US President Donald Trump claimed an agreement to end the war with Iran was close on Thursday, hours after cancelling a third consecutive night of strikes.

Trump had declared the US would strike Iran “very hard”, but hours later said his negotiators had “just made a great settlement” with Iran.

He told reporters it was “subject to finalisation of documents, which should get done, over the next few days” and that there would “probably” be a signing ceremony in Europe.

    If they were doing an okay job, title would be something like, “Pathological liar and narcissistic pedophile makes claims without evidence.” With a disclaimer at the top:

    “Believing what this pathological liar says without absolute evidence is a mental illness.”

      That’s not news, that’s an opinion piece.
      And it would get the BBC sued, since Trump hasn’t been diagnosed with narcissistic disorder or convicted in a criminal court for child abuse.

      There are enough blogs you can read that write like that, though.
