Iran Rejects Trump's Proposal to End War, Has 5 Conditions

Iran's government on Wednesday rejected President Trump's plan for ending the war and vowed to continue fighting until a list of Iran's own conditions are met.

Iran's demands include war reparation payments and recognition of its sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz.

Although the response may be a blow to the U.S. proposal, it signaled the opening of some sort of negotiating between the two countries as the war approaches the one-month mark.

Israel is determined to keep fighting Iran and the Iranian-backed militant group Hezbollah in Lebanon.

"Multiple Iranian diplomatic offices shared the government's demands on social media after Iran's state Press TV first reported them, citing an Iranian senior political security official.

The demands include safeguards against future attacks on Iran, the payment of war reparations to the country and a recognition of Iranian sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz.

Press TV said the U.S. proposal had been "delivered via a friendly regional intermediary." The Associated Press reported earlier that Pakistan " which has warm ties with both the U.S. and Iran " gave Iran the message.

The U.S. proposal, as first reported by The New York Times and Israel's Channel 12, included Iran's commitment to never pursuing nuclear weapons and dismantling any existing nuclear capabilities."

recognition of its sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz.

Yeaaaaah no. Territorial waters only extend about 14 miles (12 nautical miles).

According to the maps I've been able to find, the shipping lanes at the narrowest point are outside of Iran's territorial waters.

So wouldn't their attacking civilian shipping be piracy?

Another Iraq': Nancy Mace Walks Out of Iran Briefing, Warns They' Want Boots on the Ground

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) said on Wednesday she walked out of a House Armed Services briefing on Iran and then warned against the U.S. sending troops into Iran.

Mace posted a string of comments on social media, beginning with, "Just walked out of a House Armed Services briefing on Iran. Let me repeat: I will not support troops on the ground in Iran, even more so after this briefing."

The South Carolina Republican later added, "Washington's war machine is hard at work. They are try [sic] to drag us into Iran to make it another Iraq. We can't let them." She later added:

"I will not support sending South Carolina's sons and daughters to war in Iran. I won't do it.

President Trump has been enormously successful so far.

But we cannot allow the Washington War Machine to turn Iran into another Iraq."

Mace added in another post, "The justifications presented to the American public for the war in Iran were not the same military objectives we were briefed on today in the House Armed Services Committee. This gap is deeply troubling. The longer this war continues, the faster it will lose the support of Congress and the American people."
