Iraqi Sunni Tribal Leader Sheikh Ali Hatem went on the record with a framing that should land hard in every Western foreign-policy circle that has spent forty years assuming the Arab world treats Israel as its primary regional adversary.
His three direct positions, in order:
1. 𝐍𝐨 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐜𝐨𝐞𝐱𝐢𝐬𝐭 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐈𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐦𝐞. Not the Iraqi Sunnis, not the Gulf states, not the Arab world generally. The Khomeinist project is hostile to every Sunni-majority government in the region by design.
2. 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐦𝐩 𝐜𝐚𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐀𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐚’𝐬 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐨𝐧. That is an Iraqi tribal leader publicly endorsing the Trump-administration Iran posture against the multi-decade U.S. policy of containment-by-sanctions.
3. 𝐈𝐫𝐚𝐧 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐫𝐚𝐛𝐬’ 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐦 — 𝐈𝐬𝐫𝐚𝐞𝐥 𝐢𝐬 𝐆𝐨𝐝’𝐬 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐦. Read what he just did with that sentence. He moved Israel out of the Arab geopolitical adversary category entirely. The Israel question becomes a theological dispute belonging to a different order of analysis. The actual material threat to Arab life and Arab governance is Tehran.
This is the part the Western media will never cover. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐮𝐧𝐧𝐢 𝐀𝐫𝐚𝐛 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐞𝐭𝐥𝐲 𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐈𝐬𝐫𝐚𝐞𝐥𝐢-𝐀𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐚𝐱𝐢𝐬 𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐭 𝐈𝐫𝐚𝐧 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐰𝐨 𝐝𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐬. The Abraham Accords formalized the diplomatic version of it. October 7 accelerated it. The current Trump posture is the operational version of it. Sheikh Ali Hatem just said the quiet part on the record.
Translation for the European foreign ministries still pretending the Israel-Palestine conflict is the central regional axis: 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐰𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐠. 𝐈𝐭 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐈𝐫𝐚𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐞 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞.

This is the whole ballgame in the Iran talks: what happens to the roughly 440 kilograms of near-weapons-grade uranium Tehran has stockpiled — enough, enriched a little further, for several bombs. Trump just named his terms.
In a Truth Social post, he said the enriched uranium — what he calls the “𝘕𝘶𝘤𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘳 𝘋𝘶𝘴𝘵” — will either be “𝘪𝘮𝘮𝘦𝘥𝘪𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘺 𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘯𝘦𝘥 𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘜𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘚𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦 𝘣𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘩𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘥𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘰𝘺𝘦𝘥”, or destroyed inside Iran (or another agreed site) with international inspectors there to witness it.
Translation: no future enrichment, no quietly keeping the stockpile, no taking Tehran's word for it. The material gets removed or destroyed, verified, on the record.
Iran wants the uranium to stay on Iranian soil. That's the loophole — and it's exactly the one these terms slam shut. A deal that leaves the stockpile in Iran leaves Iran a screwdriver-turn from a bomb. This doesn't.

The three explosions Iran’s Fars news agency reported near Bandar Abbas earlier tonight now have a confirmed origin. 𝐏𝐞𝐫 𝐀𝐱𝐢𝐨𝐬, 𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚 𝐔𝐒 𝐨𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐭𝐨 𝐑𝐞𝐮𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬: 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐔𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟-𝐝𝐞𝐟𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐤𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐭 𝐈𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐝𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐈𝐫𝐚𝐧 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐧 𝐚 𝐔𝐒 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐥 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐇𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐮𝐳. A military site posing a threat to US forces and maritime traffic was destroyed. A drone-launching unit is now off the order of battle.
The sequencing is the part that matters: 𝐈𝐫𝐚𝐧 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭. 𝐈𝐫𝐚𝐧 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐭 𝐚 𝐔𝐒-𝐟𝐥𝐚𝐠𝐠𝐞𝐝 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩. 𝐈𝐫𝐚𝐧 𝐝𝐢𝐝 𝐬𝐨 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐞 𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐧𝐞𝐠𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐔𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝐢𝐧 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬. That is not the behavior of a regime that has accepted the strategic reality of its position. It is the behavior of a regime trying to extract one more leverage point before signing.
The US response is the part the Western press corps does not know how to cover honestly. 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐫𝐝 𝐝𝐨𝐜𝐮𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐔𝐒 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟-𝐝𝐞𝐟𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐤𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐭 𝐈𝐑𝐆𝐂-𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐧𝐚𝐯𝐚𝐥 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚𝐢𝐫-𝐝𝐞𝐟𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐞 𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝐭𝐰𝐨 𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐤𝐬. Each round has been narrowly scoped — one target, declared self-defense response to a documented provocation. None has been “𝘦𝘴𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯,” in the press-corps sense. All of them have been responses.
The Pentagon’s posture, as one US official told Reuters in shorthand: “𝘞𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘥𝘦𝘧𝘦𝘯𝘥 𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘴 𝘥𝘶𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘦𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦.” 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐞 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐝𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐈𝐑𝐆𝐂 𝐍𝐚𝐯𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐧 𝐔𝐒 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠.

Trump told an assembled gathering of 55 Arab and Muslim leaders that the West would no longer lecture them on their domestic affairs and would instead partner with them against Iran-backed terror. That speech directly produced the Abraham Accords three years later — UAE, Bahrain, Sudan, Morocco, Kosovo, all signing normalization treaties with Israel within a single Trump term.

Per Trump in the Cabinet Room yesterday: any Iran framework requires Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, and the other Gulf states to commit to joining the Accords in writing. Five Arab states recognized Israel in 2020. Trump is asking for four more. “𝘐 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘰𝘸𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘶𝘴, 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦 𝘩𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘵.”

The Accord signatories have outperformed every neighbor — UAE foreign direct investment up 73% since signing, Bahrain non-oil GDP at record highs, Morocco-Israel trade tripled in three years. The holdouts can see the gap. They are calculating whether holding out is worth the cost.

Yep...
Good thing the Peace thru Strength Strategy was NOT ever Reliant upon making an actual DEAL with a Radical Terrorist Regime that could NEVER BE TRUSTED to actually COMPLY with anything in an MOU agreement...
Good thing Strategic Plans have plenty of Whole of Government and Alliance Contingency Plans - to include Expanding the Abraham Accords to Include all Arab Nations in that agreement with Israel...
Acknowledging the "Enemy of My Enemy is My Friend" where all the Arab Nations are essentially in AGREEMENT that the Radical Iranian Regime Islamic Ideology is the COMMON ENEMY in the AREA!!! ;)

reports out now saying that the u.s. has struck iran again, in about the same area as was struck as a few days ago.
peace deal looking more and more less likely as iran is holding strong to it's demands..
Yep...
Good thing the Peace thru Strength Strategy was NOT ever Reliant upon making an actual DEAL with a Radical Terrorist Regime that could NEVER BE TRUSTED to actually COMPLY with anything in an MOU agreement...
Good thing Strategic Plans have plenty of Whole of Government and Alliance Contingency Plans - to include Expanding the Abraham Accords to Include all Arab Nations in that agreement with Israel...
Acknowledging the "Enemy of My Enemy is My Friend" where all the Arab Nations are essentially in AGREEMENT that the Radical Iranian Regime Islamic Ideology is the COMMON ENEMY in the AREA!!! ;)
Yep, strong indications are that this was anticipated and one of the reasons that POTUS called his impromptu Cabinet Meeting today...
Where he looked to SECWAR for Military Options and to SECSTATE for other Options as well as other members of the Cabinet for insights upon their Whole of Government Warfare Options...

LOL... When Babylon Bee is able to make jokes about the Negotiations with Iran...
It simply means that they too are in on the MUTUAL UNDERSTANDING between those involved in these Negotiations that they are in fact a RUSE where BOTH sides are KNOWINGLY pretending to Negotiate in Good Faith - while POSTURING for a BETTER POSITION for when the Negotiations Utterly FAIL and BOTH Sides strive to seek the element of surprise via alternative methods in pursuit of their respective Staunch AGENDAS...
Remembering Sun Tsu's the Art of War - where "All warfare is based on deception!"
A lot of the US media is under some delusion that "Trump needs an off ramp", and are portraying that as the goal of these negotiations. Consequently, a lot of people are confused. Babylon Bee has gone as far as to pick on people for even following the war but a lot of people have no idea what is happening or why at this point. Personally, I haven't been paying much attention; because I think this should wind down within the next few months; but in the meantime, many people aren't able to envision an end to these "transient" economic hardships.

BREAKING: U.S. and Iranian negotiators have agreed to a 60-day memorandum of understanding aimed at extending the ceasefire and opening talks on Iran’s nuclear program, though President Trump has not yet given final approval, sources tell Fox News.

“𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘺’𝘳𝘦 𝘯𝘦𝘨𝘰𝘵𝘪𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘰𝘯 𝘧𝘶𝘮𝘦𝘴.” That is how President Trump describes Iran right now — and according to Axios, the pressure just produced a deal.
US and Iranian negotiators have reportedly agreed to a 60-day “memorandum of understanding” to extend the ceasefire and open formal talks on Iran’s nuclear program. 𝐎𝐧𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡 — 𝐢𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐞𝐝. Trump was briefed and has not approved it.
The reported framework: the Strait of Hormuz reopens to free shipping, Iran resumes selling oil, and Tehran commits — on paper — to never building a nuclear weapon. First on the table would be 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐟 𝐈𝐫𝐚𝐧’𝐬 𝐡𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐥𝐲 𝐞𝐧𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐝 𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐮𝐦 and capping future enrichment, in exchange for talks on sanctions relief and frozen Iranian funds.
That last part earns a hard look. Iran has signed “commitments” before and shredded every one, and US and Iranian officials are already giving contradicting accounts of what was agreed.
Trump sounds like a man 𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐝, and he left the alternative right on the table: “𝘸𝘦’𝘭𝘭 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘴𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘫𝘰𝘣.”

Even CNN’s numbers man isn’t spinning this one. After John Cornyn’s historic primary defeat, Harry Enten ran the data and called it exactly what it is.
Cornyn — first elected in 2002, a classic Bush-era Texas Republican — lost to Ken Paxton by 𝟐𝟖 𝐩𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐬. “𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘴𝘵 𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘢𝘵 𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘵 𝘞𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘥 𝘞𝘢𝘳 𝘐𝘐 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘢 𝘙𝘦𝘱𝘶𝘣𝘭𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘚𝘦𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘰𝘳,” Enten said.

The floor and the ceiling have since traded places. “𝘋𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘭𝘥 𝘛𝘳𝘶𝘮𝘱 𝘪𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘢𝘵 𝘱𝘭𝘶𝘴 61 — 𝘢𝘯 𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳 100-𝘱𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘵 𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘧𝘵,” Enten said, while Bush has collapsed to +17.
His verdict left no wiggle room: “𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘎𝘦𝘰𝘳𝘨𝘦 𝘞. 𝘉𝘶𝘴𝘩 𝘦𝘳𝘢 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘙𝘦𝘱𝘶𝘣𝘭𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘗𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘺 𝘪𝘴 𝘴𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘺 𝘱𝘶𝘵, 𝘪𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘥𝘦𝘢𝘥. 𝘈𝘯𝘥 𝘋𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘭𝘥 𝘛𝘳𝘶𝘮𝘱’𝘴 𝘙𝘦𝘱𝘶𝘣𝘭𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘗𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘺 𝘪𝘴 𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘮𝘶𝘤𝘩 𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘷𝘦.”

Why the Uranium is Important... In addition to being able to Implicate Obama...

There is a comforting story being told about Iran: that the June strikes 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐲𝐞𝐝 its enriched uranium. The physics says otherwise.
Uranium is 𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝟗𝟐 on the periodic table. It is not a building, a centrifuge, or a weapon you can blow up. It is a fundamental element of nature.
Conventional explosives break chemical bonds and move matter around. They do not touch the atomic nucleus. You can collapse a mountain on top of uranium and every single atom is still sitting there under the rubble.
Think of gold or lead. You can melt it, scatter it, bury it a mile underground. You cannot make it 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐩 𝐛𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐠𝐨𝐥𝐝. The only thing in the universe that turns one element into another is a nuclear reaction, fission inside a reactor or a nuclear detonation, and a bunker-buster bomb does neither.
Even a nuclear strike would not erase it. It would scatter it as radioactive fallout, which is worse, not better.
Here are the numbers. As of June 13, the day before the strikes, Iran held 𝟒𝟒𝟎.𝟗 𝐤𝐢𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐦𝐬 of uranium enriched to 60 percent, one short technical step from weapons-grade (IAEA). It sits as uranium hexafluoride inside an underground tunnel complex at Isfahan.
The strikes hit the tunnel entrances. The facility itself was left largely intact, and IAEA chief Rafael Grossi has said the material is likely still buried there. The agency has now had 𝐧𝐨 𝐚𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐡𝐬 and cannot confirm where all of it is.
Iran is not even pretending the material is gone. Its own foreign minister, Abbas Araghchi, went on television and offered to dilute it:
“𝘐 𝘰𝘧𝘧𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘶𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘦 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘺 𝘵𝘰 𝘥𝘪𝘭𝘶𝘵𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘴𝘦 𝘦𝘯𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘥 𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘢𝘭, 𝘰𝘳 𝘥𝘰𝘸𝘯-𝘣𝘭𝘦𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮, 𝘢𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘴𝘢𝘺, 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘰 𝘭𝘰𝘸𝘦𝘳 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘤𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘨𝘦”
You only offer to dilute what still exists.
That 440 kilograms, enriched further, is enough for roughly 𝐭𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐰𝐞𝐥𝐯𝐞 𝐧𝐮𝐜𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐰𝐞𝐚𝐩𝐨𝐧𝐬 (IAEA). Around 42 kilograms is theoretically enough for one. None of it was vaporized. It was buried.
So let me be precise, because precision is the whole point. Bombs can wreck the machines that make this material. They cannot delete the material itself. It is still there.
The only real answer is removal. Every gram dug out, counted, and taken out of the country under verification, or down-blended under inspection. Particle by particle. There is no shortcut and no warhead that does it for you.
𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐝𝐨𝐧’𝐭 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐲 𝐚𝐧 𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭. 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐢𝐭 𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐲, 𝐨𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐢𝐭.

92% of Biden's EO's and Documents Null and Void!!!

Conservative Twins ·​

Major development shaking Washington.
Democrats are reportedly in full panic mode after it was revealed that approximately 92% of President Biden’s executive orders, documents, and official actions may be null and void due to the improper use of an autopen (a machine that replicates signatures).
Legal experts and investigators are now questioning the validity of a vast number of decisions made during the Biden presidency, arguing the autopen usage violated proper signing procedures for such high-level documents.
This could have sweeping consequences for policies, regulations, and actions taken over the past four years.

The story is still developing, but the implications are enormous
