Iran demands to end the war

Except we aren't. Literally nothing has changed and Trump is trying to get out of his quagmire but Iran won't let him.

Nuke dust still in Iran
Nuke knowledge still in Iran.
Regime (like Venezuela) is still in charge.
Civilian populaiton still being oppressed.
Iran still chanting death to America.
I agree that the job is not finished yet
 
Of course Frank means that my comment is dreadful

But in fact its spot on
How do you see us winning a “shooting war” against a massive country in Asia, especially the one who supplied most of the high tech equipment vital to Bibi’s American War Machine?
 
For there to be lasting peace as Trump said he believes he’s achieved, we have to resolve:

Iran wants:
US out of the Middle East
Release frozen assets
No US bases in the GCC
No more serving as Bibi’s cannon fodder

Israel wants
Hegemony over the Middle East

What am I missing?

How is this supposed to work?
 
Please document your evidence, if any.
ok
Issuing an "ultimatum" before launching a "surprise" attack?
Trump said no nukes ever, period. Now the new "memo" says no nukes for 20-years.
Your "surprise attack" complaint against terrorists who ALWAYS do surprise attacks is hilarious.
Most Americans recognize that Trump's Middle East caprice is unnecessary.
So you/they are okay with Iran having nukes and ICBMs?
Your citing the fraudulently-predicated Iraq quagmire is not serious, is it?
Did we take out Saddam Hussein and his criminal regime, yes or no?
You prefer Saddam and his vicious larvae still in control of Iraq?
Trump miscalculated badly, and bungled the caper. His exorbitant "little excursion" failed to anticipate Iran's using the Strait of Hormuz to wreak havoc with the global economy.
Oh stop whining about the price of gas already.
Its still lower than the $5 high under Biden and his "war on energy" and "green new deal" capers.
Trump's blockade of Iran's oil has them over a barrel.

Simple. You do what was said, and you live.

China is not a supplier of IDF weapons

We win a shooting war if china fails to take Taiwan and thereby total control of the South China Sea
 
Please elaborate
America more or less accept defeat and, step by step, leave Middle East. Israel, after Bibi get rotten in prison, became more or less Russian asset (there are a lot of Russian speakers and citizens of the Russian Federation). No big war. Russia and China settle all contraditions more or less peacefully. Petro-yuan system to control oil and "Gas OPEC" (Russia, Iran, Algeria, and Kuwait) to control 80% of gas.
America suffer some economic problems, but melting fat into brains and muscles and have may be forty years of peace to do any reforms they want and still is one of the world's leaders.
 
Key Iranian Demands and Positions:

  • Security Guarantees: A primary demand is a guarantee against further aggression, including ensuring the war does not resume.

  • Regional Withdrawal: A key demand includes the withdrawal of U.S. military forces from the region.
  • Protection of Allies: Ending Israeli strikes against Hezbollah in Lebanon is included in the reported 10-point proposal.

Seems that in spite of our Presidents claims that we are close to an agreement with Iran to end hostilities, we are not even close.

Trump has started a war that he doesn’t know how to get out of

Most of those are non starters

“Iran retains 70 per cent of its pre-war missile stockpile despite US-Israeli strikes, according to the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).

Tehran has also reopened most of its underground storage facilities, repaired damaged missiles, and even assembled new missiles, The Washington Post reported, citing analysis by the agency.”

“In addition, the CIA analysis said Iran retains about 75 per cent of pre-war inventories of mobile launchers used to fire the missiles.”

“Donald Trump claimed in the Oval Office on Tuesday that Iran’s “missiles are mostly decimated, they have probably 18, 19 per cent, but not a lot by comparison to what they had”.
