Told @BBCWorld that progress appears to have been made in the talks, but it is still subject to Trump's self-sabotage. But one factor may help him muster much-needed discipline: It'll be embarrassing for him to show up in Beijing next week without having stabilized the situation

Told @AJE that the US's strategic defeat against Iran also raises questions about the sustainability of American primacy, not just in the Middle East, but globally. Iran has done to the US what Ukraine did to Russia.

An entirely new security equation will be needed after this war. Won't be easy. GCC dependency on the US is partly why they're in this dire situation. Finding a new relationship with Iran will be difficult, given Iran's attacks. But there is no other way: geography is permanent.

Tone always matters in diplomacy, particularly in sensitive phases such as the one the US & Iran find themselves in right now. Trump is usually his worst enemy when it comes to tone, but some of his latest tweets have shown unusual sensitivity to the need for a more respectful tone.

Joe Kent goes to the heart of the matter: Without addressing America's imbalanced relationship with Israel, the current war won't end and a deal with Tehran cannot be found. "The main issue is that the Israelis are out of control, and they are driving this entire war."

Disgraceful! The US/Israel just bombed Sharif University in Tehran. This is not only Iran's best university, but also a top 100 global university in the field of Civil Engineering. It has also been a center of student opposition to the Iranian gov And Trump just bombed it...

Told @chrislhayes that while the GCCC states are infuriated with Iran, their reliance on the American security umbrella has not granted them security, but rather made them the targets. As a result, after this war, they will likely rethink their complete reliance on the US.

Told @esaagar and @krystalball that Tehran may commit the same mistake as the US, overplay their hand, and seek Trump's humiliation. That would be a huge mistake. Both sides need to be able to put forward a credible narrative of victory in order to end this senseless war.

Part of my debate with Matt Kroenig as to whether Trump's Iran war is legitimate: KROENIG: "The US is being a responsible power following the law of armed conflict and only going after legitimate military targets." PARSI: “Does that include the girl's school in which 165 children were killed?”

Trump's blockade has already proven itself to be too expensive for both Iran and the US. But Iran has been under various forms of sanctions for 47 years. None of them has forced Iran to capitulate, and they have found ways to circumvent all of them.

I don't think we need to spend $200 billion on defense in order to meet the needs of our country, and I think it undercuts the ability to fund other things that are also important like Medicaid, education, and SNAP benefits.

I was doing studies of gender based play in children in the early 80s as part of my Psychology degree. Things were pretty much the same then. Disappointing that they don't seem to have changed much in 45 years.

Proverbs tells us to “speak up for those who can not speak for themselves.” Washington has forgotten those values. Today's leaders care more about scoring political points than caring for our neighbors. I’m running for the US Senate to restore a functional government and to bring people together.

This is basically the most accurate description of the right wing I've ever heard. And they let themselves be manipulated because they're more comfortable being triggered, and not realizing it, then actually considering the truth of what is occurring.

For all you, "It's just Netanyahu", "Israel is beautiful" types, YOU need to think & look into things before you reply. Obviously, not everyone in Israel is a murderous shitbag Zionist but like we, in the US have to do w/ our current regime, they have to do more to depose the Zionists in power.

WHEN EMPIRES DECLINE History teaches a clear lesson: declining empires rarely go quietly. When power begins to slip, nations often turn outward. Wars are launched to prove strength still exists. It's the old playground mentality: “We’re still the bully.”
