when is it really ending?

[fuguebtc]

It’s really hard to make predictions because everything seems completely out of control. Still, I believe the worst has already happened. In other words, the likelihood of worse scenarios unfolding is slim. For example, the likelihood of a U.S. ground invasion of Iran is very low. Such a scenario could have pushed everything to a point of no return. At this point, we will have to wait for both sides to make concessions and reach an agreement. However, both sides are very stubborn and overly proud. Both sides will want to present the agreement to their people as a victory. This will naturally delay the expected agreement...

As long as oil prices have not peaked and there's still room to rise, the worst is yet to come. We should prepare ourselves for that, instead of thinking that the worst is over

Regarding the war, I guess it will not end anytime soon either. Stop listening to Trump's daily ramblings and Western media report. Instead, let's get updates from both sides, and it seem Iran is not ready to negotiate, let alone end the conflict.

[Makus]

Iran's defences has been brought down, to me the war is over because there is nothing more Iran can do at this point, if they continue to resist US is going to keep on. The country is being damaged and this war is really causing a lot of things especially in the financial market, we don't live in Iran so we aren't affected directly but it affects other parts of the world In other ways. Iran just needs to comply with the terms trump has set for the war to end but no one knows when both countries will be able to come to an agreement.

[tottong]

us has achieved what it has intended to do and in a very efficient fashion as he said but when will the crisis end? he keeps talking about coming to a deal but if a deal is not met, what does it mean for the rest of us? oil will keep rising? expenses will be more expensive?

The conditions of conflict that are occurring are increasingly widespread, where some Asian countries are starting to have an impact on the scarcity of oil, gas and other things.
This indicates that the current conditions are not good because there could be potential for inflation to increase. Trump cannot be trusted because sometimes in conditions like this he is too arrogant and makes decisions that can harm many countries.
In fact, he was demonstrated by some of his people because the decisions he made were detrimental to the people there. Now the question arises as to what Trump did that shows a different side of the democratic system.

An agreement continues to be sought but there is no end point and if this continues then many countries will suffer losses in the future.

In America, there are still demonstrations and unrest due to rising oil prices, so the American people themselves are actually not very happy with Trump's decisions. And as for an agreement like ending the war, I don't think it has ever been reached by either side, as what is often reported in the news is likely limited to claims from each side, so it clearly won't change the situation for the better. I just hope that other countries don't experience a fuel crisis because of this chaos, and I also hope that the country I live in now doesn't experience a crisis of any kind, including fuel, because if that happens, the chaos will get worse for all elements.

[ayomarcelle]

when is the crisis in the middle east end? trump said the following words:

“Over these four weeks, our armed forces have achieved swift, decisive, and crushing victories on the battlefield — the likes of which almost no one has ever seen. Today, Iran’s navy has been destroyed, its air force is in ruins, and its leaders, most of them, are dead.”

us has achieved what it has intended to do and in a very efficient fashion as he said but when will the crisis end? he keeps talking about coming to a deal but if a deal is not met, what does it mean for the rest of us? oil will keep rising? expenses will be more expensive?

I think it is difficult to predict an exact end date for such conflicts because political goals, the capabilities of the parties, and international mediation all play a role. I think, if a comprehensive agreement is not reached in the short term, escalations, regional tensions and fluctuations in energy prices will continue. I think, the economy and energy markets are also pricing in these uncertainties. Therefore, sudden price spikes or supply disruptions may occur. I believe that countries need to increase reserve stocks and accelerate diversified supply and renewable energy investments. Additionally, vulnerable households must be protected through targeted support. In general, stability is difficult to achieve without lasting security and diplomacy...

Even in a country like the United States, people do not always agree with government decisions, especially when it affects something as sensitive as fuel price and when costs go up, it tends to hit everyday life hard, so it is not surprising to see protests or public frustration directed at leaders like Donald Trump or any administration in charge and u are also right about how information around conflicts is reported. Most of what we see in the media often reflects claims from one side or the other, and real agreements most especially ones that truly end wars, are rarely simple or quick. It takes time, and sometimes what is presented publicly does not fully capture what is happening behind the scenes.The concern about a wider fuel crisis is very valid too. Global events can easily affect other countries, especially when it comes to oil and energy. Hopefully, things stabilize before it gets to that point, because as you said, once basic resources like fuel are affected, it can create a ripple effect that leads to more economic and social tension everywhere.

Is war between Ukraine and Russia over? Or Iran is just the new talk in town? Which war as started so far and ended already? Very hard to see one, see what ended the Afghan war? US had to abandoned the country at last.

If Ukraine and Russia war is still ongoing I don't think that any new one will end before the Ukraine and Russia war, I do pray it ends pretty fast but I hate the fact that people are dying because of one man's decision.

It would have been better if the leaders are thrown into the gladiators den to face eachother to death instead of dragging other mens children into war, it's a sick world we living in.

Its very realistic point that there are many conflicts continue in the world which seems endless or have very bad effects on human lives. Currently Russia and Ukraine war is still ongoing and also a new and more dangerous conflict can also started between Iran and USA. And through history we finds that its a very rare a war is quickly stops. And the best example to explain it is the war of Afghanistan which ends after years without any clear conclusions. And such conflicts majority hits the ordinary citizen and families that actually not directly link with this conflict. So the global leaders should prefer the global benefits and for that strong diplomacy and strong international pressure of strong countries can be required to stop violence.

Its apparently not possible for any country in the region to avoid loss of critical resources, infrastructure, and protect their people to any reasonable peace time extent.  They also seem unable to keep the peace, all sides have a belief in the continuation of war ad infintium and the delusion its of benefit to anyone to act this way.    
  The people always suffer most and the leaders of each country have some narrative they are doing some good in their war efforts.   I dont expect any of them to change their minds so the ending via that means is not in sight.

   I would be most optimistic if solid counter measures existed and could be deployed but I dont expect that either.  Russia seems motivated to keep the war going by aiding Iran in its missile strikes so you might draw some parallel with Russia's own forever war; high cost, no worth gains, pointless objectives, a giant ego powers the war onwards non stop.

[Moreno233]

The war in the Middle East is a very sensitive one because all the actors seem to be fighting for survival. Both Iran, Israel and US have the justification that they are fighting to protect their lives as sadly, to a large extent, that is correct. This is the  reason that the war is escalating instead of coming to add. It is rather unfortunate that we are not seeing anything that shows that both Israel and Iran are willing to reach a compromise. The US may pull out of the war because there is immense pressure on Donald Trump to do so but even if they pull out, Israel nay still continue the war. We can only hope they should be able to stop the war as quickly as possible because the more the war last, the more pain all of us feel.

Russia and China are aiding Iran in their defense against the unlawful attacks by Israel and the US.
Oman has from the first week stated it was neutral so it is not being affected militarily. YAE and Bahrain
have gone all in on the side of Israel and the US and all arab states apart from Oman have been hit by
Iran because of the US bases.

You see those states we under the illusion that the US could protect them from "the terrorist state"
of Iran and in return they kept the petrodollar alive. It looks now like the economics behind that
scheme has come to a grinding halt.

Its funny how Iran is labelled a terrorist state but has never caused war on any of its neighbours,
compare that to Israel and the US over the years who have attacked or been involved in attacking
many states in the region.

On Russia and China helping Iran, its funny how this is seen as a negative thing while the US is
allowed to call on its allies in times of war.

The war in the Middle East is a very sensitive one because all the actors seem to be fighting for survival. Both Iran, Israel and US have the justification that they are fighting to protect their lives as sadly, to a large extent, that is correct.  

What justification do you think the US and Israel have for attacking Iran?

us has achieved what it has intended to do and in a very efficient fashion as he said but when will the crisis end? he keeps talking about coming to a deal but if a deal is not met, what does it mean for the rest of us? oil will keep rising? expenses will be more expensive?

What exactly was the intention of attacking Iran because we got a good few reasons as the war
progressed:

Ending Irans alleged development of nuclear weapons eventhough after the 12 day war last year
it was stated that all nuclear capabilities were destroyed???

Was it to force regime change to help the citizens take control and end the oppression - eventhough
the US turns a blind eye on Saudi Arabia which is far more oppressive to its female citizens, but yea
thats ok be ause SA feeds the petrodollar system.?

Is it to try open the Strait of Hormuz - because the strait was fully operational before the war?

Is it now to try and create another Gaza by carpet bombing Iran out of spite because the other 3
objectives could not be achieved?

What was the intention?

This war has the potential to run on for at least a number of weeks. What it means for us all
is higher prices for everything, higher interest rates, food shortages in 2027 and recession.

Do you still believe what trump says? I don’t believe anything that comes out of trumps mouth anymore. Trump claims he has destroyed their Navy, their Air Force has been ruined, but the strait of Hormuz can’t be reopen by the United start, and Iran keeps on hitting the United state fighter jets. If Iran has been destroyed just as trump said, then Iran shouldn’t be fighting back right now, but with the look of things, Iran are not really ready to stop fight, I think Iran have been preparing for the war for a long time, and Trump underestimated Iran.

Most of the things which United state wanted to achieve  before starting a war with Iran has not really been achieved. United stated wanted a regime change, he was able to kill their previous supreme leader, and some of their top officials, but the son of the previous supreme leader took the power, so he couldn’t achieve that. Most of the things trump wanted to achieve he hasn’t been able to achieve them, now he is fight to reopen the strait of Hormuz which was open before the war started.

The prices of oil keeps on increasing I just hope everything is going to settle soon, the war is affecting every country, because price of oil keeps on increasing in every country even d ones that are not in the war, and if the war doesn’t end, prices won’t be dropping.

The continuation of the war because of uncompromising reasons between Israel and Iran is what I can't tell as apart from through war there are other ways disputes can be resolved. Since the existence of this ongoing war between Israel and Iran, are lot of lifes and properties have been lost all for unjustified reasons as what I see as the reasons for this war is no other reasons but quest for supremacy.
To me I think the best approach to this ongoing conflict is resolution as I see no major benefit any of the nations stands to gain at the end of the war apart from regret.

I will say your opinion on US backing off on the war because of the pressure of citizens on trump can be true because there attacking strength has reduced since the persistence protest and may finally come to an end very soon.

[summonerrk]

The markets are under two powerful factors:
 1) Trump has tightened his rhetoric on Iran - "another 2-3 weeks of active action," with no specific plans for Hormuz.
2) The NFP data was weak, with 65k job losses, which, combined with rising oil prices, creates a classic stagflationary configuration: growth slows down, and inflation accelerates. The anniversary of the 2025 "Liberation Day" tariffs looms over the market sentiment as a psychological trigger.
 Oil is trading as a pure defense asset. The market expects logistical disruptions, insurance premiums, and supply shortages.
Levels: if there is a de-escalation, the first magnet will be down at $97-100. If there is an incident in Hormuz, it will be at $120+.

Only Iran is a country fighting for survival because they are the ones being attacked, the ones being invaded. Meanwhile, the goal of both the United States and Israel is to completely destroy Iran because of its oil and its thirst for supreme power
This war will only end when the invaders stop. You cannot ask a nation defending its homeland to make concessions or stop fighting when the invaders have no intention of stopping

If the United States withdraws from the war, it will be the end for Israel. Israel has been able to confront Iran so far thank to support from the United States.

[Zanab247]

Last time I read that it is costing them 2 billion dollars a day in this war, and it is happening over a month now so 60 billion gone for what reason?

Is he trying to take control of their oil source or what is his plan?

Then only we can say when will this end.

Assume other countries of the world will know the amount of money war will consume, I don't think some leaders will like to force the whole country into war than to seek for peace which is possible, because every living things want to experience peace and surplus of resources in the land. Just imagine the billions of dollars has gone just for war, which the government would have use to bring new investors that will develop the country for citizens to have where they can be earning salary weekly or monthly.

Do you know that this $60 billions dollars can build many companies that will be supply material all over the country and other countries of the world? I wish some leaders know this, I guess they will seek for peace which is never too late.

On average, the United States is spending about $1 billion a day on the war in Iran. Currently, the war has entered its 38th day and has cost them over $42 billion. Of that total, the first 11 day alone cost over $6 billion.

You can see the details here. https://iran-cost-ticker.com/

Regarding Trump's goals in Iran, I think it is not about controlling oil, but a larger objective, protecting the petrodollar system and containing China. If you pay attention, you will notice that both Venezuela and Iran are major oil suppliers to China and close allies. I do not think it is a coincidence that the US is targeting these two countries.

[passwordnow]

That time limit that Trump has given will be nearing one more day IIRC. Let's see if he really has got the words for himself to follow. But I would like for him to just sign or talk about the ceasefire. We all need that, Iran needs that, USA and Israel needs that. And the demand about the toll fee in the Strait of Hormuz is all about the fixing of what's been destroyed with this war and to compensate all of it. If the billions or trillions of funds that comes from the USA will be in help of that, things will be easier for everybody but not probably gonna happen.

Trump was not clear before he said that he did not need oil from the Strait of Hormuz and told everyone to take their own actions and save each other, he spoke proudly that he had plenty of oil to meet his needs, but then he stated the offer to Iran with a time limit of 48 hours, I don't understand why he can be like that, his condistency is questionable.

Iran's conditions are too much for the US, so the agreement is very vulnerable to not being approved, but if it is approved then we will find a good solution because Iran's damage and rights can be fulfilled.

[Coyster]

Very few people take Donald Trump's statements seriously these days. How many times has he announced a crushing and total victory now, yet the war is still ongoing and doesn't look to be ending anytime soon.

That said, while it is hard to predict when the war will end or which party is saying the truth about events surrounding the war, the implications are very obvious. You can find it in homes, industries, cost of living, etc. Oil price is high and people have to spend more on energy. It is unfair that it is the people that always suffer for the actions of power drunk leaders, too bad.

It's more of the talks and agreement, I'm sure that there's still a way that these two will have their own ways of agreeing to the demands of each other. It only takes time and some courage for both sides if they do care for their people and actions. One of them really has to humble themselves in order to save the world from this current situation that we're facing. But the question is, which and who will that be?
