Iran to clear Hormuz mines, orders ships to designated routes amid security concerns: report

Iran's Supreme National Security Council said Thursday that traffic through the Strait of Hormuz will increase gradually, according to reports.

In a statement, the council said vessels must transit the waterway at designated times and along assigned routes due to ongoing security concerns.

Mine-clearing operations will be carried out under the new Islamabad MOU, according to the council.

It also said it will not charge fees for ships seeking passage through the strait, The Associated Press reported.

Technical details governing passage through the Strait of Hormuz will be announced by the Persian Gulf Strait Authority, the statement said.

Iranian Parliament Speaker and lead negotiator said Thursday that Tehran would closely follow Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei’s guidance in implementing the new U.S.-Iran agreement.

Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf also warned of a strong response to any violations of the memorandum of understanding (MOU).

“We are at your command; the task assigned to us by the Supreme Leader is to pursue the realization of the conditions and clauses of the agreement,” Ghalibaf said in a post shared on X.

“In the event of bad faith, breach of contract, and excessive demands by the opposing side, we have no hesitation in delivering a crushing response to the enemy,” he added, saying that the United States was “once slapped during the war.”

“If they wish to tread that path again, they will receive an even harder slap,” Ghalibaf added.

Iran to invite UN watchdog to inspect nuclear sites, Witkoff tells Congress: report

Iran is set to invite the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to inspect its nuclear sites and help identify and uncover Tehran’s enriched material, White House Special Envoy Steve Witkoff told lawmakers Thursday, according to reports.

Citing a source, The Associated Press reported that Witkoff told congressional leaders and members of national security-related committees that a side letter to the memorandum of understanding had been drafted between Tehran and the IAEA extending the invitation.

Witkoff disclosed the existence of the letter and invitation during the briefing, the outlet reported.

Witkoff said the letter to IAEA Director General Rafael Mariano Grossi would allow him to bring U.S. nuclear inspectors to Tehran.

Mojtaba Khamenei: Trump pushed for MoU 'out of desperation,' Iran will not submit to US demands

Khamenei said that he eventually approved the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) based only on a series of promises from Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian and the negotiating team.

🚨 NOW: Sen. Bernie Moreno goes full AMERICA FIRST MODE on President Trump's Iran deal, saying 47 RAN ON "no more forever wars" and that's EXACTLY what happened

"Trump isn't interested in an endless war, neither are the American people! What we're allowing them to do now is sell their oil. What's that going to do? It's going to benefit Americans. It's going to drive oil prices down."

"And make China pay more for oil! And also find out who are the people that are buying Chinese oil. So it sets us up in a great position, a great negotiation."

"And ultimately, I trust President Trump to make the right decisions."
@berniemoreno
 

If Iran disobeys, FAFO IS WAITING!

Trump is a fool to believe this stuff. He could have won the game. He could have been victorious. But, he was too emotionally fixated and obsessed with his retarded "deal" which is really nothing at all.


Trump wants the deal. Trump needs his precious deal. Must have the deal and Sméagol will swear on the Precious Deal.
Please define what "winning the game" means?  And what is victorious?  How many service men and women would you sacrifice to "win the game"?

Top Senate Republican rips into Trump's Iran deal, says $300 billion makes Obama deal look like 'a pittance'
Roger Wicker said Trump's Iran deal 'negotiates away the victories of Operation Epic Fury'
By Alex Miller Fox News
Published June 18, 2026 1:09pm EDT

Republicans aren’t taking President Donald Trump's deal with Iran well.

While Congress has still not received the actual memorandum of understanding (MOU) signed by Trump and Iranian officials, lawmakers have seen the reports circulating in the media.

And one of the top Republicans in the Senate warned that while he supported the war’s initial objectives, he feared that the current agreement would undermine those same objectives.

Senate Armed Services Committee Chair Roger Wicker, R-Miss., shredded the MOU in a statement on Thursday, in which he cautioned that the agreement "negotiates away the victories of Operation Epic Fury in ways that are completely out of step with the president's goals."

"Specifically, the $300 billion fund for the reconstruction and economic development of Iran — though not funded by U.S. taxpayers — would make Iran's payoff under President Obama's 2015 deal look like a pittance by comparison," Wicker said.

The proposed $300 billion fund has given Republicans heartburn as details have emerged in recent days, with some comparing it to the billions that flowed to Iran under former President Joe Biden.

The agreement stipulates that the U.S. would coordinate with regional partners to develop the fund, which would be finalized as part of the 60-day deal.

How many here think this deal will even be consummated?  This whole thing is not over by a long shot.  I still think Trump ended it due to pressure from his party who want to be reelected.  It's all politics...

Politics enters into it, but I think that there are other major reasons and concerns as to why Trump halted the bombings and agreed to such a one-sided deal.

Look, the entire truth is never going to be revealed, at least not at this time.  Possibly down the road we'll find out.

Trump Escalates Pressure on Israel To Exit Lebanon, Raises Threat of Arms Embargo

https://www.theyeshivaworld.com/news/israel-news/2564013/trump-escalates-pressure-on-israel-to-exit-lebanon-raises-threat-of-arms-restrictions.html

Quote
A much deeper crisis appears to be taking shape behind the public clash between President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, with Israeli officials saying that Trump’s pressure for a withdrawal from southern Lebanon and the Syrian Hermon is far from over and is expected to intensify as the anticipated signing of the memorandum of understanding with Iran approaches on Friday, Maariv reported on Thursday.

Israeli officials told Maariv that Trump’s demands are not merely theoretical and that issues concerning Lebanon, Syria, and the Syrian Hermon were raised in recent discussions with Netanyahu, adding that the prime minister made it clear that Israel will not agree to withdrawing from its security positions in the north. A senior Israeli official told Reuters that Israel is carrying out “stubborn negotiations” with the US on maintaining its military presence in southern Lebanon and has no intention of backing down.

The officials warned that the messages coming from Washington are no longer limited to difficult discussions. The US is signaling that if Israel continues to insist on its position, it will consider practical measures, ranging from delays in weapons shipments to restrictions on operational assistance, and even more severe steps that could potentially amount to a de facto arms embargo.

EXCERPT

Who didn't see that coming? 

If only Trump had twisted the Iranians' arms as hard as he is the Israelis'...

The most interesting point of Trump's Crusade, is that he was insanely crazy for a 'deal'. OK ... i guess?
He got his stupid deal which nobody believes in except him. So now, with his obsessive 'deal' in the past ...
Now he is more dangerous than ever. In his OCD mind he can now check the "got a deal" checkmark.

With that checkmark filled ... good God. He can do anything now. I would not want to be Iran right now.
Trump is pissed off and he has a Green Flag in his own mind.

??? Then we should have never gone in, in the first place
Forgotten is that Iran made the initial move 47 years ago when they invaded our soil.

They are considerably weakened and our alliance with other ME countries is strengthened.

FACT CHECKING JD VANCE:

JD Vance accused Israeli cabinet members of personally attacking President Trump and warned them to be careful, telling them that Israel relies heavily on American military support.

I went looking for the alleged ‘personal attacks’ on President Trump:

National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir said Israel “is not a banana republic” and that the agreement “does not bind us in any way.”

Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich called the deal “bad for Israel and for the entire free world” and warned Israel may have to continue confronting Iran alone.

Defense Minister Israel Katz stated that Israeli forces would remain in southern Lebanon, Syria, and Gaza.

I could not find any cabinet minister personally attacking President Trump.

JD appears to have just made that up.

I'd like to see an example of that.

If you'd like to know the disrespect thrown at the US from the Netanyahu/Likud branch of Israel, read the Israeli press and then take a peek at the international press. You'll get chapter and verse from these sources.

So you don't have an example.  Got it.

U.S. Vice President JD Vance cancels his trip to Switzerland, spokesman tells CNN.

"As the Vice President said at his press conference, the plans for the upcoming technical talks have not been finalized, and the U.S. delegation has been prepared to depart at the first available opportunity. But the logistics of these negotiations have never been simple or predictable. As of now the Vice President is not departing tonight. We will let you know as soon as we have a concrete update about next steps."

Again? 

Yes, again.  Don't you remember the swarm of political and media locusts that invaded in 2015 with one message:  stop Obama's bad deal with Iran? 

The troops finally had to send in the leader of the pack (aka Bibi) to stand in the well of America's seat of government to plead with all nationally elected officials to break with the sitting US president and send the then president's deal to the dustbin of history.  If memory serves, the efforts failed.

Well, 11 years later another deal Netanyahu doesn't like has arrived ---- and according to the Times of Israel, it looks like the old gang of locusts is ready to roll, again.

.  Hezbollah continues to target Israel.  Yet no lecture from Trump.

Trump's trying to cool things down, not incite more fighting.

Consider that Hezbollah is goading Israel to march deeper into Lebanon, destroy more cities and kill more citizens.   Is it possible the mullahs do understand that the their glory days are over with this agreement and want Israel to blow it up?

We may finally find out just how badly Netanyahu wants and needs a hot war.

What if Hezbollah simply wants to kill Jews?

Understand their glory days are over?  Are you on crack?  Seriously.  This is a decisive victory for them.  They get all their money plus another $300 billion on top of that, and they give up nothing.  Not a damn thing.  And you seriously believe they want Israel to blow that up?  Besides, if they really believed this agreement took away their glory days, they wouldn't have signed it.  But they did sign it.  Why?  Because they give up nothing and get everything.


We may finally find out just how badly Netanyahu wants and needs a hot war.

You are pathetic.  But if you really want Bibi to stop fighting, then stop attacking Israel.  It is really that simple.

When was the last time a US President gave a speech in the Knesset imploring the MKs to vote down the Prime Minister's war plans and instead accept the terms for peace and security in a signed MOU?

To keep a war going for 59 consecutive years, both sides have to want it.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
