Israel Destroyed the Peace Deal
The Iran peace deal collapsed after Israel pushed three new demands that make any agreement impossible, bad news for anyone hoping the war ends soon.
- Talks were 95% done until Trump spoke with Netanyahu and then added three new conditions.
- Iran is now told to hand over its enriched uranium on day one, even though most of it is buried under bombed facilities and could take months to recover.
- Israel wants to keep attacking Lebanon even after a ceasefire, meaning the truce only applies to one side.
- Every Middle East country would have to sign the Abraham Accords, dropping any path to a Palestinian state.
- US cable news is ignoring Israel's past ceasefire violations in Lebanon and framing the new demands as normal.
Outlook: The deal is dead for now, and the fighting is likely to keep going.
