Khamenei calls Trump and tells him: "I had a dream last night that New York was all rubble, and Iranian flags were flying everywhere." Trump replies: Strange, I had a dream last night that Tehran is thriving, has a lot of high-tech, and lots of billboards. Khamenei asks: What do the signs say? Trump replies: I don't know, it's in Hebrew

Fan from Jordan 🇯🇴 — not many people realize this, but we are peaceful neighbors. Although Jordan is overwhelmed with refugees, we still hope for greater cooperation between our two nations to address regional challenges and protect people of all creeds across the Middle East

It has been suggested for several years that Iran has the fastest-growing underground church in the world. Pray for the Iranian people, who are also prisoners under this regime.

I have waited 4 decades for this. As a young Air Force pilot I flew into Tehran regularly when the Shah was in power. Compared to it's neighbors it was an oasis. Women were educated and vital to the country. I had one classmate from high school who was one of the hostages and a good college friend that died trying to rescue them. I truly believe it will be rebuilt to glory and flourish.

When Ben said "Good Cop, Bad Cop," I thought of the US coming into an interrogation room after Israel walked out after beating the shyte out of Iran. US: Hey, buddy. You okay? You got to forgive my partner. He gets carried away sometimes. I'm going to leave this treaty right here and give you time to look at it while I go talk to our lieutenant about his behavior.
