    Well that’s just threatening them with a good time.

    Netanyahu doesn’t want a ceasefire and he does want Iran to attack and draw the US into the conflict.

      And this is Iran trying to defuse that trap. They’ve explicitly told the US not to take the bait on it, and are offering an olive branch instead of insisting that the only option is blood for blood.

      Of course the message won’t land, but imo they’re being pretty clear about it.

      Netanyahu only wants one thing, and it’s to stay in power for as long as possible. If a regional war gives that to him (via Ben-Gvir), he won’t mind.
