@SpencerGuard@piersmorgan Thank you so much for your reasoned commentary. Of course, Piers needs to reflect the talk which gets him the highest ratings.
@JewishWarrior13 Shia/Sunni. The Gulf States don't trust Iran either but Iran lives in their neighborhood. The Gulf States will do and say whichever way the prevailing winds are blowing. Nothing is permanent there except the Gulf States playing both sides.
@FridaGhitis Even if Trump witholds arms and support to Israel, it won't deter Israel from attacking Hezbollah. So at a certain point the focus will then turn back towards Iran, with much higher stakes this time- not regime change but Iran threatening the world economy. (cross fingers).
@lill_the_swiss@streetwize@netanyahu As a linguistics and literature scholar you can appreciate the written word. Bibi's (and Israel's) biggest failure is not getting their story told by journalists and observers. They are badly losing the propaganda war, which in the world of social media, is paramount.
@JakeWSimons why isn't Israel allowing journalists access to the north, so they could verify these claims? Israel needs to start playing a better social media game.
@FridaGhitis It seems like Trump appointed Vance as the point person for this. T knew it would be unpopular. Was he saving Rubio for '28 and sabotaging Vance?
@AmitSegal Is it possible that Trump's sudden opposition to Israel is related to the November mid-terms and he wants to shore up anti-Israel support for Republican candidates? When Iran fails to comply in a few months (post-Nov) Trump will have his excuse to go back in. Hopeful thinking?
@JewishWarrior13 To the U.S. the status quo is desired. To Iran the status quo allows them to prepare for the next assault of Israel, and clandestine nuclear development.
@JewishWarrior13 In other words we are back to when Obama signed the JCPOA: Iran gets money, Hezbollah gets money, Iran cheats and continues w/ nuclear ambition, Hezbollah attacks Israel, door is open for Russia and China, Iranians and Lebanese still suffer, Israel is alone.
