I guess Trump thinks it is okay for Iran to violate the ceasefire, but not okay for Israel to defend itself when that happens.

Count me as doubtful but hopeful. We may not have been in this exact place before but in all the years we have been at ones that rhyme and there has never been a lasting peace in the ME.

"When I say 12 hours [of ceasefire], you don't go out in the first hour and drop everything you have on them," Trump said.

I believe Trump said there was 12 hours until the ceasefire starts, not 12 hours "of cease fire", Axios.

Trump did great over the weekend. He went up and fell back down again by pressuring Israel to take hits.

Iran will attack again amd again knowing Israel will not defend herself.

Trump successfully pressures Israel to scale back retaliation strike in Iran

And I believe Israel did NOT scale back the "retaliation", Axios.

"When I say 12 hours [of ceasefire], you don't go out in the first hour and drop everything you have on them," Trump said. "I am not happy with Israel going out this morning because of one rocket that was shot [by Iran], perhaps by mistake."

This was f-ing idiotic to say. Israel bombed miltiary installations last night - after warning civilians to stay clear. But Iran sent 15 missiles at the same time - KILLING at least 5 Israeli civilians, mostly women. And Trump is mad at ISRAEL?? Insanity.

It is my understanding that the US attack on Fordow would have blocked access for about two weeks to the centrifuges and the highly enriched U-235 that might have been stored there.

Not long after, Trump gives Iran an unlimited time to get to the stuff.

Trump believes the stuff has been destroyed, but I know of no convincing evidence to that effect.

I suspect Trump has got the US placed back high on the Iranian hit list for attacks that will not as a result of his ceasefire be helpful in the long term.

The enriched U-235 would mostly be in containers.

Now let’s see what Iran does with that. If they attack again, then all bets are off and it’s on them what happens next. We’ll see; they are insane and demonically possessed.
