Lots of talk and threats from many places, but still time to make a deal. I can’t understand what Iran is thinking. Give up nuclear weapons pursuit, which you will never get anyway, or be completely destroyed. Seems like an easy choice.
What's the point? They halted the pursuit for a while, but the sanctions and attacks against them continued. Can't you see how Israel attacked them just when they were about to talk it out?

Having nukes is the only way to ensure their survival and prevent Iran from becoming another Gaza. Israel is the one repeatedly condemned by the UN, not Iran. Had the US not blocked them all, Israel would have been condemned even more times by the UNSC. The real threat to world peace is Israel, not Iran.

Closing the route is illogical. It allows many countries to join against Iran. No way they can handle that. Just make an agreement, war stops, oil crashes.
Everyone was against Russia when they invaded Ukraine, now everyone's against Ukraine cause they resisted and managed to defend themselves effectively.

And you think they won't get destroyed if they stop trying to make the bomb? Look at Ukraine, that's what happen if a country ever in contact with nuclear tech (which means they're significant enough in geopolitics) suddenly give up their nuclear pursuit.

The majority of people are decent , humble individuals , looking for a simple life for themselves and their children .

It’s the ideologies which transform the mindset . Sadly, it’s prevalent in every society .

Solution: Education , Education , Education .

Keep the masses ignorant , control the media. control the narrative - job done .

Maybe we need to differentiate between the hardline Zionists and Judaism . The same stereotypes of any religion/ ideology , the hardline elements always inflict the ultimate damage .

The Middle East conflict has gone on for time immemorial, religion and its teachings have a lot to answer for (every religion) , look at the advent of the Catholic Church for some examples of horrific historical events . Man cannot live peacefully , it / we as a species haven’t evolved that far - Race , colour , creed , land, resources - are reasons for direct conflict .

Truly amazing considering in this day and age with the achievements humans have made on so many frontiers .

What does UN stands for? is it Universal Nonsense?
The current "administration" of Iran has had decades to negotiate, they have made any further negotiations difficult by their own making.

There'll be war, there'll be peace
But everything one day will cease
All the iron turn to rust
All the proud men turn to dust
So all things time will mend
And so this song will end

A soundtrack to the film La Vallee by Barbet Schroeder who was born In Tehran, Iran.

Being a first-world country doesn't mean these countries are always right, considering how the fascist countries in WW2 were first-world countries. The UN is the most authoritative body for international matters and should be respected as the instrument for achieving peace. Based on the number of civilians killed by Israel over many decades and its aggression towards neighbours, I don't see the condemnations as nonsense.

Didn't high-ranking Israeli figures use dehumanizing language about Palestinians, likening them to “animals” or worse, on multiple occasions? Even if the shoutings of 'death to America' and 'death to Israel' were to be taken literally, no one has the right to invade their countries based on some chants of anger triggered by attacks on them.

You called Russia, China, North Korea, and the others rogue nations too when they tried to possess nuclear weapons, but have they used them? The MAD theory goes: 'If you destroy me, I’ll destroy you — so let’s not destroy each other'.

>>> Calls for the Destruction of Gaza
> Defense Minister Yoav Gallant (Oct 2023):
“We will eliminate everything” in Gaza.
“No electricity, no food, no fuel... We are fighting human animals.”
— This was followed by a full siege and heavy bombardment.

> Heritage Minister Amihai Eliyahu (Nov 2023):
Suggested using a nuclear bomb on Gaza in a radio interview.
— Later suspended from cabinet meetings for the remark.

> Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich:
Repeatedly advocated for “erasing” Hamas-controlled areas of Gaza.

> Soldiers and Settlers
Videos have surfaced of Israeli soldiers and civilians chanting:
“May Gaza be erased!”
“Death to Arabs!”
“There are no innocents in Gaza.”

These chants have appeared during right-wing rallies or during military operations.

Reports have been coming in that some families of high ranking Iranian officials decided to go for "holidays" to Russia. In not too distant future the more precise duration of this "well deserved holidays" shall be revealed.

It was never about getting a deal on this or that. Israel wants a regime change in Iran and this is the whole point. They won't stop until that happens and the US (CIA) will use everything in their power to make this a reality. This is why Israel has killed leaders that want to fight against Israel and have left those who don't alive. Regime change... as it was always the case.

Or one tweet says they are looking to make a deal, and oil and gold crash. Don’t be too sure what will happen based on idle threats.
