Tehran

If Tehran emerges from this crisis with greater leverage than it possessed before, the lesson will not be that aggression fails.

Israel may not get all it wanted from the war or upcoming talks, but as in 2015, it can turn disappointment into strategic gain again.

The greatest strength of the US-Israel relationship has always been that it united two independent democracies pursuing common objectives while retaining the freedom to protect their own interests.

Tehran extended an invitation to IAEA Director-General Rafael Mariano Grossi and would allow him to bring “US nuclear inspectors” to Iran, US envoy Steve Witkoff told US officials.

Bibi has put Israel in a weak position with little choice but to follow Trump’s lead. 

Khomeini advised that to maintain victory, Iranians “must stay away from pointless disputes, disputes that are the product of ego and self-centeredness.”

Yasmin Sayeh, an Iranian-Israeli strategic analyst who marched for a free Iran calls the new US-Iran deal "probably the worst deal ever."

Questions remain over a US-Iran preliminary deal as Tehran favors a prolonged diplomatic process that adds complexity and delay.

Iran will soon begin implementing a long-planned electricity grid connection with Qatar, Energy Minister Abbas Aliabadi said, adding that Tehran is also studying similar links with other Gulf states.

For Israel, the success of any US-Iran deal will be measured not by headlines or market reactions, but by whether Tehran’s ability to threaten its neighbors is reduced.
