A Battered Iran Signals It Wants to De-Escalate Hostilities With Israel and Negotiate​

6/16/25

"Iran has been urgently signaling that it seeks an end to hostilities and resumption of talks over its nuclear programs, sending messages to Israel and the U.S. via Arab intermediaries, Middle Eastern and European officials said.

In the midst of a ferocious Israeli air campaign, Tehran has told Arab officials it would be open to returning to the negotiating table as long as the U.S. doesn’t join the attack, the officials said. Iran also passed messages to Israel saying it is in the interest of both sides to keep the violence contained.

But with Israeli warplanes able to fly freely over the capital and Iranian counterattacks inflicting minimal damage, Israeli leaders have little incentive to halt their assault before doing more to destroy Iran’s nuclear sites and further weaken the theocratic government’s hold on power."

No negotiations until all the nuclear sites are either destroyed or buried.

The Oil Price Spike That Wasn’t​

Global production is well placed to cope with Iranian disruption.​

6/16/25

"The big news in oil markets since Israel’s attack on Iran’s nuclear program is the price spike that wasn’t. Brent crude popped from $66 a barrel or so to a high of $78 last week, but by Monday it was back below $73. The non-panic owes to ample global supply, and it’s a lesson for Congress and the Trump Administration as they contemplate putting new sanctions on Russian oil exports.

Wars are unpredictable, and an Iranian attack on Saudi oil fields or shutting down the Strait of Hormuz is possible. Iran has made so many self-damaging mistakes leading up to this war that another can’t be ruled out.

But global oil production is in reasonable shape to cope with anything short of catastrophic disruption. Saudi Arabia has been producing more, as have Guyana, Brazil and Canada. U.S. production hit a record 13.5 million barrels a day in March. A sustained price of $70 or above would be welcomed by U.S. frackers, some of which have been taking rigs offline as prices slipped toward $60."

not what i heard. could just be propaganda like the other article.

i only watched one video today i had to do a field trip. it was scott ritter. he said iran is doing good but idk how current the record was, it was recorded a few hours before i watched it on the former fox news judge channel. he said iran was using older weapons so far and theyre still getting through.

They aren't looking to occupy Iran. Understand this...with complete control of Iran's airspace Israel could destroy Iran's oil fields and its ports. That would completely cripple Iran. Israel isn't doing that. They are attacking the nuclear weapon development sites. Iran could end this immediately by agreeing to stop it's nuclear program and allow close U.N. monitoring. But since they've violated past agreements it's likely Israel won't stop until all nuclear facilities are destroyed.
