The United States and Iran have agreed to a draft proposal approved by top negotiators, including Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Qalifbaf and Vice President JD Vance, with both sides expected to announce the finalization of a peace deal to end the fighting on all fronts by Sunday afternoon, a source close to the negotiations told The Washington Times.
Why are we aping into No Regime Change in Iran predictions? Well, the change has already happened but doesn't fit the rules. The regime changed by aerial assassination from one run by a mean old Mollah-- who nevertheless had a Fatwa against nuclear weapons-- to a younger one whose priority is making sure Iranian Revolutionary Guards have zero constraints, with even less regard for the suffering of the domestic population or fear of retaliating militarily against its enemies. Not quite the regime change America and Israel were hoping for it seems.
