The Iran Ceasefire Talks Have Imploded

Operation Epic Fury will continue, as the Iranians have rejected all US demands, even refusing to meet with Trump officials in Islamabad. This conflicts with Trump's claims that the supposedly new regime is more transparent and open to a deal. The Iranian government is the world’s largest state sponsor of terrorism. You can’t trust them. The Obama team did, and they got played like a fiddle. For now, the ceasefire talks have collapsed (via WSJ):

The current round of efforts by regional countries led by Pakistan to reach a cease-fire between the U.S. and Iran has reached a dead end, mediators said Friday.

Iran has officially told the mediators it isn’t willing to meet U.S. officials in Islamabad in the coming days and that U.S. demands are unacceptable, the mediators said. 

Turkey and Egypt are still pushing to find a way forward and are considering new venues for the talks, including the Qatari capital Doha, or Istanbul, along with fresh proposals to overcome the deadlock, the mediators said. 

President Trump said earlier this week on social media that Iran had asked for a cease-fire. Iran denied that, and people familiar with the matter said instead that Trump had signaled he was open to a cease-fire if Iran reopened the Strait of Hormuz. 

Early on in the latest round of diplomatic efforts, Iran said it would only end the war if the U.S. paid reparations, withdrew from Middle East bases, and could be guaranteed not to attack again, among other demands, the mediators said earlier.

Keep bombing them. Keep killing them. Also, Tehran’s demands were insane—what else is new—and that’s the point. They’re hoping for a ground war, in which case we’ll still kick their candy a**es all over the place.
