The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

According to who?

The New York Times:

Recall the conflict in "news" yesterday; bubblevision saying Trump refused Iran's offer, the bulk of the MSM saying Iran refused Trump's offer, and the Israeli media saying "Bibi" told Trump not to made a cease fire agreement.

Why is there a conflict there? Trump proffered a 15-point plan, which Iran refused. Iran proffered a 10-point plan, which Trump refused. It's almost certain that Israel has asked Trump not to make a ceasefire; the same has been reported of Saudi Arabia and the UAE. All of those things can be simultaneously true. In fact, all of those things actually seem pretty likely to be true - all have been reported from a number of sources.

What's the conflict?
