The Wall Street Journal, quoting Middle Eastern officials, reports that Iran has only cut off its "direct" communications with the US not its talks with ceasefire mediators.
While the move has temporarily complicated efforts to make a deal by Trump’s 8 p.m. deadline, it hasn't ended the talks, the report said.
"Iran intended to send a signal of disapproval and defiance by severing communications," one official was quoted as saying.
Iran's state-run Tehran Times later reported that "diplomatic and indirect channels of talks with the US are not closed."
The Tehran-based paper had earlier reported that Iran had cut "all diplomatic and backchannel talks" with the US.

A distinction without a difference.
BOMBS AWAY!!!
Maybe they’ll make a deal. I hope we “cut off” a lot more.
When you no longer trust in Allah, put chain children around your bridges, hoping the mercy of Jesus will save you now.
Jesus is God.
I was told they are desperate to make a deal.
Bye Bye.
Hiding behind women and children is a despicable and cowardly tactic employed by Islamic terrorists forever.
It’s time to end this sht once and for all.
Bomb the hell out of them.
Kill mullahs & break as much stuff as you can before they call for a “hudna.” (rest period when they re-arm & reconstitute, Shia Islam relies on deception)
President Trump showed mercy in his first term. None is obliged now.
Iran cuts off ‘direct’ communications with US, not talks with mediators - WSJ
The Iranian president and the Speaker of the House are but they are both deathly afraid of the IRGC. However, since that recent pulverization of the IRGC in their underground bunker, does the threat from that direction still exist?
Good thing “our greatest ally” doesn’t have a load of their command structure and intelligence ops housed under residential areas and hospitals
Guess they are going for Hail Mary...
That's a break for us. The terrorists weren't, never have been, nor ever will be, actually negotiating.

To Iran:
Don’t call us. Let us know when your response is Unconditional Surrender. Congratulations on enjoying the new Iran, much less developed than the old Iran.
Donald Trump.
I was told the war was over a month ago. LOL.
What are you going to do? Bleed on me?
” Interesting caveat here.”
There’s a reason. Iran wishes to be seen by the world as the reasonable actor. But their responses, which have so far been, “We win everything. You lose everything and give us pallets of cash,” would be instantly denied in face-to-face negotiations. This would not allow the Iranians to present their “offer” to the world. It is also a built-in delay buying more time to “negotiate.”
My experience with radical Islam believers is much like liberals, they insist on you seeing the world as they want it to be. Meaning, they don’t give you the opportunity to respond. If they say it, that means it’s real and you must adapt.
