1, "Some good news is expected from both sides soon. A deal is expected to be closed tonight." - CNN

2, IMPORTANT NOTE: The ongoing negotiations are about an extension of Trump’s deadline for hitting Iranian infrastructure, not an end to the war.

3, "US and Arab officials say talks are now centering around a deadline extension, not a ceasefire deal." - WSJ

4, So basically what's happening is Trump wants to extend his deadline once again but he doesn't want to look stupid and retarded, so he's trying to make it look like there's a good reason for it (and possibly pushing for some kind of token Iranian concession) so the world doesn’t ridicule him. Only Trump could get involved in negotiations to extend a deadline which was imposed by himself.

NOTE: A series of posts by the Middle East Spectator - chronologically.

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇱/🇮🇷 WHAT HAPPENED, BASED ON CURRENT INFORMATION:

– The U.S. has agreed to stop all attacks against Iran for a period of two weeks.

– In return, Iran will not strike U.S. assets or other targets in the Persian Gulf.

– The Strait of Hormuz remains CLOSED during these two weeks, but if Iran doesn’t open it, the war will resume.

– Israel is NOT part of the ceasefire and Iran will continue targeting it.

🇮🇷🇨🇳🇵🇰⚡️- A last-minute intervention by China helped lead to Iran accepting Pakistan's two-week ceasefire proposal, three Iranian officials tell the New York Times.

China asked Iran to show flexibility and defuse tensions amid growing economic uncertainty caused by damages to Iranian infrastructure.

🇺🇸🇮🇷🇮🇱⚡️- BREAKING: Iran says the United States has agreed to their 10 point proposal which includes:

- No future aggression
- Iran keeps control of the Strait of Hormuz
- Acceptance of uranium enrichment
- All sanctions lifted
- U.S. forces withdraw from the region
- Compensation paid to Iran
- War ends on all fronts

I disagree that all parties have shown "remarkable wisdom."

Netanyahu's reaction to the ceasefire

The Prime Minister of the Zionist regime, in response to the ceasefire and the acceptance of Iran's terms by the US President, said that Israel supports the decision to suspend attacks for two weeks, but this ceasefire will not include Lebanon.

He also added that Tel Aviv's support for Trump's decision is conditional on Iran reopening the Strait of Hormuz and stopping attacks.

And right on cue, here comes Netanyahu to detonate any chance of a peaceful conclusion.

Well, you really fucked things up and now you are going to be taking credit for "peace" and "reconstruction?" And think of all the "big money" to be made... Of course, this whole thing has cost us $40 billion so far, at least, but some people (not me or anyone reading this channel) will make new fortunes, I'm sure.

And really, nothing was accomplished other than killing a lot of innocent people.

America in the Strait of Hormuz

Do I really have to tell people there is ZERO possibility of the US ever agreeing to "peace" with Iran or honoring any agreement made with the US?

...especially after the US has launched TWO wars of aggression against Iran 2 years in a row DURING NEGOTIATIONS and KILLING the very people the US was supposedly "negotiating" with?

....especially considering the US is waging war on Iran as part of a wider war on multipolarism and especially China - a wider war the US is STILL escalating against Russia and preparing for against China...?

Do I need to repeat myself and warn this is about rearming, reorganizing, and/or creating plausible deniability ahead of a US-planned, organized, and backed "Israeli" strike on Iran - possibly with nuclear weapons?

Or is everyone going to once again allow their emotions, bias, and fantasies take over when they hear news they want to hear?

When does common sense come in and allow people to finally discern "if it sounds too good to be true it probably ISN'T true?"

The Israeli Army announces it carried out the most intense attack in Lebanon since the start of the operation, targeting more than 100 sites within 10 minutes across all Lebanon: Dahye, the capital Beirut, Bekaa, the south, and Hermel.

NOTE: This is ongoing. Many civilian casualties. Entire neighborhoods reduced to rubble. Alsaa are friends of the channel, check them out for updates.

Footage of the fire at the Iranian Lavan oil refinery.

This whole "ceasefire" seems to have not even lasted 12 hours.
