The rumor mill is churning again. Another "deal" with the shattered remnants of Iran's regime? It’s almost exhausting to keep track. But when a seasoned Israeli journalist cross-checks every report with senior officials, the whispers demand attention.
This time, the framework reportedly includes concessions that would make any Iran hawk choke on their coffee. The proposal is a disaster in the making—a half-measure that would betray the hard-won victory against a fanatical enemy.
Make no mistake: the so-called leaders still clinging to power in Tehran are lunatics. Their own allies call them "insane in the head." That’s generous. These are fanatical killers who cannot be trusted with a single concession.
The blockade must stay. Full commercial traffic through the Gulf should resume for every country except Iran. Every gram of highly enriched uranium—now buried under rubble after precision strikes—must be dug up and surrendered.
The missile and drone programs need strict caps on numbers and range, paired with a rigorous verification regime. The regime must flip the switch back on for its people—and cut off the money spigot to Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis.
These demands aren't extreme. They're bare minimum. But the fanatics in Iran, unless they're completely irrational, must see them as reasonable. President Trump has never been one to surrender leverage. He’s got it now in spades.
His envoys have walked away from bad deals before. They don't want their names on a second Munich Agreement. The President shouldn't risk a victory for the ages by letting Iran off the mat too soon.
I don’t believe a word of this rumored deal—but I worry about everything. Iran is cornered, desperate, and dangerous. Let’s hope this administration finishes off the radical pirate regime and seals a legacy of lasting stability in the Middle East.
