Over the past week, both the U.S. and Iran delivered frameworks to mediators aimed at ending the ongoing war. The Trump administration is now insisting that its framework must be the basis for any negotiations, a high-level Iranian official told Drop Site, as President Donald Trump’s top envoy on Friday repeatedly asserted that direct talks are imminent and that the U.S. expects a response from Tehran in the coming days.

But Iran, which continues to launch regular missile and drone attacks at Israel and at U.S. military sites across the Persian Gulf, maintains that Trump is sinking deeper into a quagmire and Tehran will decide when the war ends.

      I would actually prefer to see an Ancient Rome style triumph. Trump, Rubio and Hegseth paraded in chains through the streets of Tehran, in front of tens of thousands of cheering Iranians before before brought up the steps of the Temple of Cyrus the Great. There will be a speech about how the Iranian people once again persevered before the three are symbolically garrotted as the crowds fall silent.
