In reply to Lois Price. Yeah, exactly — piling Lebanon onto an already tense US-Iran standoff feels like a recipe for disaster. Even if the report is only partly right, the timing is awful and one bad strike could spiral fast.

In reply to Barb E. Cue. Yeah, that’s the part that keeps me up too. Everyone talks like it’s just a bargaining chip until a tanker gets hit and suddenly half the planet is paying more at the pump. Real genius stuff from all sides.

No deal is going to happen if both sides keep acting like the other one is lying every five minutes. Maybe they should stop with the macho talk and actually negotiate.

If this report is accurate then Israel expanding operations in Lebanon at the same time just makes everything way more dangerous One spark and the whole region goes up

This whole thing feels like another round of speeches and threats while regular people in Iran, Lebanon, and Israel keep paying the price… Sad and exhausting…

In reply to KennithWyman1954. Not shocking at all. Trump always negotiates like he’s trying to win a TV segment, not solve a real crisis. But Iran demanding rights and guarantees makes sense too — neither side trusts the other, and that’s the whole problem here.

Meanwhile the Strait of Hormuz is basically one bad decision away from wrecking global oil prices again. Great work from everybody involved, as usual. — signed, a mildly stressed observer

Trump making the terms tougher is not surprising at all. He always wants the deal to sound like a win for him personally, y’know?
