Incredibly predictable. No deal will occur so long as Israel controls our government.


Bibi is going to mess this up for the rest of the world because they have decided to invade and take possession of Lebanon ….kind of reminds me of Hitler vacuuming up his neighbors, one by one.
“According to Al Jazeera English correspondent Ali Hashem, the US may be attempting to retreat on two key negotiating items: unfreezing Iranian assets and the extent of a ceasefire in Lebanon.

According to Hashem’s Iranian source, Israel seems to be pressuring the US to include language that would allow for further Israeli military operations in Lebanon. Iran is insistent on the ceasefire extending to Lebanon, as well.

“Tehran has informed all mediators, including Pakistan, that it will not sign the memorandum unless all clauses are fully agreed and guaranteed,” Hashem reports. ”

$25 billion was just the normal operating cost of the units used- ie peace time cost. That number does not reflect the actual cost of the operation. That cost is somewhere north of $200 billion.

WTF Why do these people think Iran will enter into anything like the JCPOA? That was torn up by Trump and the pro Israeli crowd. Iran has said the nuclear enrichment materials etc. are off the table.

Can we actually listen to what the Iranians are saying? The Iranians have said from the start and many many times since then no. The nuclear enrichment abilities and materials are off the table. Iran will do what it wants.

Every country in Asia that depends on Persian Gulf oil will ignore US sanctions and establish trade deals with Iran. This includes the Gulf Kingdoms.

Someone needs to explain how whatever Trump is doing is remotely as effective as what he tore up, that cost nothing in US Arms or lives or reputation.

to be clear, this is a really bad deal for the US, but....the US started the war and has lost. So to the victors go the spoils.

Especially since we lost capacity, competence, and credibility with this war and modern warfare in general, don’t be surprised if we /Trump press the button

While it appears that Iran does not yet have a nuclear weapon, we know they desperately want one and likely have the capacity to make one rather quickly. They also have and were getting more ballistic weapons that can reach Europe and could get some that could reach the US in the future.

And, almost 50,000 killed in Vietnam. We want no soldiers killed, but it could be here if Iran gets the weapon. They funded much of the terrorism in the Middle East, here, and in Europe.


This is not the same.

And, John Kerry's Congressional testimony at the time was way, way out of line. He may have been brave during his three or four months there, but he literally threw it all away when he returned. He was following the JFK model--but he was no JFK. Irony, that JFK also played a role in our activity in Vietnam.

There’s no evidence that Iran was suddenly closer to having a nuke than they were six months or a year before Trump arbitrarily decided to launch an illegal war.


You are willing to take that risk. How close do they have to get for you to change your mind?


The Iranians think nuclear weapons are amoral. They have had the capabilities to make and deliver a nuclear for over 35 years. They have not made one. Iran does not pose any threat to the United States.

It is much more likely Israel will use a nuclear bomb vs Iran developing a nuclear weapon. You people are so discredited.


The Iranians even if they had nukes would never nuke anyone. Even if we take Israel’s delusions at face value, don’t the Iranian supported Hezbollah and Palestinians live within inches of Israel? Don’t many Iranian Jews live in Israel? So would Iran just decide to blow up 17 countries? the Middle East is not an island like Japan. Nuking Israel would affect Cyprus, Greece, Italy, Turkey, Iran itself, the entire gulf, Jordan, Armenia, Egypt, Azerbaijan. three different continents would be affected. It would be a huge war crime. They are not crazy. WE are crazy enough to do this and not fear repercussions from war crime

It's a good thing Europe re-built its military industrial complex...what could go wrong.

This is the real problem. The US doesn’t have the munitions and air defense to fight a modern war. We used up so much of our capabilities in this very peripheral war of choice. Now we can’t do anything for at least a couple of years as we need to replenish. And our allies won’t be getting anything they paid for in the meantime. Which means they will go elsewhere for their defense needs.

We really crippled ourselves with this war. Which begs the question what the hell are we spending more than a trillion a year on? War has changed. But Trump and Hegseth seem stuck in the 90s and never adapted to new realities. And now Iran gets to set the terms because we don’t have the capabilities to fight a modern war.
