Surprise surprise, turns out Iran is attending the talks 😂
As I've said before, all this is posturing by both sides, and has been since April 8th.
THE WAR IS OVER, GO TOUCH GRASS!
Mario Nawfal@MarioNawfal
MIXED REPORTS ON WHETHER IRAN IS ATTENDING PEACE TALKS ROUND 2 For days they said they won't be. AP just said they will, and Reuters then said they are "considering" Mark my word, they will attend. They're posturing, they don't want to push Trump over the edge & restart the war
English
@MarioNawfal But wait... you said Iran won the war. Was that just wishful thinking?
English
🚨🇺🇸🇨🇳 Trump's blockade is reportedly bleeding Iran $400 million a day.
$13 billion a month.
They can only store oil for two weeks before they start shutting off wells.
The Strait of Hormuz leverage play might work exactly as designed.

🇮🇷 The first Iranian vessel has reportedly entered international waters after Trump’s strong warning and the start of the US naval blockade on Iranian ports. The ship reportedly turned its navigation systems back on and resumed movement. This is a direct early test of the blockade. Trump threatened to “eliminate” any Iranian ships approaching it, so Iran sending one out (even with nav systems previously off) looks like a calculated challenge i.e.: seeing how far the US is willing to go. Why this matters: If the US lets it pass without action, the blockade loses credibility fast. If they intercept or escalate, we could see a quick spiral in the Strait of Hormuz. Either way, this small ship just became a big symbol in the standoff. Source: @DrMalko

@MarioNawfal But iran won the war and it will generate billions a year in tolls,right?

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 NEGOTIATIONS FAIL AS BLOCKADE BEGINS
The recent collapse of high-level talks and Trump’s new naval blockade justify the cautious pessimism held by JCPOA Negotiator Alan Eyre.
While some saw a silver lining in the 21-hour direct dialogue, Eyre notes that the U.S. continues to wrongly expect total Iranian capitulation following military pressure.
Alan warns that despite the remaining ceasefire time, the two sides are currently miles apart.

@PeterSchiff You don't see a problem with Iran getting a nuclear bomb?
English
So starting a war in the Middle East turned out to be a big mistake. Well, it's not like anyone could have seen that coming.
English
Credit to Trump: When the regime didn’t collapse in the early days of the war, he quickly pivoted the objective to weakening their military and trying to get control of the Strait of Hormuz
Once the former was achieved and latter failed, he called it quits and began to wrap up
I’ve said from the beginning, the war’s a mistake and I’m heavily against it, but I won’t make up my final mind until the dust settles and we see how it all ends, and so far I’m impressed: Trump’s walked away and is forcing Israel to do the same
If the next steps involve doing business with Iran and reshaping the Middle East to one with less conflict and proxy wars, then that would be a HUGE win for the U.S., the region and the world.

Trump made a mistake getting into this war (we can all debate why), but did a great job getting out of it (despite all the pressure by Israel and war mongers around him)

@shipwreckedcrew Unless they accused Biden of sexual assault.

I personally can't stand Eric Swalwell, but the idea that EVERY DEMOCRAT would instantly renounce him, and demand he exit the race of which he's been front-runner, without doing a shred of due diligence to verify anything, just reflects an ongoing disease endemic to the party

@MarioNawfal What about Hezbollah and Iran targeting civilians. Have you mentioned that that is a violation of international humanitarian law?
English
🚨🇮🇱🇱🇧 Israel struck electric generators in Jibchit village in southern Lebanon as ceasefire talks are under way in Islamabad.
For whoever needs a reminder, targeting civilian infrastructure is a violation of international humanitarian law.

🚨🇮🇷 The IRGC claims it recovered parts of a Northrop Grumman AN/AAQ-24 LAIRCM (a classified U.S. laser-based missile defense system) from the wreckage of US MC-130 aircraft in Isfahan. The U.S. deliberately destroyed the disabled planes during a rescue mission to prevent sensitive equipment from being captured. Iran says it now has the system that protects America's most sensitive transport aircraft from heat-seeking missiles. Source: The Guardian
English
@MarioNawfal How is that possible? You said Iran won the war.
English
🇮🇱🇮🇷 Israel is apparently already preparing for talks to fail and things to escalate again.
Reports say the army is getting ready in case Washington–Tehran negotiations collapse, with plans in place to resume strikes on Iran.
Message is pretty direct, if no real deal comes out of the talks, attacks are back on the table.

🇮🇷🇵🇰 IRAN JUST LANDED IN ISLAMABAD. LOOK WHO THEY SENT The composition of this delegation tells you exactly how seriously Tehran is taking these talks. And what they actually want out of them. ▪️Iran’s Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf ▪️Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi ▪️Secretary of the Supreme National Defense Council Ali Akbar Ahmadian ▪️Central bank governor Abdolnaser Hemmati ▪️Former IRGC commander Mohammad Bagher Zolghadr The central bank governor's presence is the most telling detail. Iran didn't fly its top financial official to Islamabad to talk about missiles. They came for the economics: the sanctions, the frozen assets, the reconstruction money. That's the prize Tehran actually wants to walk out with. A war delegation would look different. This one looks like a country that thinks it has enough leverage to finally get paid.

@barnes_law Just wait until the BRICS and the Democrats take over. Covid time 1000.
English
@barnes_law Unbelievable how you are helping the Democrats take the house and senate after they locked everyone up during Covid. Useful idiot.
English
The Trump administration turned into everything its critics caricatured it as -- dumb, thuggish, street-level mobster mentality, domestically & globally, using American power to line their pockets & protect their cronies while threatening the world.

FBI whistleblowers now claim that FBI officials IN THE TRUMP ADMIN applied pressure on @BlazeTV to silence or remove @SteveBakerUSA over his reporting on the J6th pipe bomber. They also claim a career federal agent who helped Baker's investigation is now dead. HUGE STORY.

@barnes_law We won Vietnam militarily, but lost because of guys like you.
English
FYI: the madman strategy never actually worked for Nixon. He ended up agreeing to the same terms North Vietnam had offered since 1968. Oh, and what happened to Vietnam at the end of the war? Did we free it?

@MarioNawfal Trump forced the ceasefire after hammering Iran hard. Netanyahu’s just drawing his red lines on Hezbollah. Next few days will prove Trump’s the one actually calling the shots.
English
THE NEXT FEW HOURS AND DAYS WILL CONFIRM WHETHER NETANYAHU CONTROLS TRUMP, OR TRUMP CONTROLS NETANYAHU
Mario Nawfal@MarioNawfal
NETANYAHU JUST RE-CONFIRMED HEZBOLLAH IS NOT PART OF THE CEASEFIRE Seems Trump caved to Netanyahu, for now
English
@Kev96790724 @MarioNawfal Iran and its proxies target civilians. Israel goes after military targets and civilians get killed because Iran and its proxies use civilians as shields. Israel evacuated Gaza in 2006, forcing its settlers to leave. Hamas slaughtered innocent Israeli civilians on Oct. 7, 2023.
English
HEZBOLLAH, ISRAEL & IRAN ALL HAVE BLOOD ON THEIR HANDS WHEN IT COMES TO LEBANON
None of them care about the Lebanese people!
Below is the IDF's explanation for the massive bombing of Lebanon today
Let's hope this is the end of it, a final (disgusting) blow
Mario Nawfal@MarioNawfal
TODAY IS A DAY OF WAR CRIMES IN LEBANON If Netanyahu's goal was to turn the Lebanese people against Hezbollah, he failed miserably I hope the Israeli people can see this, and stop getting brainwashed by their hardline politicians I hate Hezbollah as much as the next person but this is NOT the way to get rid of them! (Below is a funeral ceremony that was just bombed)
English
@Kev96790724 @MarioNawfal That's what England said when Hitler went after Poland. That didn't work out to well for the world.
English
@vaping_rocks @MarioNawfal Then Israel should stop expecting our protection.
English
@Neverup23734180 @MarioNawfal Israel has never used its nuclear weapons. Clearly they are for defensive purposes. Iran would use nuclear weapons offensively as it has threatened to wipe Israel off the face of the earth. Israel could have nuked Iran, but it hasn't. If Iran could nuke Israel, it would.
English
@MarioNawfal Right
Iran and Israel shouldn’t have nuclear weapons
English
🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 Sec of War Hegseth: "Iran will never possess a nuclear weapon under this deal.
Any material they shouldn't have will be removed.
There will be no Iranian nuclear weapons. Period. Full stop."
Mario Nawfal@MarioNawfal
🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 Sec of War Hegseth: "Trump had the power to cripple Iran's entire economy in minutes. But he chose mercy."

These are the Twitter/X accounts with the most engagement so far in 2026. I suppose I had some intuition for how bad it was, but jeez, this is what you get when the ecosystem is broken.
English
@WeTheBrandon If the U.S. says, "We're done here" before the current Iranian regime agrees to end its nuclear ambitions and ballistic missile program, then Trump is just kicking the can down the road.
English
War-winning behavior. Just end this thing now. We can all move on and start rebuilding now rather than dragging this out needlessly.

Trump on Iran: "Pete, I think you were the first one to speak up. You said, 'Let's do it.'"
English
Israel does not launch attacks from hospitals, schools, or mosques, nor does it build tunnels under civilian homes for offensive operations. Israeli civilians in Tel Aviv are not treated as "shields" when enemies target the Kirya; they are collateral risks in any urban conflict. IDF doctrine emphasizes warnings (e.g., "roof knocking," calls/texts) and precautions to minimize civilian harm during operations.
English
@vaping_rocks @MarioNawfal Israel should stop putting their military installations in civilian areas the same thing they accused Hamas you of doing in a much more smaller area compared to Israel. Every accusation is a confession
English
🇮🇷 Iran’s “low-cost” cruise missile navigation is smart layering
They combine 3 layers:
-Cheap commercial GPS for basic positioning
-Inertial navigation to keep flying without signals
-Terrain matching to correct errors using preloaded maps and ground scans
The key is terrain matching, where the missile compares the ground below with stored elevation maps and continuously corrects its path in real time, even if GPS is jammed.
Nothing revolutionary. This tech exists for decades.
What matters is the approach: cheap components, open data, and multiple backups working together.
End result: not perfect, but reliable enough to hit targets without needing a military satellite network.

🇮🇷 Iran’s Health Ministry says the Pasteur Institute, a key hub for vaccine and infectious disease research, was hit in an attack. They call it “a direct assault on global health security,” violating the Geneva Conventions. The century-old institute is part of the international Pasteur network. Source: @iranintl
