This "negotiation" is a farce to try to confuse the enemy until then.
I dont think its gonna work this time, the soft liberals are dead or learned their lesson, no one is buying it.
People were wondering if Iran even tried to fire missiles at a carrier.

Well they did.

Damn they fired like 4-6 missiles, not 100. I wish they had sent 100
Also notice how theres ZERO mention of ehat Israel will have to give up / offer? If iran even entertains these without demanding Israeli concessions/ sanctions then they truly deserve what comes to them 5 years down the line. I say this as an Iranian.
Israel give something up??? Lmao , israel in history hasnt given anything up,

Well after the ceasefire attack in iraq, Iraq government has said this

This article citing NYT is basically saying US and Israel thought it would be a quick victory, that Mossad sponsoring a mass uprising plus strike decapitation on leadership will lead to regime change without needing ground component. Boy are they wrong. Ironically, it has given fuel to radical hard-liners and nobody is outside protesting when missiles as flying everywhere. Hormuz straits closed, and more missile strikes are not motivating Iranians towards an unequal treaty or mass uprising.

The article also says Israel is bullish on a ground component, and on other hand says Trump can call off the war at anytime he pleases if Mossad fails it's regime change objectives. Based on this article, my personal informed opinion is, there will be a ground component, and Trump will seize an random island, declare victory, then return random island after declaring he won some major concessions, and ending the war early. Escalate to deescalate.

I must point out that this is a rate of 20 per month or 240 per year.

In comparison, in Ukraine Russia lost around 240 planes since 2022.

Iran is in a stronger position than US; US is far from achieving any main objectives.. Iran can give up their nuclear reactors and enrichment materials but they won't give up their ballistic missile program, SOH toll, and allies. The 100 billion reparation is 50/50%. The SOH toll booth can generate enough profit for the rebuilding.

or Iran could share the SOH with US, and also have US pay some war reparation.
This is something that dude bros like Hegseth doesn’t understand — war is not about who kills more guys than the others. It’s about achieving the objectives. Iran doesn’t need to beat the Americans and Israelis, which is a tall order. All it really needs to do is not lose.

And keep sanctioning US and all of europe, which is what closing hormuz is,
Uno reverse sanctions!

Iranian tv irib
Iran/IRGC has proposed a 'regional security system' with gulfs-saudis-pakistan and Iraq, excluding US-israel influence.

Also, they quoted a source saying IRGC have acquired almost 'intact' 'Sky shield' and 'X-guard' pods
Apparently Israeli f15s uses Skyshield pods.

meanwhile A hotel housing us-nato officers in Erbil iraq was drone hit.

Among the lingering concerns: there isn’t enough current test data to assess the carrier’s “operational suitability,” or the reliability of several key systems, including its jet launch and recovery system, its radar, its ability to keep operating if hit by enemy fire and its elevators for moving weapons and munitions for warplanes from the hold to the flight deck.

The Pentagon’s test office said “insufficient data are available at this time” — nine years after the ship was delivered — “to determine the Ford-class’s operational effectiveness,” due to incomplete realistic combat testing.
That means it’s not clear how well the Ford — and other ships in its class, which have yet to be delivered — can detect, track or intercept enemy aircraft, anti-ship missiles or small attack aircraft. It’s also unclear how the aircraft carrier’s systems would perform under the wartime strain of continuous takeoffs and landings.

Anyone gonna get arrested for negligence?
