Senior Iranian official told Al Jazeera:
“It does not include any ideas regarding our missile systems and our defense plans. The principle of permanently zero enrichment, dismantling nuclear facilities, and transferring uranium stockpiles is completely rejected.”

According to trading data on Polymarket, only 29% of the market believes there will be a strike on Iran by the end of next week.
Interesting.
How do they aggregate this data exactly? From polling?

Looks like Israel is starting to pave the road to Iran. Israeli and US aerial forces would most likely have to fly over the Baalbek area on mission sorties to Iran:

It appears that enough tankers have now been stationed in Europe to supply fuel for trips from the UK to the Middle East:

Today's F-35A and yesterday evening F-22 deployments to Europe are now being carried out without the transfer of tankers between the continent.
Tankers based in the continental United States provide refueling for the first half of the journey while USAF tankers deployed to the UK allow the jets to complete their flight.
This change susggests that there are now enough tankers in Europe and no additional one are needed.

How did Israel get messed up?
Did they run out of munitions?
Lose aircraft?
I'm asking not arguing.

They don’t want the next a hole to just move in and then we have to worry about the power vacuum.
I'm not meaning to rag on you, but I wanted to spout off with my opinion on topic of the power vacuum.
Iran took 66 Americans hostage in 79. 52 of them were kept for 444 days. Since then they've been spreading and supporting death and destruction through terrorism and proxy terrorists cells such as Hezbollah, Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), and various militias in Iraq and Yemen.
In my opinion, I don't believe Washington, Israel, Saudi Arabia, or any civilized middle eastern country is very concerned about the next a-hole or the power vacuum. Iran has got to go, NOW, end of concern and discussion. All the preparation the US and other countries have underway will end in war with Iran, of this there is no doubt. To be successful this attack will need to be fast , short term and immediate pull back. Support for the civilian population of Iran and the acceptance and incorporation of the regular army to overthrow the IRGC will be paramount. How the US performs the latter, I have no idea.
Sorry for being so long winded, but with no tanks rolling in, or boots on the ground, the Iranian people will have to carry the load after we kick the hornets nest.

Israel is bracing for a breakdown in U.S. Iran negotiations and the prospect of American military action. Security officials assess that Hezbollah and the Houthis could enter the fight if conflict erupts. The IDF struck 8 Radwan Force positions in Lebanon today as part of its forward posture.
Officials say that if Tehran refuses U.S. terms, a decisive phase begins. Some in Jerusalem believe President Trump may initially opt for a calibrated strike designed to force Iran back to the table.
At the same time, Israeli planners are preparing for a far broader campaign against Iran, one that could fundamentally reshape the regional balance of power.

U.S. demands presented to Iran in Geneva:
- Destroy all three nuclear sites: Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan
- Transfer all enriched uranium to the U.S.
- No sunset clauses, meaning restrictions would be permanent
- 0 enrichment, though the Tehran reactor could remain
- Limited upfront sanctions relief, with more only if Iran complies
Source: The Wall Street Journal
*cannot see Iran agreeing to all conditions.
