"The terms that Iran leaked out to the Fake News have NOTHING to do with the terms that were agreed to, in writing..." - President Donald J. Trump

Withdraw all forces from Persian gulf, lift all sanctions on Iran, give Iran $12B immediately and $12B more in 60 days, give Iran $300B in construction, let Iran control/toll Strait of Hormuz. US gets promise to discuss Iran nukes. This is not a deal. It is a US surrender.

According to reports from Iran, the proposed deal may be even more scandalous than what was reported last night. Iran’s Mehr News Agency, citing a source close to the Iranian negotiating team, claims the draft Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the United States and Iran includes: • An immediate and permanent ceasefire on all fronts, including Lebanon • A U.S. commitment not to interfere in Iran’s internal affairs • Removal of the naval blockade within 30 days • Withdrawal of U.S. forces from areas near Iran • Reopening of the Strait of Hormuz within 30 days under Iranian arrangements • Suspension of sanctions on Iran’s oil and petrochemical exports • Full access to Iran’s financial assets • 60 days of negotiations toward a final nuclear agreement • Release of $24 billion in frozen Iranian funds, with half of the amount released before talks even begin • Iran’s missile program and support for proxy groups would not be part of the negotiations • The final agreement would be endorsed by the UN Security Council • The draft is still awaiting review and approval by Iranian authorities If accurate, this would amount to massive upfront concessions to Tehran in exchange for promises and future negotiations.

This Christian disorientation stems from the divine ambiguity embedded in their trinity. Emphasizing Jesus Christ as god gives the narrative of Jews as Christ-killers real traction, especially in the Gospel of John. Emphasizing Yahweh as the primary god makes the idea of the Jews as the chosen people and god's favourites a coherent position. Yahweh migrated from the south as an Israelite god of war, one of many in the Canaanite pantheon. At the time, El was the leading, fatherly god, the patriarch of the Divine Council. Eventually, El gave his son Yahweh dominion over the Israelites as their war god. As the Israelites faced strife and defeat, they had to inflate Yahweh's power. Over the years and battles, he became increasingly conflated with El. Yahweh's amalgamation with El included taking El's wife Asherah in a move thick with Oedipal tensions. The question then becomes: if the tribal god of Israel was promoted to the title of universal god, did he maintain a dual role as the war god of Israel? The Dispensationalists answer yes, and their theological argument follows from this premise. The unresolved conflation of the Israelite tribal war god with the universal creator means that both emphases remain live options within Christian theology. The antisemite who calls Jews Christ-killers and the philo-Semitic Dispensationalist draw from the same unresolved god. Those who identify more with the universalist El reject Jewish particularist privilege, while partisans of the youthful Yahweh warrior god embrace it and mirror Mike Huckabee's rhetoric. Now we are seeing a geopolitical echo of this ancient dynamic in how Israeli interests are increasingly conflated with those of the United States — an example of ancient mythic structures re-emerging in the present.

WATCH: U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee says Israel is "successful" not because of military, economic, or political factors, but because God directly favors and protects it.

This is a significant operational achievement for Iran. The AR-327 radar at Bahrain’s highest point is a very important piece of the regional missile defense and battlefield awareness architecture. What you need to realize to see the significance of this hit is this: Radars are the easiest thing to target bc they’re fixed addresses that emit such powerful electromagnetic signals. This makes very vulnerable. And because they are so operationally important, they have to be very strongly defended by interceptor systems. There is almost certainly a multi-layer ballistic missile defense-in-depth to defend this particular radar. Now if you recall, the Iranians managed to hit at least 14 US radars across the region, include four AN/TPY-2 (THAAD) and at least one AN/FPS-132. This happened in the first two days of the war when the Iranians fired off hundreds of missiles. In that case, they were able to defeat the interceptors and hit the best-defended hard-kill targets like radars because of the size of the salvos. Now they’ve bagged a big radar kill. The math shows that, even with a CEP of 5m, Iran would’ve needed something like a salvo of 12 missiles. So the possibilities are: (1) they did fire a dozen missiles at this radar, (2) they fired a hypersonic missile with terminal maneuvering that could not be intercepted, (3) the interceptor inventories are running so low that US policy has shifted from firing 10 interceptors at each inbound missile to firing far fewer; maybe as few as just one or two. Regardless of which of these hypotheses is correct, this is a very serious setback for the US. It may explain why the Iranians did not attack high value targets like warships or try hard to get birds on the apron (my Ben Gurion nightmare). They went after the eyes. There may have been more hits. So the kinetic aspect of this war of position is a counter-radar war, a two-sided one. Maybe this is why Trump taco’d on his latest threat. He was probably told by the military that had he kept going, the US would get blinded before Iran does.

🚨BREAKING: Over 200 Missiles Target Tehran as US Launches All-Out Attack Reports indicate a major strike involving over 200 missiles hitting Tehran. Intelligence sources say the U.S. has vowed to completely destroy Iranian bases in an all-out assault. President Trump is not holding back. The regime’s provocations have triggered a full response.

Will President Trump finally recognize that there is no acceptable deal to be had with a jihadist theocracy committed to mass martyrdom and mass destruction? He needs to—and soon. The alternative is clear: maximum support for the millions of Iranians who want to bring down the regime and are already back on the streets. Their numbers will grow. Trump should stand with them.

Europe's most ambitious €100B sixth-generation fighter program just officially imploded. Macron and Merz have finally conceded what analysts have known for years: Dassault and Airbus were never going to agree. What killed the Future Combat Air System? Well, it wasn't a lack of engineering talent. It was a clash of egos... national egos and industrial intellectual property control, to be exact. Dassault absolutely refused to compromise on the lead development role, while Airbus fought fiercely for an equal technology transfer split. 1/2

This interview hurt my soul. The mistreatment of black women and journalists by this President is down right embarrassing and unacceptable. Kristin Welker is neither crooked or stupid. She is a history making journalist who has earned the right to be respected. The President should apologize immediately.
