Why is Trump so desperate for an agreement knowing the Iranian signatories will laugh as they tear it up?

Perhaps, to capture the "Moral High Ground" after they renege. He only needs another week to destroy their infrastructure.   :shrug:

Islamic Guard takes full control of Iran, sidelines moderates: analysts

Ronny Reyes  |  April 19, 2026  |  7:24 p.m. ET


Iran’s hardline Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps leader has effectively taken control of Tehran’s military and negotiation team over the weekend, analysts said.

IRGC commander Maj. Gen. Ahmad Vahidi and members of his inner circle have allegedly taken charge of the Islamic Republic, as evident by Iran’s attacks on ships trying to sail through the Strait of Hormuz and Tehran’s refusal to join peace talks with the US this week, the Washington-based Institute for the Study of War (ISW) think tank said.

The sudden hardline shift also shows that more moderate members of Iran’s leadership, including Foreign Affairs Minister Abbas Araghchi, have been sidelined.

Araghchi had initially agreed to open the Strait of Hormuz over the weekend after reaching a consensus with the Trump administration, but the IRGC demanded it remain shut in the face of the American blockade on Iranian ports.  .  .

Trump is proving to the world that Bibi has been right for the last four decades.

Are you saying that Bibi's been fighting for a peace agreement with Iran for 40 years??

Not at all.  I'm saying that Bibi has been pointing out for 40 years that islamists always - ALWAYS - exhibit bad faith and cannot be trusted in any negotiation.

According to you, Trump is going to squander his international prestige, treasury, and military assets to prove Bibi was right.

Over 40 years ago, Trump talked about the dangers of Khomeini, the need to bomb the IRGC and securing the Persian Gulf for trade.

Do people seriously think Israel has controlled the man for four decades?

President Trump:

The Democrats are doing everything possible to hurt the very strong position we are in with respect to Iran.

Despite World War I lasting 4 years, 3 months, and 14 days, World War II lasting 6 years and 1 day, the Korean War lasting 3 years, 1 month, and 2 days, the Vietnam War lasting 19 years, 5 months, and 29 days, and Iraq lasting 8 years, 8 months, and 28 days, they like to say that I promised 6 weeks to defeat Iran, and actually, from the Military standpoint, it was far faster than that, but I’m not going to let them rush the United States into making a Deal that is not as good as it could have been.

I read the Fake News saying that I am under “pressure” to make a Deal. THIS IS NOT TRUE! I am under no pressure whatsoever, although, it will all happen, relatively quickly! Time is not my adversary, the only thing that matters is that we finally, after 47 years, straighten out the MESS that other Presidents let happen because they didn’t have the Courage or Foresight to do what had to be done with respect to Iran.

We’re in it, and it will be done RIGHT, and we won’t let the Weak and Pathetic Democrats, TRAITORS ALL, who for years have been talking about the Dangers of Iran, and that something has to be done, but now, since I’m the one doing it, belittle the accomplishments of our Military and the Trump Administration.

This is being perfectly executed, on the scale of Venezuela, just a bigger, more complex operation. The result will be the same. In my First Term, I built the Greatest Military our Country has ever seen, including adding Space Force. In my Second Term, I am properly and judiciously using our Military to solve problems left to us by others of far less understanding or competence. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

If Iran sends people who can't back up their promises, bombing starts tomorrow.  This is just another stalling tactic to give Democrats time to stop Trump.  I don't think the Democrats can stop Trump!

As long as Vance is over there, do you really believe that they'll start bombing???  I would hope not.  Vance need to be securely back in the U.S.

"Trump demanded that the military go get the downed aviators immediately. But the U.S. needed to figure out how to get into treacherous Iranian terrain and avoid Tehran’s own military.

"Aides kept the president out of the room as they got minute-by-minute updates because they believed his impatience wouldn’t be helpful, instead updating him at meaningful moments"

Hmmm...wondering if attendance is mandatory.  /s   :whistle:

Hezbollah broke the ceasefire before the ink was dry on the agreement (as everybody knew they would).  I hope Israel pounds them into paste!

Iranian citizen extradited from Panama to U.S. on indictment in Seattle

“The members of this conspiracy thought they could evade export restrictions by shipping goods through a third country – in this case China,” said First Assistant U.S. Attorney Neil Floyd. “But law enforcement uncovered the scheme, and the grand jury returned the indictment leading to the appearance today.”

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

US Navy continues Red Sea flight operations, CENTCOM says


https://twitter.com/CENTCOM/status/2046276760174481746

The U.S. Navy is continuing operations in the Middle East, U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) said Monday.

“U.S. Navy sailors were flying and handling aircraft on the USS Gerald R. Ford in the Red Sea as part of a larger naval group working in the Middle East region,” the command said in a post shared on X.

The carrier and its accompanying ships are operating in the region amid ongoing tensions with Iran in the region.

Bobfrom wrote in reply 3273 above:
"That's why they have heavy earth moving equipment in the tunnels - they are not stupid and have been preparing for just this possibility for 47 years, so they can dig out, as the surface teams dig down. The only egress they need is for launching missiles and drones from within a particular section of a tunnel in a complex of tunnels in one region of the installation, covering many square miles."

There's one way -- and ONLY one way -- to completely neutralize these tunnels and the stuff that's in them.

You know what that is.

Well, I reckon there's another "way":
A full scale ground invasion and assault on iran.
But I'll predict casualties of between 15,000 - 25,000 USA troops, or even more.
It's not going to be a ground war won easily before the other side collapses.

So again... we ALL know what "the answer" is.
Or... should be.
