One Reply to “Israel – you’ve got a lot of nerve!”
Another slant on this:
“The British paper The Guardian on March 11 reported that the United States Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Whitkoff had already twice requested a ceasefire from the Iranian state through various channels, with Iran having refused on the basis that the U.S. would likely use the ceasefire to better prepare for a future attack. The United States’ initiation of hostilities on February 28 occurred during negotiations, possibly as part of an effort to lower the Iranian Armed Forces’ guard, while the initiation of twelve days of Israeli attacks with U.S. support on June 13, 2025, were also launched during the middle of negotiations. Senior Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps officer Ali Fadavi himself commented on requests for a ceasefire on March 11, observing: “Since yesterday, Trump has been personally asking to declare a ceasefire. If the enemy were winning the war, he would not be calling on the whole world to mediate to declare a ceasefire.” He added: “the Americans should expect new surprises in the coming days.”
