Michael Doran The Free Press, Apr. 22, 2025 “The stark truth is this: Khamenei’s red lines render Trump’s stated goal unreachable. Iran’s nuclear program has surged since the 2015 JCPOA, making true elimination through negotiations impossible.” The Iran Deal was one of the worst and most one-sided transactions the United States has ever entered into,” President Donald […]
Dan Perry The Hill, Apr. 22, 2025 “Rather than signaling a return to Obama-era frameworks or outsourcing military action to Israel, the United States should present Iran with an ultimatum: verifiable and irreversible total dismantling of its nuclear and weaponization programs — as well as an end to proxy militias which have sewn misery and […]
Seth J. Frantzman Jerusalem Post, Apr. 23, 2025 “… there had been widespread speculation about the outcome of the talks before they had even begun, but added that if they have managed to create a slight opening for diplomacy, the process could be deemed a success.” Clearly, he appears optimistic, which may also be reflected […]
Yonah Jeremy Bob Jerusalem Post, Apr. 23, 2025 “In order to be ready for a potentially broad military campaign with Iran, which could involve multiple rounds of exchanges of many hundreds of ballistic missiles more than before, top Israeli officials wanted to remove other threats from the board.” On April 13-14, 2024, Iran changed the […]

That Iran might use all of its proxies to respond to such an attack is indeed a risk. But what’s more likely is that so long as the strikes only target military and nuclear sites, Ayatollah Khamenei will not risk escalation.” — Mike Pompeo HIGH STAKES TALKS WATCH: Dr. Wurmser: Dissecting Trump’s Iran Strategy: Center […]

Mike Pompeo The Free Press, Apr. 18, 2025 “This “war or deal” narrative is being peddled by many of the “populist” Tucker Carlson-esque isolationists who have burrowed inside President Trump’s orbit. They repeat this mantra, exactly as President Barack Obama and Secretary John Kerry repeated endlessly—and wrongly.” In early April, President Trump reportedly “waved off” an Israeli […]
Jonathan S. Tobin JNS, Apr. 17, 2025 “… what would be the American goal in any negotiations with Iran? Should it be the complete elimination of Iran’s nuclear program or merely an effort to slow down or impose restrictions on the regime’s ability to refine uranium?” It’s too soon to declare the Trump administration’s policy […]
Kamran Bokhari Geopolitical Futures, Apr. 17, 2025 “Once Khamenei is out of the picture, the military – itself divided between the ideological Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and the more professional Artesh (regular armed forces) – will likely replace the clergy as the regime’s core.” The Trump administration’s diplomacy with Iran is about much more than […]
Laurence Norman WSJ, Apr. 19, 2025 “The critical gap in IAEA knowledge of Iran’s nuclear program is Iran’s inventory of centrifuges, machines that spin uranium into higher levels of enrichment.” President Trump is calling for Iran to “go fast” to secure a new nuclear accord. But for any deal to work, Tehran will have to account […]
