🚨BREAKING: For the first time, the original Pakistani cypher — cable I-0678, the document that triggered the removal of former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan — is being released in full by Drop Site.
Araghchi’s tweet reflected an understanding in Tehran, likely based on what they heard from Pakistan, that if they took a positive step by opening Strait of Hormuz, US would reciprocate by lifting the blockade. But Trump kept the blockade in place, and through his many tweets, suggested that Iran was surrendering on the nuclear issue.
This has only fed Iran’s suspicions about Trump and that Islamabad like Geneva is a diplomatic ruse before another military attack. The door to diplomacy is not closed, but it has now become considerably more difficult. Deliberately or not, Trump has undermined diplomacy and raised likelihood of more war.
Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan on Iran negotiations:
It is essential to act with common sense against any known attempts to sabotage the Israeli negotiation process.
In particular, the international community must remain alert to potential acts of sabotage by Israel and be prepared to respond appropriately.
Meanwhile on Argentina TV:
"The entire Israeli government must be killed. No mercy whatsoever. The world must execute them like the Nazis at Nuremberg. Not one should remain. Once the dog is dead, the rabies is over."
There are going to be tons of movies on this where the American pilot, if still alive, is outgunned and outnumbered with no support from the Empire, fighting a million "rabid" Iranians frothing at their mouth, eventually getting rescued & nursed by a hot Iranian dissident widow.
President Trump spent five minutes of his Cabinet meeting boasting of his thrift with a story about negotiating for $5 personalized Sharpies.
The company that makes the permanent markers said the exchange never happened. https://t.co/87XzjYT8Dy
The idea that every sovereign country near Israel must cap its conventional weapons, limit its defensive capabilities, restrict missile and fighter jet ranges, and even dismantle its own military industries—just so Israel can "feel safe"—is completely absurd.
Which other nation on Earth demands and receives this kind of privilege?
This exceptionalism is especially ridiculous coming from a regime with such an inherently aggressive posture and track record in the region.
You don't seem to understand international law. UNGA resolution 3314 explains that when a third country allows its territory to be used by another state to launch an attack, it crosses a legal line from "neutral bystander" to "accomplice."
Under Res. 3314, this specific scenario is addressed directly as an act of aggression:
"The action of a State in allowing its territory, which it has placed at the disposal of another State, to be used by that other State for perpetrating an act of aggression against a third State."
Now head to the UN library and do some reading. Or you can skim this:

With highest respects and consideration of our utmost reverence to Your Excellency:
Should we also apologize for having our country established amongst US bases in the region ?
The U.S. backed Israel's Gaza blockade, cutting aid under "security" claims, yet condemns Iran for defending itself in Strait of Hormuz.
Double standard: Israel's crimes are OK while Iran's defense against aggressors is condemned. International law is not tool of convenience.
