Israelis are working day and night to drag America into an endless war with Iran; a quagmire that no president, now or in the future, Republican or Democrat, could escape

Antisemitism is widespread everywhere. Sometimes it hides behind the language of anti-colonial liberation struggles or criticism of Israel. We, as a federal government, are doing and will continue to do everything in our power to protect the lives of Jews in our country and around the world. Within this commitment, we stand unreservedly with Israel. The existence of a state in the world in which Jews are not a vulnerable minority, a state in which they find refuge and protection when barbarism returns to dominate their homelands, is part of our historical responsibility. Historical responsibility means speaking out publicly against antisemitism and combating it wherever it appears. It also means showing concern for Israel's fate.

Iran wants to reach an agreement, but the problem lies in the ridiculous conditions it continues to put forward. It is not even serious. However, this situation may change.

The failure of American economic and military pressure and the divisions within Donald Trump's administration, along with regional countries' fears of continued closure of the Strait of Hormuz, strengthened the American failure to push Iran to make concessions.
