Netanyahu's challengers aren't labeling him 'crazy' for striking Lebanon, and are instead painting him as a weak leader who has capitulated to Trump. Watching the opposition hitting the prime minister from the right – not the left – should temper hopes that a Netanyahu defeat will bring a less militaristic regime

Trump also said that Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei is directly involved in negotiations with the United States. 'They've already agreed they're not going to have a nuclear weapon,' he said

Irans Foreign Ministry spokesperson said nuclear issues are not part of the current negotiations, as Tehran first seeks to end the war before discussing its nuclear program, while Trump told CBS News, 'I will only sign a deal where we get everything we want'

Speaking to reporters at the White House a day after saying he had paused a planned resumption of attacks following a new peace proposal by Tehran, Trump said that Iran's leaders ‌are begging to make a deal, but that a new U.S. attack would happen in the coming days if one was not reached

According to an Iranian official who spoke with Reuters, Iran focused its new truce proposal to the U.S. on ending the war and allowing shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. Trump later told the New York Post that he was not open to concessions and that Tehran 'knows what will happen soon'
