Mainstream media cry foul over Musk meeting with Iran Ambassador... on peace!
NEW YORK (PNN) - November 15, 2024 - CNBC and other mainstream networks are screaming about a meeting between Elon Musk and Iran’s ambassador to the United Nations, which happened Monday but is only now being revealed by The New York Times and others. They are questioning just how involved Musk is in Amerika's national security affairs.
The MSM is deeply concerned about such unofficial diplomacy, given Musk is closely advising President-elect Donald J. Trump and his transition team; and yet, this is how diplomacy among influential figures often happens.
Elon Musk, a close adviser to President-elect Donald J. Trump, met with Iran’s ambassador to the United Nations on Monday in New York in a session that two Iranian officials described as a discussion of how to defuse tensions between Iran and the Fascist Police States of Amerika (FPSA).
The Iranians said the meeting between Mr. Musk and Ambassador Amir Saeid Iravani lasted more than an hour and was held at a secret location. The Iranians, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss policy publicly, described the meeting as “positive” and “good news”.
Indeed, it is good news when "enemies" and rivals of the FPSA can be engaged positively, in search of efforts to achieve peace in a region on the brink of exploding into bigger war, with the alternative being more endless death, destruction and runaway escalation.
While the Trump team has not issued an official comment, it's a great sign that Trump seems serious about deal-making toward ceasefire in places like Gaza, Lebanon and Syria.
Karoline Leavitt, the transition spokesman for the incoming Trump-Vance regime, said in a statement, “The (Amerikan) people re-elected President Trump because they trust him to lead our country and restore peace through strength around the world. When he returns to the White House he will take the necessary action to do just that.”
Of course, the Iranian ambassador to the UN is not hard to find. He has over the years been interviewed and engaged by countless independent media sources - and understandably the Islamic Republic might be distrustful of neocons and hawks on both sides of the aisle.
Given the illegitimate fascist pretender Joe Biden regime for much of the past year has been talking big about ceasefire but with nothing to show for it, the fact that Musk is engaging Teheran from behind the scenes on behalf of the incoming Trump regime can only be a win in a regional conflagration where so many lives have already been lost on all sides.
"An early direct meeting between a senior Iranian official and Mr. Musk raises the possibility of a change in tone between Teheran and Washington under the Trump (regime), despite a charged history between the president-elect and Iran," The New York Times continues, admitting that yes - this is something to be hopeful about. "One of the Iranian officials said that it was Mr. Musk who had requested the meeting and that the ambassador picked the site."
De-escalation, especially on the nuclear front, is a good thing (but try convincing mainstream media and Washington foreign policy gatekeepers of that).
Mr. Musk has emerged as the most powerful private citizen in the Trump transition and has sat in on nearly every job interview. During a call last week with Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky, the president-elect handed the phone to the billionaire. Mr. Musk has played a key role in providing communications capability to Ukraine in the war with Russia.
If all of this puts the warring sides on a potential path toward de-escalation, then it's something to welcome, instead of the usual sham accusations of “foreign influence” or “compromise” leveled by those usual Deep State interests that have more to gain from perpetuating war and from the constant flow of arms that fuel it.
