All they are doing is an attempt to create an excuse
to stay in power.

Since they get off on war and killing, it's a win win
for them, even if it means lose lose on the negotiation'
front.

All that. And they don't see any problem with Kushner et al.

And real estate

delegated to the task. It is acknowledged at times, but insufficiently in conjunction with the recurrent (and predictable for that reason) failures.

It has been reported that Iranian negotiators object to being in the same room with Jared.

Add in the threats and the willy-nilly demands of our Commander-in-Chief.

You couldn't fuck this up worse if you tried.

Asking for a planet

He’s special for sure…

specious 😀

same.

He fits with the Trumps.

It might be useful to keep these separate.

Muslim fundies. But rather than thinking his religious persuaion (if he actually has any), I think his Zionism and closeness with Bibi would be offensive to them.

But yes, his sense of entitlement is universally offensive. Just another rich creep from a crime family, a crooked nepo baby. His desire for waterfront real estate in Gaza....

Though they seem to favor the Med. I wonder if this has anything to do with climate refugia for the warlords. New Zealand, Hawaii, the Med.

I think Jared was shown the door, or maybe he decided he wasn't the right guy to handle it, I don't know.

...of enrichment and the differences between enriching to medical grade and weapons grade and the fact that Witkoff and Kushner were seemingly unaware that the JCPOA allowed enriching to 20% (medical grade) for good reason. And were also seemingly oblivious to other technical basics critical to any negotiation.

I think it was an Al Jazeera report, but am not sure. It was around the same time I heard the "golf buddies" comment reported.

frustration over the American negotiators not understanding basics. And it probably was Al Jazeera where I read it. Not the kind of thing you'd expect from American media.

No official standing with US govt, unless you count Ivanka as govt.

Country club locker room talk vs physicists. No experience required.

. . . that no competent person. Wants to be associated with Trump.

Even crime takes SOME expertise, besides hiring Capone-class accountants.

to negotiate with Iran, Israel's mortal enemy, was probably not the smartest idea. Never mind that Netanyahu once slept in Jared Kuschner's childhood bedroom in the 90's when he visited the U.S.

stop bombing Lebanon.

The only way to get Israel to stop is to threaten to cut off U.S. arms shipments, and to follow through on that threat if they keep bombing.

He knows nothing of negotiating strategy, mideast history & politics, science & technology nor geography. His flunkies are equally incompetent, incurious and ignorant. They do not know anything about the issues. How could they since they don't have the background and knowledge required for such complex discussions?

Sending two Jews to "negotiate" with Muslims demonstrates rudeness, religious ignorance and unserious intentions. The Iranians are justified in their disgust with Trump & Co.

Trump lost his war so it's pretty rich that he is trying to set terms. Pathetic.

Trump is a loser.
