For a long, long time, I’ve tried to engage with lots of people here. But now the abuse and the insults are growing like topsy. So I’m going to start blocking people who can’t act like adults. Sorry not sorry.

Latest from Trump. Suggesting negotiations are over but...well, this is a well-trodden path

[Adam Parsons @adamparsons]

@PeterAndrewss @SaulStaniforth @mehdirhasan At least I exist "Peter". At least I have that.

[Adam Parsons @adamparsons]

@PeterAndrewss @SaulStaniforth @mehdirhasan If it brings joy to your bot-like life of going to an echo chamber and being told what to think then I’m happy to be of service

[Adam Parsons @adamparsons]

@PeterAndrewss @SaulStaniforth @mehdirhasan Ha ha "writer and journalist"

[Adam Parsons @adamparsons]

@PeterAndrewss @SaulStaniforth @mehdirhasan Peter the "journalist"

Two days ago, the President said a deal could be two or three days away.
JD Vance says it could take a week, or weeks, or maybe months

[CBS Sunday Morning 🌞 @CBSSunday]

Vice President JD Vance said early Tuesday he believes the U.S. is "very close" to reaching a deal with Iran that would prevent the country from obtaining a nuclear weapon. He told CBS News' @costareports an agreement could come within weeks or take months, but “we're going to know a lot before the midterm elections.”

🚨🚨Trump on Truth Social: I have just been informed by our Great Military that last night the Iranians shot down one of our highly sophisticated Apache Helicopters while patrolling over the Strait of Hormuz. There were two pilots involved, both are safe and uninjured. Nevertheless, the United States must, of necessity, respond to this attack. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

La FIFA a indiqué que l'arbitre somalien Omar Abdulkadir Artan, refoulé à son entrée aux États-Unis, ne pourra pas officier lors de la Coupe du monde. L'instance se range ainsi derrière la décision politique de l'un des trois pays hôtes du Mondial.

As Iran and Israel agree to end attacks on each other, for now, @jonathansamuels speaks to Sky's Middle East correspondent @adamparsons about the relationship between the US president and the Israeli prime minister.

Israel is attacking southern Lebanon once more.
Iran had earlier said that its decision to cease attacks on Israel was linked to Israel launching no more attacks on, yup, Lebanon.
We’re back to…what happens next?

[Amit Segal @AmitSegal]

Here are the equations –

Hezbollah – if Israel attacks southern Lebanon, we will strike Kiryat Shmona.

Israel – if Kiryat Shmona is attacked, we will strike Beirut.

Iran – if Beirut is attacked, we will strike Israel.

Israel – if Israel is attacked, we will strike Iran.

Iran – if southern Lebanon is attacked, we will strike Israel.

The first four have already occurred; the fifth is the important one. Its purpose: to make Trump force Israel to stop destroying Hezbollah in southern Lebanon.

Hours will tell.

Oil price falls on the news. Now up just 1.4% on the day

[Adam Parsons @adamparsons]

Fars News Agency(Iran): security forces have ended military operations against Israel, but warned of more severe attacks if Israel attacks Lebanon again.

[Adam Parsons @adamparsons]

@PeterAndrewss @SaulStaniforth That is, by some way, the most pathetic threat/insult I have ever received. And I've had a lot. Whoever is paying your wages to spread discord and propaganda - they're getting robbed

[Adam Parsons @adamparsons]

@PeterAndrewss @SaulStaniforth Remarkable how much time you - as a "journalist" - spend retweeting partial analysis without any sense of balance or seeking your own insights. Almost like you're a one-eyed propagandist rather than a "journalist". Anyway, hope the bosses are happy with your "reporting". Bye

[Adam Parsons @adamparsons]

Trump says Israel and Iran both want an immediate ceasefire. Let's see if they can both cease firing.

[Adam Parsons @adamparsons]

TRUMP: “Israel and Iran must immediately stop shooting.”
But will they listen?

[Adam Parsons @adamparsons]

@PeterAndrewss @SaulStaniforth Thanks “Peter”. I’ll remember those wise words from a “journalist”.

[Adam Parsons @adamparsons]

@PeterAndrewss @SaulStaniforth You claim to be a writer and journalist, Peter. Care to justify that?
