Source for this article is Israeli news. Sharing because this is the the complete opposite of what has been said to us by american media the last few hours while the markets get manipulated. We will find out in the coming hours/days but figured to share what this other side is reporting
US has been negotiating with Reza Pahlavi, is only explanation that would make both sides consistent.
Trump has criticized Reza. He wants a direct puppet
No need to try and figure out how to make both sides consistent when one side in particular is a habitual liar. (I’d argue Iran is more of a strategic liar - I don’t trust them inherently, but at this point I trust them hands down over Trump…)
