    I would not be surprised if Israel struck first again based on the internet chatter. The Israelis will not accept anything less than total capitulation from the Iranians (no missile program, no nuclear program, no proxy groups).

    Based on Twitter chatter. Talks have completely collapsed. No nuclear deal. No ballistic missile deal. Just a US Armada with guns pointed at Iran and potentially a second aircraft carrier arriving to the Gulf. By next week we could see the fall of Iranian government or absolutely nothing. Trumps madman theory in full effect.

    "you might die serving Israel and your Teenage daughter will be served to them too "

    I assumed today was the day we were going to start bombing Iran after the negotiations miraculously fall through, but it looks like that is still up in the air.

    But whatever this is, it's not it.

    There is a huge difference between could be used and would be used.

    Yeah, big oligarchs manipulating little MAGA would never use the money saved on little MAGA as they want them to be in debt, pissed off and blame immigrants and other scapegoats so they don't focus how the big MAGA are feasting.

    I have been reading today that there never was an intention to have the F-22s do a flyover and this is just misinformation. More so, Trump and the Iranians will likely come to a deal similar to the JCPOA:
    1. Iran agrees to commit to zero uranium enrichment for 3 years, and then agrees to under 1.5% enrichment after that
    2. Its stockpile of Highly Enriched Uranium would be transferred to a third country (russia)
    3. Iran agrees to not transfer weapons and technologies to its regional nonstate allies
    4. Iran pledges to not initiate the use of Ballistic Missiles
    5. Iran and the US agree to a nonaggression agreement

    In return we would unfreeze accounts, allow Iran to use SWIFT, and ease the crippling sanctions we have on Iran.

    Netanyahu is on his way to DC right now to try to sabotage this with the following demands:

    Full shutdown of Iran’s nuclear program,
    zero uranium enrichment,
    removal of all enriched uranium, strict long-term supervision,
    limits on Iran’s ballistic missiles so they cannot reach Israel,
    and an end to Tehran’s support for regional proxy groups.

    During the 12-Day War, the Iranian's ballistic missile program was the only thing that allowed them to hit Israel back, and the loss of that program would effectively be a death sentence for the regime. The missile program proves the Iranian regime does not need a nuclear bomb to survive. So having no missiles as a non-negotiable would mean war is definite, and I don't think Trump is eager to wage a war of regime change.

    Conspiracy Twitter believes that if Trump does not acquiesce to Netanyahu's demands that the rest of the really damning pieces of the Epstein files will "leak" as a punishment to Trump.
