Let’s stop using the word “deal”! The “agreement” is at best, a 60-day ceasefire extension: Iran gets partial economic relief (ransom) in exchange for reopening (hostage freeing) Strait of Hormuz (a problem created by the war itself), while all core issues, nuclear, missiles, proxies, sanctions, remain unsolved.
It is all conveniently masked with an MOU to "negotiate" the hard issues over the next 60 days, as if 47 years of confrontation with Iran and two wars simply didn’t try enough! BINGO.
The pause, however, might ease oil markets and inflation, contingent on clear success and durability of incremental de-escalation steps. Hail Mary!!
Middle East leaders encouragement of Trump, during a group call last night, to take the deal with Iran is less an endorsement of his judgment, and more hedging against his diminished “strategic stamina”. They know by now that he will not sustain what it takes to finish the job, let alone to define what that means in the first place! And, some are quietly pleased that this outcome puts brakes on Netanyahu and Israel's strategic supremacy, even if the price is handing Iran an ambiguous and contested victory.
This is not a 1945 Japan/Germany scenario. It is 1953 between South and North Korea. No structural transformation, just a pause that Iran might use better than its adversaries.
History is consistent: durable peace follows decisive victory, not managed stalemate.
Post-WWII total victory resulted in 80 years of peace among former great powers. No sequel war.
WWI ended in armistice, not occupation. Versailles humiliated without defeating. The sequel arrived within 20 years.
The pattern holds across cases. Napoleon's clear defeat gave Europe decades of order. The Korean armistice gave us a frozen conflict still technically active today. Vietnam's negotiated withdrawal gave the region chaos.
Frozen conflicts, even for short periods, just reset the timer and reward whoever prepares better for round two.
Stalemates management feels responsible, but they often just postpone the bill, with compounded interest.
If you stand with the UAE- REPOST now. Share the picture.Stand against the Islamic regime in Iran. Stand with humanity. Stand with civilization against darkness, against backwardness. Choose your side. Silence is not neutral.
Early detection of asthma and COPD can be life-changing.
Finding issues early means you can start the right treatments, like inhalers, lifestyle adjustments, or rehabilitation, before symptoms progress into critical conditions. Screening also ensures you get the care you need without delay, giving you peace of mind and protecting your quality of life.
Take the first step towards your lung health today.
Javad Zarif walked out of the room saying no deal and John Kerry ran after him. Multiple times. It was an embarrassment to America. Now it’s VP Vance walking out of the room by direction of a President who knows exactly what he’s doing and why. The era of appeasement is over.
@RichardHaass Mr Richard I can fully comprehend that an elite like you would always prefer democracy & negotiations.
What you need to understand , as you never lived in that part of the world maybe, is that this regime calls for death not just for US, for anyone who opposes their opinion
📌💡🇮🇷🇱🇧 LEBANON IS COUNTING THE LIVING. IRAN IS COUNTING THE DEAD.
On Friday, Lebanese President Joseph Aoun @LBpresidency greenlighted a first-of-its-kind phone call between Lebanon's Ambassador in Washington, Nada Hamadeh Moawad, @LebEmbassyUS and her Israeli counterpart, @yechielleiter, to prepare the ground for Tuesday's direct talks at the State Department, under American auspices. The discussions involve a ceasefire and the broader relationship between Lebanon and Israel.
Same day. Tehran. @mb_ghalibaf, heading to Islamabad for what might be the most consequential negotiations in Iran's history, posted a photo showing the faces of girls killed in the Minab school strike, filling the empty seats of the plane he'd boarded. "My traveling companions," he said.
Let that land.
Lebanon is counting the living and negotiating their future. Iran is counting the dead and monetizing them as diplomatic assets.
One country is asking: how do we stop the dying? The other is asking: how do we use the dead?
These schoolgirls should be alive. They would be, if different choices had been made. Instead, their faces are propaganda currency for the men who made those choices.
This is the Lebanon we are defending. This is the Iran we are fighting.
The difference isn't military. It's moral.
@saif_aldareei I can’t agree more !!! He was just hiding the issue under the carpet thinking delaying or hiding an issue will be just ok as it’s not there !
Democracy with an impartial party who has a clear agenda , not hidden at all, won’t be democracy !
Its submissiveness !
@NadimKoteich You know , they say tough times , critical challenges don’t build character… they reveal it! The true character of Iran regime is revealed ! How can anyone leave such a threat , such spite of what they call themselves neighbour to the Gulf countries , unchecked & unchallenged?
Just in.. The President of UAE
“Residents, you’re my responsibility
excuse us if we ever fall short. The UAE
is fine and strong.
To the foes: We’re beautiful and exemplary, but our flesh is tough.
Don’t try us. We know our duty.” 🇦🇪❤️
Dubai. Dubai. Dubai. Dubai. Dubai. Dubai. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is a war between Iran, Israel, and the United States.
Wake up dudes! Provide some serious context.. analysis.. breadth…
Rest assured, the UAE is strong, militarily, economically, and reputationally.
It has withstood worse.
What it should not have to withstand is the coordinated character assassination attempts on its cities.
The missiles and drones were intercepted. So will the narrative.
