If you want escalation, surrender is what you should be looking for. That's why pro-Israeli voices are pushing for outlandish demands - because they know it will beget escalation and more war.

There is still an off-ramp available to Trump, but it will require a compromise, including sanctions relief for Iran. There are ways Trump can do this that will serve US interest. But if he goes in with ground troops, the opportunity will likely be lost.
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.
On @Bannons_WarRoom, I argued that on several variables, Trump can get a stronger Iran deal than Obama's. Particularly if he lifts primary sanctions and opens the Iranian market to American companies. For average Americans, this will matter more than nuclear details.
This video was apparently aired on Israeli TV. It shows Axis of Resistance leaders waiting in line to be killed by Israel. At the end, the camera zooms out and we see that the next leader waiting to be killed by Israel is Erdogan. Seems Israel is already planning the next war.
I was asked by @NewsNation about Merz's comments, and I told them that the Chancellor may have said it, but most world leaders think it. Because Trump didn't have a plan B, the war has created a mess, and other countries are suffering economically far more than the US is.
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.
Told @NewsNation that Trump always uses social media to mock his counterparts, as an effort to create the optics of dominance. But it's one thing to do trash talk in a negotiation, completely different when the US is in an actual war and diplomacy is needed to end that war...
Beyond shameful! Next time the German government lectures ANYONE about human rights, remember that in Germany, you get arrested if you peacefully hold up pictures of starving Palestinian children. This video is from Berlin.
Tara moved to Israel five years ago from Texas. Her message to the Palestinians living in Palestine is simple: 'Leave or we will kill you!' Perhaps this conflict isn't that complicated after all...
Young Palestinian children are prevented from going to school after Israeli settlers - with the tacit approval of the Israeli state - blocked their path with a barbed-wire fence. Instead, they are forced to sit in the boiling heat to continue their education.

It seems the French police have uncovered the most serious security threat in the country. A man in a wheelchair raises his voice for Palestine. All this mobilization and violence because someone decided to exercise their natural right to express their opinion.

Rev Broome is right: a budget the cuts $880 million from Medicaid would take healthcare from 36 million Americans. That’s not cutting waste. That’s an immoral assault on poor people.
