Vance: US has completed its military goals - it's up to Iran how war ends
https://www.bbc.com/news/live/c5yw4g3z7qgt(snip)

US Vice President JD Vance has been speaking from Budapest, where he's meeting Hungary's leader Viktor Orban.
Taking questions from reporters, the Washington Post asks Vance if he has any new information that suggests a deal can be reached between the US and Iran.
In response, Vance says the US has "fundamentally" completed its military objectives in Iran. The nature of the war's conclusion is up to the Iranians, he goes on, adding that there are "two pathways" for the war to end.
One is where "Iranians decide they're going to be a normal country, they're not going to fund terrorism anymore, they're going to be part of the world system of commerce and exchange".
The other option, Vance says, is "if the Iranians don't come to the table... then the economic situation in Iran will continue to be very very bad".

of world Democracies collaborating with a Putin puppet to get points of you're own with him? Trying to look "sane" compared to your other daddy for the cameras? You can't play the game motherfucker. We know who you are. You can try and hide who you really are behind your wife and kids but you're not smart enough or slick enough to pull it off. You remind me of a washed up drunk travelling evangelist.... that fucks couches!
