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.

Iranian intelligence sends word to US on potential talks to end war, but US officials say no active negotiations

Reportedly, Trump the God's bosses in Jerusalem heard about that, and DID NOT LIKE IT.

Don't worry about Ana's take in this report. Look at what is being reported by Barak Ravid, an Israeli journalist, that Ana is commenting on.

Netanyahu DEMANDS To Know If Trump Is Talking To Iran W/Out Him

YouTube: Netanyahu DEMANDS To Know If Trump Is Talking To Iran W/Out Him (The Young Turks)

I doubt God and Savior Trump ever had any intention of negotiating with Iran "in good faith". As I recall, his demands started out with Iran downmixing it's 60% U to just enough for nuclear power, and never enriching beyond what was needed for power generation again. Then the demand escalated to handing over all U, and all enrichment equipment, and never touching any nuclear material ever again. The Iranians were reportedly willing to discuss these points. Then the demand escalated to handing over all their ballistic missiles. Iran said that was a no-go, as the ballistic missiles are their deterrent force against any foreign attacker. Last week, the Omani mediator was optimistic a compromise could be reached. Seems likely Trump was simply putting on a show, while forces were put in place, and they waited for an opportunity when several Iranian officials were in the same place. because there was never any intent for anything other than war, and no end point other than totally crushing the Iranian regime.
