Iran war live: Trump says MoU to end Iran war is ‘over’

July 8, 2026

• US President Donald Trump says the ceasefire deal with Iran is “over”, adds dealing with Tehran is a “waste of time”.
• Air raid sirens blare in Bahrain and Kuwait as Iran says it targeted “85 US military installations” over attacks on its Hormozgan province and the port city of Mahshahr.
• The US says it launched the “powerful strikes” against Iran after attacks on three ships in the Strait of Hormuz, including Qatari and Saudi tankers.
• The US also revokes a waiver that allowed Iran to sell oil under an interim peace agreement signed between Washington and Tehran on June 17.
• The coffin of Iran’s slain supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, arrives in the Iraqi city of Najaf for a funeral procession.

This quote below may deserve to be noted.

(A personal comment: it's hard not to strongly suspect now that (a) all this is being deliberate engineered by the neocons — as Chris Martenson has said a number of times — and therefore (b) we're heading into an unprecedented oil shock followed by a financial crisis that will make 2008 look like something minor.)

Donald Trump:
"I think the ceasefire with Iran is over. They're scum, they're sick people. They're vicious, violent people. They're evil people."

We’re sorry to announce that the MOU cat has left its coma - and died. What else is new?

Baboon of Barbaria and his minions broke their pledge to waive oil sanctions on Iran. Revoked by the Treasury Dept.

They broke the ceasefire - with strikes on Iran's southern coastal posts.

They broke the understanding on navigating the Strait of Hormuz.

They broke - via the death cult - the MoU pledge to end the war "on all fronts including Lebanon”.

Baboon of Barbaria signed the MoU in Versailles and broke it during the funeral ceremonies of assassinated Leader Ayatollah Khamenei - with tens of millions of Iranians demonstrating total national cohesion.

Total control of the Strait of Hormuz already in effect.

And the Bab el-Mandeb is next.

Trump calls the Iranian people “cancer that needs to be eradicated”

Trump's remarks after seeing placards from Iranian people calling for his death:

"I'm on all their lists. And so far, I think I've been a little lucky, but maybe that luck won't last for much longer.

That's just the way things are, but we have some very good people.

But these are evil and sick people, and we need to get rid of this 'cancer.' This 'cancer.' And you know what we have to do? We have to eradicate this 'cancer' in its early stages."

So they just attempted a semi-coup in Iraq to destabilize the country right before the funeral, trying to disrupt this massive day and prevent millions from gathering to bid farewell to Seyed Ali. And AGAIN, they failed?

PS: Iraqi resistance just announced 4 million people have gathered in Karbala, waiting for Ayatollah Seyed Ali Hosseini Khamenei.

Iran War Round 3? US Desperation Setting In | Prof. S. M. Marandi

Source: https://youtube.com/watch?v=U5uZNec4g5A

Early on July 8, 2026, the US launched the largest air strikes against Iran since the MoU was signed a month earlier. Is this the continuation of the war, or a desperate move by the dying Empire?

Professor Mohammad Marandi of the University of Tehran discusses the US-Iran MOU, Hormuz tensions, Iranian assets, Lebanon, Gulf talks, and the risk of another war. He also covers Khamenei’s funeral, Iran’s media response, US power, Europe’s decline, and why Tehran sees the current moment as unstable but full of leverage.

Important detail on what happened last night:

U.S. airstrikes were carried out from 21h00 UTC until 01h00 am

Two ships attempted to use the southern corridor, and were hailed by a IRGC NAVY BOAT at around 02h00 am, and turned around.

= Airstrikes didn't improve anything.

Iran Gave the US a Bloody Nose. Why Is Washington Escalating Toward China?

Source: https://youtube.com/watch?v=akWXFzuDzWY

The US confrontation with Iran has raised profound questions about the future of American power. Did Washington achieve its objectives, or did the conflict expose the limits of US military dominance?


In this exclusive conversation, geopolitical analyst KJ Noh explains why the Iran war should be understood as part of a broader imperial strategy—and why Washington is increasingly shifting its attention toward China and the Indo-Pacific.

The discussion explores:

• Why the war against Iran was fundamentally an imperial project
• Whether US policymakers have learned any lessons from Iran's military resistance
• Why sections of the American ruling elite continue to believe they can confront China militarily
• The strategic implications of the US pivot to the Pacific
• The growing crisis of US global hegemony
• Gaza, anti-war protests, and changing public opinion inside the United States
• Is there genuine hope for radical political change within the imperial core?

KJ Noh argues that understanding the connections between Iran, China, Gaza, and domestic US politics is essential for understanding the emerging world order.

https://x.com/i/status/2073840585103028696 - the only change to this disclosure is that it will be North Korea retaliating against Israel on behalf of Iran in a limited nuclear exchange.

Trump calls the Iranian people “cancer that needs to be eradicated”

As plain as day, Trump is calling certain Iranian leaders a cancer, not the "Iranian people".

Many nations, including mine, have had and/or do have leaders that many of us here would consider cancers that need to be eradicated. Which leader(s) a given person will think this of will vary by person ... but quite a few of us here have thought this of some of their "leaders", at sometime or other.

Have you not thought this yourself, of the current American leader?

That does NOT mean I want the American people eradicated. Nor do I want the Iranian people eradicated. Good grief. I wish both people well (though, granted, I have more skin in the game with one of these people than the other.)

Todd further stated he posted this on Avalon's solar "Micronovas" thread because the looming solar micronova is what is precipitating this conflict now.

If the pilot in the Captain's seat of a large passenger plane flying over the ocean, on which I was an ordinary passenger, realized he was going to have to ditch the plane mid-ocean, likely sometime in the next five or ten minutes, then I would expect that pilot to suddenly start taking emergency actions that would soon become quite disruptive of the calm rest that we passengers had been enjoying.
