs do love lashing women:

An Iranian music sensation and an eight-person production team were reportedly sentenced to 74 brutal lashings for the singer’s viral patriotic tune which she performed without a hijab.

Parastoo Ahmadi, 29, and other artists were slapped with the savage flogging by the criminal court of Qom province over a livestream performance from December 2024, according to court documents reviewed by the Guardian.

Ahmadi sang the patriotic track “As Khoone Javane Vatan” — which translates to “From the Blood of the Youth of the Homeland” in Persian — without donning a hijab, considered a Muslim symbol of religious devotion, the outlet reported.

“Ahmadi’s punishment of 74 lashes for merely singing and appearing without a hijab is yet another reminder that human rights conditions in Iran have not changed, despite the Iranian authorities’ wartime propaganda campaign aimed at improving their image,” Bahar Ghandehari, the director of advocacy at the US-based Center for Human Rights in Iran, told the outlet.

Other singers and women’s rights activists have been subject to similar punishments by the Islamic Republic, including flogging and arbitrary detention, according to Amnesty International.

Better than being hung or stoned or thrown off of a building. Sixth century cretins.

Look, I know this wasn’t really a peace deal. It was a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). Vice President J.D. Vance was supposed to begin the real negotiations.

I also know that President Trump did promise not to get us into anymore forever wars. Doesn’t have to be. We could have bombed Iran some more until all the Mullahs waiting on the Messiah were dead.

Iran is upset that Israel is fighting with Hezbollah. Too bad. The Mullahs can go pee up a rope. For every lash and execution they give, we should do something vile to the Mullahs. They have earned it. The whiny little babies should get a few lashes themselves.
