Iran To Give US, Israel Another Chance...
Let's see how long the United States & Israel can go without attacking Iran, Lebanon, Gaza and any other participants in the Axis of Resistance...
About The "Ceasefire."
Do we really have peace? Did The White House truly accept Iran's 10-Point Plan ? What about Israel? Here's Nima's take: And Laith Marouf visits Dialogue Works to share how the events impact Lebanon: Also, Rachel Blevins and Brian Berletic cover some of the details of the "deal" as well it's authenticity: So Israel considers their conflict with Hezbollah in Lebanon (who is part of the Axis of Resistance) is separate from their conflict with Iran. Unless this issue is managed, this could be a crisis point that causes the United States and Iran to resume their war.

Then, with the double-dose of "success" in Venezuela and pressure connected to the Epstein Files (and apparently with the lessons of the 12-Day War forgotten), President Trump decided to have the US team up with Israel and attack Iran. And now?
Intelligence And Ideology Are Like Oil & Water
As Dialogue Works' guest explains, intelligence must be as objective as possible to get the most honest assessment. If your data-gathers and analyzers can't separate their biases from their work, the findings will always be skewed (comments start around 10-minute mark):
Richard Medhurst Returns To Talk About Iran.
Unless you like the intro music, you can start around the 25-minute mark. Either way, Medhurst has a good 3 & 1/2 hours of news, updates, video clips and commentary to share:
As The World Burns...Err, Turns.
Poland kinda-sorta enters the Russia-Ukraine war . Israel goes after Yemen for not liking what's going on in Gaza. French protestors have decided to " block everything ." Nepal citizens continue to protest their government's ban on social media (or so we're being led to believe).
