Iran on Thursday repudiated a declaration from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) that it's not complying with its nuclear obligations, and said it would enhance aspects of its nuclear program in response.

President Trump on Friday called on Iran to go back to the negotiating table and cut a nuclear deal "before there is nothing left" after Israel attacked its nuclear sites.

The Trump administration wants to use the war Israel started to get the Iranians back to the nuclear talks when they are in a weaker position.
A U.S. official said White House envoy Steve Witkoff still wants to meet Iran's foreign minister Abbas Araghchi on Sunday for the planned sixth round of the nuclear talks. But the Iranians said they are not going to participate.

"I gave Iran chance after chance to make a deal. I told them, in the strongest of words, to just do it. But no matter how hard they tried, no matter how close they got, they just couldn't get it done," Trump wrote on Truth Social Friday morning.
Trump said he warned Iran that military action against its nuclear program "would be much worse than anything they know, anticipated, or were told."
"Certain Iranian hardliner's spoke bravely, but they didn't know what was about to happen. They are all DEAD now, and it will only get worse!" he stressed.
The president said another planned wave of attacks against Iran will be "even more brutal" and called on the Iranians to make a deal and "save what was once known as the Iranian Empire".
"JUST DO IT, BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE," Trump wrote.

That was before Israel (reacted) attacked this recalcitrant enemy of it and the US. US kicks can down the road; Israel attacks can.
Sorry to see that even President Trump occasionally inserts an apostrophe where it doesn't belong.
Regards,
“...what was once known as the Iranian Empire”
That has a nice ring to it. Let it be so.
I'm sure he had his reasons. Everything here — from the words in all-caps to the exclamation points — seems precicely chosen by the President.
He’s wrong in all the right ways, a_b.
...the war Israel started...Axios chooses a selective memory as it lies to appease the international anti-Israel bias.
Good cop / Bad cop tactic.
Let me guess. The UN and the left will likely rally to Iran’s side. Iran will play the role of victim attacked by the dastardly Israel.

Maybe a little too much Covfefe this morning.
With this attack by Israel, and the fact that Israel had so many operatives inside iran, maybe they will come to their senses {but I doubt it}.
This whole iran problem is jimmah carter's fault, he was not only stupid but that bastard was evil {did I mention the Panama Canal disaster}.
The order for Hamas to attack Israel we now know was given on October 3rd, 2023.
They then proceeded on October 7th to commit the most horrible atrocities ever seen in the land of Israel since the Romans burned the Temple August 10-12 of 70 AD.
Praying for the peace of Jerusalem.
Nothing left of what, exactly?
“This whole iran problem is jimmah carter’s fault,”
Agree 100%, Carter the antisemite was weak and corrupted and turned this evil loose on the world.
Iran’s wicked mullahs no longer have all their pallets of Obama dollars along with Hamas, Hezbollah and Houthi surrogates to fight their battles while they all sit back in their cushioned billionaire thrones and and cowardly direct the action from afar. Now its on their doorstep.
However they do still appear to have some of their Obama supplied drones to let loose.
Apostrophe? Does anyone think Trump types his own transcripts?
Carter blew it. The Iranian people are against the mullahs. They are good people who rose up to take back their country and Carter cut the legs out from underneath them.
Maybe this time the Iranian people will be successful. The world will be a safer place.
EC
Obama also cut the legs out from underneath them when he was president.
“send someone in to negotiate”
