So much for the just-signed memorandum of understanding: Iran today announced it has closed the Strait of Hormuz. This is the perfect opportunity to walk away from this one-sided document.
Why is Israel getting blamed for trying to protect its citizens from hezbollah attacks? Iran funds and arms hezbollah, encourages them to kill israelis in israel and then blames israel for defending its own citizens. We should be focusing our anger on the iranian dictatorship not on a democracy fighting to protect its citizens
Trump says it's "a little bit unfair" to tell Iran they can't have missiles.
It's really tough to hear that as an Israeli who literally saw these deadly missiles above me with my own eyes.
I can't believe I'm hearing this.
Greetings, President Trump,
You may have secured a temporary deal, but you've shaken the trust of almost everyone around you except perhaps JD Vance and Iran's Supreme Leader. Attacking friends who stood with you in wartime while defending an enemy that attacked both of you is how nations stop trusting you, even if they keep smiling for the cameras. The way many of us, including me, see it, Israel is America's biggest ally in the Middle East. Telling Israel not to hit Hezbollah for the sake of a deal with Iran is like telling America not to hit al-Qaeda because you're negotiating with Hamas.
And a deal that lasts only 60 days? That's not diplomacy, that's a ceasefire with an expiry date shorter than a carton of milk.
@theblaze @therealdinaldjtrump is Neville Chamberlain incarnate. This deal with the Iranian mullahs will forever tarnish what little good he has heretofore accomplished. A sad day for the USA after 250 years of exceptionalism .
@marklevinshow@billpostmus This is the sign of an American President whose blind ambition to be glorified as a peacemaker has clouded his vision of the right thing to do for the civilized world. Big talk; poor judgement .
@marklevinshow Trump’s narcissistic desire to be heralded as the ultimate peace maker will only lead to a stronger and more virulent Iran. A sad ending to a once-promising second term.
I am deeply concerned about what we are hearing about an Iran “deal,” being pushed by some voices in the administration.
President Trump’s decision to strike Iran was the most consequential decision of his second term. He was right to do so, and we achieved extraordinary military results—including destroying all of their missiles & drones and sinking their entire navy.
If the result of all that is to be an Iranian regime—still run by Islamists who chant “death to America”—now receiving billions of dollars, being able to enrich uranium & develop nuclear weapons, and having effective control over the Strait of Hormuz, then that outcome would be a disastrous mistake.
The details are still coming out—and I pray the early reports are wrong—but the fact that Biden’s Rob Malley is praising the deal is not encouraging.
President Trump believes in peace through strength, and his strong leadership has already made America much safer. He should continue to hold the line, defend America & enforce the red lines he has repeatedly drawn.
