@JZarif Definition of negotiation- “Bargaining & negotiation have been defined as forms of conflict management ..who have a conflict of needs and desires that choose to negotiate through a give / take - involving proposals & counterproposals to search for mutually acceptable agreement.”
Want to know why negotiations did not succeed?
JD Vance: "they have chosen not to accept our terms."
Bingo.
No negotiations – at least with Iran – will succeed based on "our/your terms."
The US must learn: you can't dictate terms to Iran.
It's not too late to learn. Yet.
Tragic news continues to arrive in these days from the Middle East, especially from Gaza. I express my profound sadness regarding last Thursday’s attack by the Israeli army on the Catholic Parish of the Holy Family in Gaza City, which as you know killed three Christians and gravely wounded others. I pray for the victims, Saad Issa Kostandi Salameh, Foumia Issa Latif Ayyad, Najwa Ibrahim Latif Abu Daoud, and I am particularly close to their families and to all the parishioners.
When people ask how is Israel inciting antisemitism around the world, this is how.
The glorious Star of David, a symbol of one of the great Abrahamic faiths, being used by a rogue state as cover for its torture and abuse of Palestinian prisoners, detainees, and hostages.

My latest piece for Zeteo on the ongoing, brazen and shameful double standards in our media coverage of death and suffering in the Middle East.

Judaism is never Zionism.
Judaism is a religion and Zionism is a political ideology that has nothing to do with Judaism.
How can being against Zionism count as being against Jews or Judaism?
Zionism is a political ideology created a century ago by Zionist leaders who did not even believe in Judaism.
The mainstream media, which is under the control of the Zionists, constantly lies to you as if all Jews are on the side of Israel, but this is a big lie. Thousands of Torah Jews in the world are against Israel and Zionism.
Rabbi Chaim Brisker, one of the greatest rabbis a century ago, once said: “There have been many heretical groups in Jewish history, but Zionism is the worst.
Being against Zionism is never Antisemitism. Criticizing Israel is never antisemitism. Zionism is not Judaism. Israel is not a Jewish state. There are thousands of anti-Zionist, anti-Israel Jews in the world, and now you claim that Jews are the enemies of Judaism.
Billionaires should not own social media platforms.
Billionaires should not run our newspapers.
Billionaires should not control our politics.
A free media is a democratic media - a public good that is owned and run by us all.
Insane that Israel is carrying out 100s of air strikes on Syria and no Western leader will say a word.
The West has not an inch of moral high ground from which to lecture Russia on bombing Ukraine or illegally annexing Ukrainian territory.
I asked Piers Morgan about why he spread Israeli lies about "beheaded" babies on October 7th and whether he has any regrets. I brought receipts.
