I went looking for the actual text of Trump’s “15 point plan” for a “deal” to end Netanyahu and Trump’s war on Iran, and couldn’t really find it. the closest I got was these 10 points . Fuck knows what the other five points are,but these ten alone are completely unrealistic :

A 30-day ceasefire.
The dismantling of Iran’s nuclear facilities in Natanz, Isfahan and Fordow.
A permanent commitment from Iran to never develop nuclear weapons.
The handover of Iran’s stockpile of already enriched uranium to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), and a commitment from Iran to allow the IAEA to monitor all elements of the country’s remaining nuclear infrastructure. Iran must also no longer enrich uranium within the country.
Limits on the range and number of Iran’s missiles.
Ending Iran’s support for regional proxies.
Ending Iranian strikes on regional energy facilities.
Reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.
A removal of all sanctions imposed on Iran, alongside the ending of the UN mechanism that allows sanctions to be reimposed.
The provision of US support for electricity generation at Iran’s Bushehr civil nuclear plant.

Like the 10 points Austria-Hungary demanded from Serbia in 1914? Never expected to be met, but to give an excuse for intervention after their rejection?

Massive if true:
* France and Ukraine lays a "Wagatha Christie" style trap.
* Trump's jolly boys walk directly into it.

The nice thing about military intelligence stories is - we can never be sure.

Iran-backed hackers breach FBI director Kash Patel's personal emails

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cvgl4yk7vgpo

FBI Director Kash Patel's personal email account has been hacked by an Iran-linked group, the agency has confirmed.

A group, known as the Handala Hack Team, shared Patel's purported resume and photos of him on its website on Friday along with a statement that says: "This is just our beginning."

"If your director can be compromised this easily, what do you expect from your lower-level employees?," it says.

The FBI said it was aware of "malicious actors" targeting Patel's email information, adding, the information accessed was "historical in nature and involves no government information".

What's the betting that his password was "12345678"?
