Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

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".

Europe, Russia, and China must get involved in the negotiations even without the US. These countries could present different ideas and Iran trusts them more.

Unless those groups agree to potentially face off directly with US and Israel military, there is relatively little they can do to change current US and Israel behavior.

One would think sanctions, but Trump has effectively been doing his best to self impose sanction-like results already.

Yes, Europe, China, and Russia will have to confront the US and Israel if Trump rejects the deal. That's the reason Europe, China, and Russia must unite to negotiate with Iran.
