Iranian and American leaders both want to reconcile, but there are many in the world including the Israelis, Persian Gulf states, right-wing factions inside the US, the American weapons industry, AIPAC, and others who don’t want these two to set aside their differences and they will be working around the clock to stop it. Don’t be surprised if all of a sudden an alleged Iranian “terror plot” was discovered somewhere around the world, or an Iranian alleged “assassination attempt” was foiled somewhere, or maybe an alleged Iranian ship with weapons in it was captured en route to Hizbullah in Lebanon. If you see this in the news, just know that it was probably staged in order to torpedo the US-Iran reconciliation process.

I totally agree. But also remember that when they want to explain things away, that is exactly what they would do. They can ignore such things or drum them up. Remember the Stark Cruiser was missiled by Saddam in the 80’s. Many sailors died. It was explained away as an error and Reagan gave a speech warning Americans of the dangers of Iran, not Iraq, and the reasons why “we are there.” There was no outrage.
I guess we can all agree that today’s event was a shocker!!
There is hope after all.
