Remember how #Vance said he was in constant communication with #Trump?

Well, Trump was at a #UFC fight in Miami while #Iran talks collapsed.

On his way to Florida, Trump said it did not matter to him if a deal with Iran was reached or not: “We win, regardless,” he said.

Another complication:🚨"Iran has been unable to open the Strait of Hormuz to more shipping traffic because it cannot locate all of the mines it laid in the waterway and lacks the capability to remove them, according to US officials."

Democrats tried to reign in Trump's genocidal madness with a War Powers act. Republicans blocked it since of course they're apparently all for this chaos. But Dems have more coming . . .

As #Trump🚨renews his threats to bomb “the entire C” of Iran, he's using religious terms to justify the costly, unpopular #IranWar that's killed 1000s of ppl, claiming that “God wants to see ppl taken care of.”

And he calls the left deranged lunatics!

#Trump warns a 'whole civilization will die tonight' if a deal with #Iran isn't reached

Trump issued the stark threat Tuesday, about 12 hours ahead of his deadline for Iran to agree to a deal that includes reopening the #StraitOfHormuz or face punishing strikes.

Trita Parsi: 'Members of the Iranian Jewish community inspect what is left of their synagogue in Tehran after Israel bombed it. On Passover...'

Israeli Zionists bombing synagogues.

I was reluctant to post about it t this morning because a) it seemed too far fetched to be believed and b) it was poorly sourced news and there is too much disinfo already on social media.
– But it seems confirmed now.

Here it is,,, Iran's 10-point plan.*

Not an easy *complete* list to find on the Internet! The NY Times refers to it but never lists it in its entirety, and other USA MSM follow in a similar way.

I don't really know 'The Kobeissi Letter' well but their tw/x post seems plausible.

*if anyone find a better source of the complete 10 point list, please post it here.

“We have a plan, because of the power of our military, where every #bridge in Iran will be decimated by 12 o’clock tomorrow night,” #Trump said during his Monday news conference.

#PowerPlants in #Iran, he continued would be “burning, exploding & never to be used again.”

Trump refused to say whether any #civilian targets would be off limits in the #US response.

#Trump says he’s “not at all” concerned about committing #WarCrimes as he continues to threaten destruction of Iran’s #bridges & #PowerPlants if they don’t meet a Tuesday-evening deadline to reopen the #StraitOfHormuz.

“I hope I don’t have to do it,” Trump added.

#UN Secretary-General #AntonioGuterres warned the #US that attacking #civilian #infrastructure is banned under #InternationalLaw, his spox said Monday.

“Even if specific civilian infrastructure were to qualify as a military objective,” spox Stephane Dujarric said, an attack would still be prohibited if it risks “excessive incidental civilian harm.”

A court would need to decide whether such attacks were #WarCrimes, he said.

#Iran state-run IRNA news agency said #Tehran rejected the latest #ceasefire proposal & wants a permanent end to the #war. The agency said it has conveyed its response to the #US through #Pakistan, a key mediator. “We only accept an end of the war with guarantees that we won’t be attacked again,” Mojtaba Ferdousi Pour, head of the Iranian diplomatic mission in Cairo, told AP Monday.

#Trump, taking questions from reporters during the annual #Easter Egg Rollevent at the White House, reiterated his threats against #Iran, saying the #US was “obliterating the country” because its leadership would not capitulate.

But he also asserted that Americans were dealing with a third wave of leadership that “is not as radicalized.”

Eric Trump & Donald Trump Jr. are set to "benefit from a conflict started by their father."

The two have joined Powerus, a drone manufacturing company trying to sell drones to Gulf countries amid Iranian attacks.

"These countries are under enormous pressure to buy from the sons of the president so he will do what they want. This is going to be the first family of a president to make a lot of money off war".

The claim came as #Iran fired on targets across the region, setting Kuwait’s Mina al-Ahmadi #oil refinery one fire. The state-run #Kuwait Petroleum Corp said firefighters were working to control several blazes there.

Kuwait also said that an Iranian attack caused “material damage” to a #desalination plant. Such plants are responsible for most of the #DrinkingWater for Gulf states, & they have become a major target in the #war.
