The so called "Sole power in the world" could not sustain bombing against Iran for more than 36 days before asking for a breather.

Meanwhile Russia has been bombing Ukraine back to back for 4 years. Breaking bombing records with each strike daily.

The difference is too clear.

⚡Tehran has declared its missile program off the table in any talks, framing it as sovereign defense.

Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmail Baghaei added that NATO forces entering the Persian Gulf would only deepen complications in the region.
U.S is using "defensive strikes" to cripple and dislodge your defense in the area before the arrival of NATO forces. SMHFU people.

Am surprised too, Iran won round 1 and they are currently winning the economic war. They will win round 2 if it comes to it but they don’t want to fight a war if they don’t have to.

They had thousands of civilians killed, all essential military assets are in underground bases, the USA and chosen ones are striking residential buildings and civilian infrastructure. Iranians should be proud they have a government looking for a diplomatic solution even though they won’t lose if push comes to shove.

A lot of people believe nonsense from western media, if it’s not coming from an Iranian official then it’s most likely BS.

It doesn’t matter what has happened before, like the deaths of previous leaders and politicians, what matters now is saving lives if they can but keep their fingers on the trigger for immediate response.

They demonstrated this with their strikes in Kuwait, we all know when you hear minor injuries they are likely talking about a mass casualty event.

Iran will always win a conventional war, this is an absolute certainty.
If you follow the timeline of events you would know that Trump is still using the diplomacy route to deceive the Iranians. Under diplomacy you blockaded their ports and started carrying out airstrikes calling it defensive actions. The Iranians should have understood Trump better now.

The problem with you people is that you are bored and want to see more wars. You don't really care about Iran. If you do you will care about the destruction and death it will get from the war.

Iranians are smart people and their leaders are smart, they are doing what's best for their people, allow them pls.

Do you guys actually think US is Qatar or UAE, this is the richest country in the world and as one of the poorest countries in the if Iran can avoid war through diplomatic means with USA it is more beneficial for them. But if the US chose war they have no choice but to fight
You don't understand what is going on. America under Trump keeps playing the Iranians and they are falling for the deception. America has used negotiation to deceive Iran twice and it is still doing so. You proposed a ceasefire then went ahead to blockade their ports and lately they have been carrying out strikes on Iranian naval assets in Hormuz that's another foul play and deception and all Iran could do is continue negotiating hoping US would relax sanctions SMH.

It will be foolish for the Iranians to think Trump is ready to offer them concessions by relaxing sanctions and unfreezing their seized assests. Trump is an egomaniac who wants to emerge as the sole winner of this war. He wants a total humiliating surrender from Iran. Days ago he said he won't agree to any deal that does not favour Israel and you and I know Netanyahu wants an end to Iran's ballistic missile program and and removal of the HEU and I think Iranians are ready to give them that with their nauseating actions.

The Iranians are not smart here it is Trump that keeps outsmarting them.

⚡Trump ‘betraying diplomacy’ for third time, former IRGC commander says.

Mohsen Rezaei, a member of Tehran’s Expediency Council, advisor to Iran’s supreme leader and former Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps commander, says Trump is “betraying diplomacy for the third time”.

“By continuing the naval blockade and making excessive demands in negotiations, he has once again proven that he is not inclined toward negotiation and is pursuing other objectives,” he wrote in a post on X.
E b lyk say dem don swear for these Iranians. If diplomacy is what they want they should keep pursuing it, clowns. Someone kild your children in their school, murdered your leaders, destroyed infrastructures and even threatened to anhilate you with nukes yet you are still sitting at the table with that person in the name of diplomacy.

Iran NEEDS to understand that the Strait of Hormuz is NOT a substitute for Nuclear Weapons.

The Strait is just a DEFENSIVE mechanism.
It does NOT prevent you from being ATTACKED.

It's NOT a viable deterrent.

UNTIL the Iranians realise this, US and the GENOCIDAL state of ILLsrael will CONTINUE to attack them WHENEVER they want.

They can cook up a FLIMSY reason to attack Iran and get away with it.

North Korea is SMALLER than Iran.
They have a SMALLER population.
They are POORER than Iran.

Yet NOBODY born of a woman DARES to attack them anyhow or ASSASSINATE their Leaders and expect them to negotiate.

Meanwhile, their government is even more DRACONIAN than the one in Iran.

Iran NEEDS sense!
You nailed it. Iranian leaders for their mind still think the strait is a nuclear option for them. I dey SMH for them. America is using this tit for tat attack to continue its strike and military objectives stylishly.
Foreign AffairsRe: Russia-Ukraine War: World News, Weapons & Battlefield Discussions - Live by dermmy(m): 10:59am On May 24
Trump reportedly caught Iran off guard last year by launching attacks during ongoing negotiations, he repeated a similar approach in late February this year. He appeared to do so again by proposing a ceasefire, which was later used as leverage to blockade an Iranian port.

One thing I have come to understand is that Trump is driven strongly by ego and wants to emerge from this conflict as the sole winner. In my view, he is still in the process of deceiving Iran. Sanctions can be imposed rapidly, but if Iran agrees to dilute its highly enriched uranium (HEU) or transfer it to the United States, it could take years for the country to restore its enrichment capacity.

Make Iran dey mumu there.

LordAdam16:
both reports have an element of truth to it




the nyt report clearly said iran made a commitment to give up its enriched uranium
but that the details are unclear

prior to the war, the understanding has been that iran would down blend the highly enriched uranium (heu)
on the eve of the war, iran even offered to treat the downblended uranium so the down blending is irreversible (that is, the downblended low enriched uranium can not be enriched to heu again if iran changes its mind, say after the deal is broken)

when you down blend the heu
you do not have a stock of heu
that is practically giving it up

what the epstein 🤡🤡 have been asking for
is that the downblending and further treatment is not good enough
that iran has to transfer, hand over all the heu directly to the us

iran retorted that their red line is that the heu will remain in iran
they've not really said anything about downblending since the war started
larijani briefly floated/accepted putin's offer for the transfer of some (or all?) of the heu to russia
but it is unclear if that was exclusively made prior to the war or made again during the war before he was assassinated
either way, khamenei ii shut it down




the tasnim report is also true
because the persians have not made any formal commitments on the nuclear issue

this is semantic

like when they exchange messages and claim it is not negotiations

in conversations with persian officials, the pakistanis and qataris do fish around for signals of what their hard red lines are and where they may be willing to compromise on the nuclear issue

it is these signals that are reported as iran agreed or made a commitment to "x"

but it really doesn't mean much
ghalibaf or pezeshkian or araghchi might say in confidence that they could see iran accepting x, y, z
but when such proposal is put in front of all the power brokers, there is no consensus for it

also
formally, the nuclear file will be negotiated in the second stage so there can be no formal commitments beforehand
informally, the mediators are trying to establish oral/verbal commitments on what the markers/guardrails of the nuclear negotiations will be




the more important factoid though

is that the us does not have any credibility in tehran

persia only takes these exchanges serious because the heavyweights in the region are heavily invested in preventing further destruction to oil/gas, desalination facilities and an economic downturn

persia also is uninterested in feeding concessions while the americans barely budge on the issues that matter
compensation, toll, sanctions, frozen funds, departure from the region

and this is ultimately why i believe an mou now is premature
you cannot offer them a pressure-release valve the first time the sh*t starts to really bite them
when they thought they had time they imposed a blockade and launched project freedom

you have to make them sweat more

what if they use the next 60 days to get more oil flowing
and halt the collapse of inventories
then in august they launch a severe attack
at that point the clock will restart and iran will have lost cumulative pressure of the last 70 days

also, persia has to insist on them removing more sanctions and unfreezing a lot of their funds before the mou is signed
that is the only thing they can hold in hand
the evil 🤡🤡 will walk back any promise and commitment once the oil start flowing

-Lord
Trump will fool this people again their eyes go clear this time. Iran na mumu.

⚡NATO is discussing a possible mission to help protect ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz if the waterway remains blocked into July.

The proposal reportedly has backing from several NATO members but not yet unanimous support.
Iran should continue mining the Strait to make any demining effort extremely difficult and costly. I also don’t think an escort strategy would work. How many ships can NATO realistically escort 24/7 without being drawn directly into the war?

⚡The Trump administration is considering military action against Cuba after months of economic pressure failed to force reforms in Havana.

Officials say the White House is frustrated that sanctions, fuel restrictions, and diplomatic pressure have not weakened the Cuban government enough to bring change.

Military options range from limited airstrikes to broader operations aimed at destabilizing the regime. U.S. Southern Command has reportedly begun drafting contingency plans, though no decision has been made.
