According to sources, Iran rejected various aspects of the U.S. proposal.

Proposal doesn’t include details on nuclear program.

— 🇮🇱 It’s now 2026, a reality check for Israel after 3 years of war:

🇵🇸 Gaza front:

– Hamas has not been disarmed after almost three years of war.

– Tunnel infrastructure in Gaza is intact, rocket arrays being slowly rebuilt.

– Al-Qassam has approximately 25,000 fighters, the same amount as before Oct 7th.

– No sign of an interim government, Hamas is still politically in control of Gaza.

🇱🇧 Lebanon front:

– Hezbollah has not been disarmed, neither North nor South of the Litani.

– Hezbollah’s leadership has successfully reorganized and decentralized, and is now more resistant to assassination strikes than before.

– Hezbollah retains the capability to launch long-range and medium-range rockets, drones and missiles into Israel.

– The increasing use of FPV drones has rendered northern Israeli settlements into ghost towns, and significantly degraded the IDF’s freedom of movement in southern Lebanon.

🇮🇷 Iran front:

– The Islamic Republic is still firmly in power, and perhaps even more entrenched than before.

– Iran’s ballistic missile program, drone force, and conventional capabilities are almost entirely intact and capable of threatening Israel.

– Iran still possesses a large stockpile of highly-enriched uranium, nuclear breakout time is still at ~6 months to a year.

– The Strait of Hormuz is now under Iranian control.

– Most U.S. bases in the region have been rendered unusable and Israel’s Gulf allies are in the weakest position they’ve ever found themselves.

🇾🇪 Yemen front:

– Ansarallah (Houthis) still control the majority of Yemen.

– Houthis still possess hundreds of ballistic missiles and thousands of drones, capable of targeting Israel.

– The Bab Al-Mandab can be closed at any moment.

In strategic terms, Israel has achieved nothing in all these three years.

Except the destruction of Gaza’s civilian population and infrastructure.

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 Reporter: ‘Where are we in the war if we have not yet gotten the nuclear materials, the enriched uranium from them?’

President Trump: ‘Well, we'll get that at some point, whatever we want’

‘You know, I did a thing called Space Force—if somebody walked in, they can tell you his name, his address, the number of his badge. If anybody got near the place, we will know about it, and we'll blow them up’

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 President Trump: ‘I didn’t say the war in Iran is over. We got maybe 70%. We may have to go in there about two more weeks’

@Middle_East_Spectator

— 🇮🇱/🇮🇷 Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu:

‘The war with Iran is not over because there is still enriched uranium that has to be taken out of Iran.

There are still enrichment sites that need to be dismantled. There are still proxies that Iran supports and ballistic missiles that they want to produce.

We degraded a lot of it, but there is work to be done.’

Another Hezbollah video coming soon.

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 President Trump on Truth Social:

‘Iran has been playing games with the United States, and the rest of the World, for 47 years (DELAY, DELAY, DELAY!), and then finally hit "pay dirt" when Barack Hussein Obama became President.

He was not only good to them, he was great, actually going to their side, jettisoning Israel, and all other Allies, and giving Iran a major and very powerful new lease on life. Hundreds of Billions of Dollars, and 1.7 Billion Dollars in green cash, flown into Tehran, was handed to them on a silver platter.

Every Bank in D.C., Virginia, and Maryland was emptied out - It was so much money that when it arrived, the Iranian Thugs had no idea what to do with it. They had never seen money like this, and never will again. It was taken off the plane in suitcases and satchels, and the Iranians couldn't believe their luck.

They finally found the greatest SUCKER of them all, in the form of a weak and stupid American President. He was a disaster as our "Leader," but not as bad as Sleepy Joe Biden!

For 47 years the Iranians have been "tapping" us along, keeping us waiting, killing our people with their roadside bombs, destroying protests, and recently wiping out 42,000 innocent, unarmed protestors, and laughing at our now GREAT AGAIN Country. They will be laughing no longer!’

‘I have just read the response from Iran’s so-called ‘Representatives’.

I don’t like it — TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE!’

@Middle_East_SpectTor

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷 According to Iran’s semi-official Tasnim News Agency:

Iran’s response to the latest U.S. proposal emphasizes the following points:

– No handover of Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile to the U.S. or any other country.

– An immediate end to the war on all fronts, including Lebanon, and guarantees of no further aggression.

– The immediate lifting of the U.S. naval blockade.

– Gradual lifting of all U.S. sanctions against Iran.

– Specifically, sanctions on Iran’s oil exports must be lifted within 30-days of signing an MoU.

– Release of frozen Iranian funds within the 30-days period after signing MoU.

– Recognizing Iranian control of the Strait of Hormuz
