Netanyahu sees 'no risk' in opposing Trump on Gaza plan
Former Israeli diplomat Alon Pinkas said Netanyahu absolutely needs a permanent war. Israel's rejection of the Gaza plan should be viewed entirely against the backdrop of the October 27 Israeli elections. Pinkas said Netanyahu has made a calculation he sees as risk-free — he believes he can openly defy Trump because Trump doesn't care that much, because of timing, because Hamas has not yet disarmed, and because he can do so with impunity. It's all about permanent war and elections. (Jin Shi) -

US Media: Trump Halts Military Action Against Iran, Says Handling Iran Issue 'Quietly'
August 10 news, according to Axios, US President Trump said on Sunday local time that he is prepared to increase economic pressure on Iran rather than order new military action, despite Iran continuing to resist the United States. The report said Trump said in a brief phone call: "We are handling this quietly." "We are only in a semi-negotiation state. We are just watching Iran, they face serious inflation and are short of funds." He emphasized that the Iranian economy "is in very bad shape" and has no money to pay military salaries. Trump said the US naval blockade has exacerbated the economic crisis of the Iranian regime. Meanwhile, Trump said that because oil prices have fallen to just above $75 per barrel, American consumers have felt less pain from the war. "It will work out. It always works out. It's like chess," Trump said of the back-and-forth with Iran. (Jin10) -

Experts: The Strait of Hormuz 'Will Never' Return to Pre-War Status
Ali Akbar Dareini, a researcher at the Iranian Strategic Studies Center, stated that Iran and Oman are about to reach an agreement on the future management of the Strait of Hormuz, with the main obstacle being U.S. pressure on Oman to adopt a position more aligned with Washington. Dareini emphasized that Iran considers future control of the strait crucial for its national security. In recent months, the U.S. has conducted strikes against Iran, which Iran claims were launched from bases in the region. Dareini noted that the ongoing negotiations between Iran and Oman present the U.S. with a 'good opportunity to extricate itself from this quagmire' by recognizing Iran and Oman as the countries that will determine the 'future' of the Strait of Hormuz. 'However, the Strait of Hormuz will never return to its pre-war status,' he continued. 'The geopolitical landscape of the region has changed.' -
