Seven thousand miles is not that far.
They are mapping the moon. I can’t imagine it changed that much in more than 4.5 billion years, but, humans see it differently. It is no longer made of green cheese (Medieval times).

It is just more of the same from Trump.
According to this it sounds as though Iran is ready for peace. They want war reparations. Good. They will open the Straits based on transit fees. That is good, too.
The Panama Canal is not free. Neither are the waterways of Iran. That is appropriate use of a country’s assets. Iran will have to provide for a safe passage if it is collecting fees. So, the issue with pirates won’t exist if in sovereign waters.

I see nothing that is an unreasonable demand from Iran. The leadership wants to get back to governance with a focus on prosperity. That is fantastic. It is a whole new picture for the Gulf countries. I would expect the regional countries to welcome these ideas.
Those transit fees can be a new source of income from a country with a higher rate of impoverishment.
The article below is from the Iranian Resistance. They should be brought into the peace talks. They could settle their complaints along with the countries of the area. I am sure the stark reality of unprecedented war would bring an interesting focus to their leadership.
I think bringing any of the resistance in for talks may result in a clear understanding of their grievances. It could be a turning point resulting in greater domestic peace. It is possible. There are many Iranians jailed that may very well be some of Iran’s best citizens. The leadership should not be afraid of differences in opinion. The resistance has not been violent. There are demonstrators, not criminals.
Greater understanding can lead to greater domestic peace. The leadership can express a reverence for the faith without victimizing citizens with different ideas.

Iran used to be a more open society. Religion is good for tolerance to open communication. There is so much promise with the ideas Iran has for itself, there simply cannot be anymore violence.
The real problem is the USA Republican majority in Congress. They must restrain Trump. Leaders of both parties may very well need to be part of the peace talks as well.
Investigate the 2020 elections?
That is beating a dead horse. It is a waste of taxpayer dollars. Are the Republicans ever going to be serious about governance? It doesn’t seem like it.
It is supposed to get better after resignations, not worse.
Iran is refusing ?
Iran knows regardless the noble effort it does not have a trustworthy partner in the agreement. That what Iran has learned from previous agreements with Rubio.
Pakistan is leading to peace.
Pakistan has delivered a realistic solution toward peace. The proposal achieves all goals.
The problem is this, politics. The world has witnessed a vacillating USA president with statements that are vulgar to those of severe threats to estimations of complete disinterest. Those extremes are not serious statements of intent. Those statements are supposed to reveal a path forward for Trump’s political ambitions. Trump doesn’t care what he does. He doesn’t care about Iran or Iran’s people. He only cares about the number of potential voters in the USA that will provide a political victory.
If walking away from the conflict yielded larger numbers of votes as opposed to bombing Iran into the Stone Age, then that is what he will do. If swearing and screaming gets him more voters than that is what he will go.
This sort of behavior is typical at the end of an American political season when driving voters to the polls is based in rhetoric and nothing serious. It is called, “the silly season.” It is a method of getting the attention of voters not normally involved in voting.
I am convinced his behavior is not about anything except his own political agenda/outcome. He will bomb Iran. He doesn’t care. If it brings voters on board he will destroy the country and people. Trump is about power, not governance.
The majority Republican Congress is stated to be focused on war and not governance.
Pakistan should point out Trump’s crimes to him as well as a peace proposal that balances all interests. If Pakistan fails it will be because it does suit Trump’s politics. We have witnessed the bombing by Hegseth of civilians and civilian infrastructure in Iran. The liberation of the people won’t be achieved if they are dead.

It is a competition never to be used.
The United States of America is in chronic competition for the most sophisticated national defense systems. The country’s intelligence of preparedness competes with China, Russia, and North Korea.
The United States of America likes to measure it’s ability to be secure by being involved in friendly competition elsewhere, like the Olympics, scientific cooperation in remote places like Antarctica and the famous seed bank of Svalbard, Sweden.
There are astounding discoveries made like the Hadron Collider at CERN. E=mC2 is real. It is law. It is not theory. Any idea what that means for understanding this world and the future in understanding our universe? You know. Mars. Interstellar. All that stuff that never turns a profit.
The knowledge of the universe isn’t known yet and treating a pain in the butt attitude about who is the biggest and baddest and has the most control IS A ROYAL WASTE of time and resources.
Enough of this petty attitude that take away the lives of people without a second thought. There are international laws being completely disregarded because a couple of government authorities want control of the world.
KNOCK IT OFF.
This is our Defense Department, not a cache of toys.
These are not “Sissy” observations.
These experts have no interest in politics. They have a legal practice and know what they are talking about. Being a president or Prime Minister within sovereign land and out of reach doesn’t mean it is okay.
It is completely wrong to order an entire military to kill and destroy just because it is possible. In the face of civil methods to end conflict and preserve life ordering a military to move against others is barbaric.
Belligerence must be replaced with trust. Those are not the words of fools. The USA is capable of greatness outside the realm of violence.
Human existence is not guaranteed by the death of an entire population of others.
Donald stop. To begin today is Easter Sunday.
Christians celebrate the risen lord on Easter Sunday. While the crucifixion is a focus, the risen lord over coming his death is a joyful day.
Because, we simply don’t. Obviously the USA is capable of great power that destroys nations of people. We simply don’t. It is called morality.
People are weary of having their sensibilities insulted. War is not a topic for today. Our astronauts are in sight of the moon.
Additionally, the level of hate being displayed flies in the face of international norms. This isn’t 27 BC.
It occurred to me the Trump administration has no working knowledge of why international norms exist. Trump takes example of other powers in the world and figures, “Why can’t I do it?”

Civilians and civilian infrastructure is sacred. Attacking energy grids, food supplies, farmers, and hospitals are illegal. The death of children is not only grossly immoral, it is illegal. It is murder. Child soldiers are out of the question. They usually indicate any regime in trouble as it is resorting to children to carry out atrocities.

United Nation UN80
The United Nations needs to review the power of the 5 permanent members. Resolutions of the UN Security Council should require two vetoes of the 5 permanent nuclear members to stop a resolution from passing.
The world is facing catastrophic effects of a runaway USA military. There needed to be a UN resolution to deescalate a war of choice. Because there was not another veto required the global community had to place diplomacy with each other ahead of normal relations. That takes time and under different circumstances would not necessarily result in a global community supporting the opposition of, quite frankly, maniacs of power.
There should have been a resolution regarding Palestine and now regarding Trump. There have to be guardrails with meaning.
They seem to know where to look.
In the bottom picture they congregate at a spot on the hillside.
It appears General Randy George wasn’t about to carry out illegal orders. He basically called Hegseth and Trump dishonorable cowards.
The General and all the others ousted by Hegseth should testify before Congress. I would think those removed from promotion lists should as well, but, that act of bravery would most likely be met with retribution.

It really is best to think through attempts at genocide.
A land grab is not really going to hold up when Israeli settlers start to migrate into a buffer zone.
Laughable.
“The Board of Peace” has members serving from all over the world, has unknown amount of money somewhere in the world while it doesn’t have enough legal standing to have a website in its name.
Public?
Private?
And as Trump thunk it up cyber squatters registered its name for a profitable sale. Amazing. There is no accountability, only the gathering of money with Trump having sole proprietorship. He should be prosecuted.
And what is it called?
What? What was that?
Yeah. Racketeering.
And, oh, by the way in order to make it look legitimate Israel took a break from bombing Palestinians.
The entire world told the USA and Israel to knock it off.
I suppose the USA needed to have its military downsized. Hegseth is doing a heck of a job achieving that goal. That is the solace any American can draw from this. Its military won’t be able to engage in anymore illegal wars. There are going to be a lot of dead soldiers, downed aircraft and damaged if not sunken navy vessels. There are far easier ways to downsize the military than attempting genocide.

The Republicans in Congress aren’t even disgusted with Trump’s ideology and behavior. The Republicans figure it is best to watch and see what Trump can get away with through the courts. Loopholes. It is all pretty damn disgusting. They really are a disgrace.
Does anyone know why this mess started?
So, with Iran’s nuclear capacity gone, besides killing just to be killing, what is this all about? The USA has already taken a beating both by its own command structure and Iran.
I guess Trump chose Monday to invade so the American military can get it right with God on Easter. That is an element in all this. The idea the dead will go to their life after death. That’s part of the hubris that lingers with these bozos. I would speculate Trump and Netanyahu figure that into the equation, hence, killing others is not a tragedy so much as spiritual liberation.
The MIA pilot? I don’t know what Iran is using to knock those jets out of the sky, but, there wasn’t much left of it when it hit the ground. If the pilot was hit directly the ejection seat could have been completely destroyed without ejecting with the pilot. From what can be observed that was a fairly powerful missile that hit the jet.
It is a fool-hearty effort. I don’t know what Trump thinks he is going to gain. I simply can’t believe how negligent Congress is. Susan Collins said they can’t seem to get the president to engage in dialogue. That is a statement of avoidance and negligence. Basically, from the lack of action to end this hideous aggression is permission to continue. Congressional Republicans are a problem. They are making excuses to appear to be helpless. They aren’t. This is their agenda.
