Why Isn't Israel Included In The US/Iran Peace Talks

Aren't the talks just Kabuki Theater without Israel agreeing to a peace plan?

With that said, I don't think that Krasnov or Bibi want the war to stop. I see that Saudi Arabia and the UAE have reopened their air space for US planes to use. Does this signify more bombing of infrastructure or does it signal air cover for the US destroyers to escort ships through Hormuz?

I see that crude has gone back up about 1.5%

Krasnov mistakenly believes that it will only take a couple more weeks before Iran surrenders because its floundering economy. I just heard a former general say today that Iran can suck it up for at least 3 more months.

Maybe I better fill up my lawn mower gas cans now?

Anyone hear anyone on TV talk about how much Krasnov has increased the national debt? We are way over debt to GDP, our GDP doesn't cover the interest on our debt. Yet People still call Republicans "conservatives."
