The ceasefire agreement with Iran with the opening of the Strait of Hormuz is welcome news. Democrats should support it. I am glad it includes a provision for mutual respect of the US & Iran's sovereignty so we do not launch a dumb war of choice again.
The war was a costly lesson for the US. As expected, Trump failed to bring about regime change. The terms seem no better than what Obama secured under the JCPOA nearly a decade ago. America lost 14 precious service members and wasted billions of dollars on this foolish endeavor.
But today, we can be relieved that gas and food costs will start coming down for Americans. And that no more American or civilian lives will be lost.
It also shows that when the Congress votes to end war --as we did last week -- it can be a wake up call for the President to listen to the anti-war sentiments of the American people.
We can strengthen our chances of this deal holding by cutting all military/intel assistance to Israel, they took every opportunity to tank this deal & will likely do so again unless we take action.
We should also quietly get our troops out of the bases in the Gulf that can be reached by Iran. This ensures Iranian hardliners can’t strike us to drag us back into the fight.
Take away every factor that we can control that could force us back into the war on Israel or Iran’s terms.
Set all conditions that we can control in our favor.
Congratulations to the bravest nation in the world.
You have defied all odds and set a powerful example of resilience, humanity and solidarity for entire generations.
Your courage and determination will be remembered for centuries to come.
I bow my head in awe.
Netanyahu’s stupidity broke the deadlock at the negotiating table. Contrary to some speculation, there was no final text until his criminal attack forced Trump to accept Iran’s demands, especially on Lebanon.
War is over now:
U.S. bases in the Middle East are gone, Iran is getting paid billions, Iran will now charge Hormuz tolls & Israel was forced to withdraw from Lebanon.
🇮🇷 GREAT JOB IRAN!
BREAKING: Iran says the US has agreed to pay $300 billion in reconstruction funds directly to Iran as part of the deal Pakistan announced, alongside the release of $24 billion in frozen funds with $12 billion released before negotiations even start, per Mehr News.
This directly contradicts Trump's & Vance's claim that no funds will be transferred to Iran at all.
If Trump denies this is true, there never was a deal. If Trump confirms, the US has fully capitulated to Iran's demands.
TRUMP: "If Iran doesn't soon make a negotiation deal, I'll blow up the whole country."
ABBAS ARAGHCHI: "Dying for my country would be an honor for me. I have absolutely no fear of death. threats don't work against us."
Brave Iranian Foreign Minister🔥
تجاوز صهیونیستها به ضاحیه باردیگر نشان داد آمریکا یا ارادهای برای اجرای تعهدات خود ندارد یا توان آن را. با چراغ سبز نشان دادن به رژیم نمیتوانید امتیاز بگیرید. بازی پلیس بد و پلیس خوب قدیمی شده است.
اگر اراده و توان اجرای تعهدات خود را ندارید، سخن گفتن از ادامه مسیر ممکن نیست.
I've received over 50 threatening messages from Zionists because of the videos I posted documenting the brutal crimes committed by Israel in Gaza.
I need your support and kind words to continue until my last breath 🇵🇸
⭕️ Jeremy Scahill on what Iranian sources told him about dealing with President Trump: “‘We’ve had senior psychologists work up a psychological profile of what they think is going on with Trump’s brain. And we started to cater our messages by running them past senior psychologists before delivering them to Trump.’ And they said that ‘we then started to see some progress.’ They almost talked about like a clinical sense, like they’re dealing with a patient.”
