— It’s funny that Trump and people in his administration keep presenting it as an achievement that Iran said it won’t get nuclear weapons. Iran has made that commitment consistently, and various times, since the early 2000s. Most importantly, it was explicitly stated as a part of Obama’s deal (JCPOA).
— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 President Trump on Truth Social: ‘Fake News CNN said today, routinely, that my Iran Nuclear Deal doesn’t talk about Nuclear, when actually it states, very clearly, that Iran will not have a Nuclear Weapon. It then goes on, in very strong and lengthy detail, to discuss various other aspects of Nuclear. In...

Hezbollah is about to release footage of an FPV strike on an Israeli rescue vehicle. I think this is the rescue vehicle that attempted to save the fat woman soldier a few days ago.

— I suspect Iran will also soon issue a statement, and likely an MoU will be officially announced soon. Now what matters is the details. @Middle_East_Spectator
— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 NOTE: It is unusual and strange that President Trump has lifted the naval blockade before an MoU has been mutually agreed by both sides In the post, Trump even says he is still making his ‘final determination’ on the deal. So why was the blockade lifted if he hasn’t agreed to the MoU yet? It is either a...
