Iran has agreed to never have nuclear weapons, President Donald Trump said Thursday, signaling that Tehran has met a key U.S. demand to help end the war.

The conflict has raised global concerns over nuclear proliferation, as Iran’s nuclear program has been a central issue for the president.

“They’ve agreed,” he said. “They will never have a nuclear weapon. They’ve agreed to that.” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office.

Because the people wanting it for the most part either expect to make money from it, are old and don’t seem to give a shit about their grandchildren growing up in a country drowning in debt, or they simply know they aren’t actually putting themselves at any risk

Then there is the 10% who are willing to fight it for whatever reasons they have and at least have the balls to be willing to go do it themselves

There is a lot more at stake than NO Nukes. Eliminating the existing Government in Iran should be NUMBER 1.

I love what President Trump is doing to keep us safe, but he has never seemed to be interested in addressing the spiraling national debt. DOGE cut only a miniscule amount of money printing.
I know that Congress is the real villain here but the president could use his bully pulpit to get the ball rolling.
The debt will kill us before Iran does.

Sorry but do not actually believe that there have been any talks. Just think that Trump is using a ploy to extract from this inconclusive war that failed in its goals of a regime change or securing the enriched uranium.

I have to believe this is a ploy to get the bombing slowed down temporarily.

Ya think?

Israelis know that these words aren’t worth the graphite dust used to scratch them out in dirt.

There is no peace with Islam. Every Israeli knows this and we need to catch up.

We take Iran. Own it. Because they would do just that to us.

And illegals get hard jail time. Why? Because they would do that to us.

I’m sick of having to take shit from these backward savages we’re forced to inhabit this planet with. I don’t care about fairness and being the biggest person, or being morally questioned about it. Why don’t I care? Because they would do that to us.

Never , never forget, President Trump is a master at trolling the enemy, and that includes both the IRGC and The Democrat Party.

Heads are exploding both here at Dem-dickwad Center, and in Tehran. The MSM are doing toodle twirlies over it all, an amazing sight to behold.

What is the gift from Iran? ( 2000 a square miles on the North Side of the Straights of Hormuz?)

“the US can not afford this war. “

Never underestimate the value of real world experience.

They have always had that position.

RE: “Iran has agreed”

Who is this “Iran” of which they speak of? Does this person really speak for the rest of Iran including those with the triggers to the missiles and drones?

I’m almost picturing this like a comedy skit, where some state department flunkie just googles “Iran” and dials the first phone number that pops up and this whole time they’ve been “negotiating” with like a maintenance guy in some random government department.

I was wondering if it was a ploy to wait till Marines and that other ship get there?

Both sides stalling for advantage.

Trump has done what he could do with air power.

No, there's a lot more that can be done. Iran is still able to fire way too many missiles. We only lose if we quit early.

An absolutely futile gesture.

Our "representatives" in Congress have no intention of cutting government spending in any amount. And they know full well that if they did have such intentions and acted on them, they would never be re-elected. Their sponsors would make sure of that.

The best we can expect is that certain factions of the sponsors will try to cut funding for organizations controlled by their opponents.
