Israel and Iran

They screwed up the call sign, lol
Trump says he'll give a two week ceasefire if the Strait is opened.
I've yet to see anything saying the Iranians (or Israelis*) have agreed to this, so we'll see how it goes!
*I imagine any ceasefire would need to include them as well.

I'd like to be optimistic for this one. Fingers crossed while hoping for the best but expecting the worst.

A Pakistani proposal for a ceasefire with Iran. ...some of my favorite, most trustworthy people on the planet.

Maybe he's referring to France.
Did you see the supposed "10 point peace plan" from Iran? How is any of that even a starting point? Are we wanting to just keep living in the same loop that the Israelis are in with Hamas?
And I checked, it's no longer April Fools day.

So the point of the war was what again? Regime change didn’t exactly happen, their nuclear program had already been destroyed, so it wasn’t that, the straight was open before, so did we fight a war and reach a ceasefire to get back to the status quo? What are we even negotiating? I don’t even know what the aim is.
I love the idea of almost everything that we did, but this was so disjointed, and the messaging so terrible that even someone who would support action in Iran, me, is left confused by the point of this.
If it is to maintain our control over oil trade, and the petrodollar just say so. I honestly believe Trump got conned into going to war for Israel, and now that Americans are deeply unhappy with it, he wants a quick end. I’m just grossed out by the situation, because it had such promise.
It's actually a flawless, seven step plan.
1. Bomb country for already destroyed nuclear program
2. Kill their leaders, creating more entrenched hardliners to replace them
3. Burn through our own weapons and ADA stockpiles
4. Remove sanctions on Russian and Iranian oil
5. Allow a toll booth on the Strait, paid in Yuan, to challenge the petrodollar
6. ?????????
7. Profit

I doubt Iran gets even half of the things on the list, but still, it's crazy.
