Donald Trump threatens to attack Iran “hard” tonight, hours after saying he thinks the US-Iran ceasefire is “over”. Trump earlier said of the Iranian leadership: “I don’t want to deal with them anymore, they’re scum. They’re sick people, they’re led by sick people”.

    No amount of negotiating will work because the rogue state of israel started this mess and is intent on keeping it going.

      Europe, China, and Russia are not as close to Israel as the US. They have less influence, but they can tell Iran they will cease any military business with Israel as part of a peace deal.

        The nuclear deal with Iran that Obama led fell apart when Trump reneged, even though Europe, China, and Russia were all part of the deal and still in. In this case, Israel will keep attacking and has kept attacking even when the US has signed a deal, and since this has been the main issue, there cannot possibly be any deal that works under these conditions. The US is the largest supporter of Israel, so they’d have to pull that support and sanction before Israel maybe stops, but even with dropped support and sanctions, Israel is a death cult and may turn to using nukes to keep going.

          Iran might be willing to accept a deal in which Europe, China, and Russia cease any military business with Israel.
