Britain’s national security adviser, Jonathan Powell, was surprised by the Iranian offer and believed that war could have been averted, reports the Guardian.
The Iranians are liars and masters of deception. They smile in your face and will stab you in the back as soon as you turn around. There were no “deals”, just another spin on the merry go round to give them more time to develop a nuclear weapon. The attack on Iran was the right decision. The UK is truly lost with their current leadership and they are becoming worse than China or North Korea regarding freedom of speech.
Yes of course how could I forget? Let’s blame the Jews for living in the Middle East while Iran publicly states they will wipe the country off the map? You mean that country? Why should they worry while Iran proxies like Hamas and Hezbollah do their bidding to terrorize the Jewish people? So finally Israel and the US do something about it and you want to complain? It only took them 47 years to finally do something and if it wasn’t for Trump it wouldn’t have happened. Iran had plenty of chances to stand down and now it’s too late.
Hating Israel doesn’t change facts. You’re entitled to your opinion but you’re also wrong. NATO does nothing, just like Germany. Your country’s history speaks volumes.
An Iranian offer? Pure Poppycock due to their unique fanatical steadfast destructive ideology and their historical delay tactics pertaining to negotiations.
Larry McDonald is absolutely correct.
President Trump doing the right thing. Iran Must never have a nuke and here are the reasons why:
As of early 2026, the IAEA said, Iran could produce enough weapons-grade fissile material for a single nuclear weapon in a matter of days or weeks, due to its large stockpile of uranium enriched up to 60% and advanced centrifuge capabilities.
A February 2026 IAEA report indicated Iran had nearly 441 kilograms of 60% enriched uranium, sufficient for nearly 10 nuclear weapons if enriched to 90%.
Iran has claimed to have developed and tested an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) with a range of up to 10,000 kilometers, which would theoretically allow it to reach targets across Europe and the continental United States.
Iranian leadership and ideologues have explicitly linked global chaos and conflict to the preparation for the return of the Twelfth Imam, the Mahdi. They believe they must ignite world conflagration and mayhem as a pre requisite in fulfilling their desire to have their 12 Imam return to the earth.
In Twelver Shia Islam, the 12th Imam, Muhammad al-Mahdi, is believed to be the Mahdi, the "Guided One," who will reappear at the end of time to establish global justice and peace. This belief is central to the doctrine of Mahdism, which holds that the 12th Imam entered a state of occultation (ghaybah) after his father’s death in 874 CE and remains hidden by divine will until God permits his reappearance.
* Ayatollah Mohammad Mehdi Mirbagheri, a senior Iranian cleric, stated on August 6, 2019: “In Order For the Hidden Imam to Reappear We Must Engage in Widespread Fighting with the West.” This directly frames conflict with the West as a necessary step toward the Mahdi’s reappearance.
Uniquely-dangerous-more-radical-than-his-father/* Hojatoleslam Ali Saeedi, former representative of the Supreme Leader to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), declared in 2012: “The IRGC is one of the tools for paving the way for the emergence of the Imam of the Age [Mahdi] in the field of a regional and international awakening.” This positions the IRGC’s military and political actions as instrumental in triggering the Mahdi’s return.
* Mehdi Taeb, a leading cleric and brother of the IRGC Intelligence Organization chief, stated in 2015: “Remove the obstacles to the emergence of the Imam of the Age, the most important of which is the existence of the usurper regime of Israel.” This identifies Israel as a key obstacle to the Mahdi’s return, justifying its eradication as a religious duty.
* The 2012 Iranian government manifesto, published by the Center for Strategic Studies, outlines a global transformation process that includes “emergence and uprising,” “invitation and struggle,” “victory of truth and destruction of evil,” and “domination of the world.” It explicitly states that “great wars” will occur after the Mahdi’s arrival, initiated by Western actions, and that “the discourse of liberal democracy” is the primary obstacle to the establishment of the Mahdi’s world government.
* Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, during his presidency, repeatedly called for the “hasty return” of the Mahdi and declared that the Islamic Republic’s mission was to “prepare for the establishment of a world government” under the Mahdi. He claimed the Mahdi would reappear in four years (2013), and framed the Iran-Iraq War as a practical application of Mahdism through the “love of the Mahdi’s representative, Khomeini.”
These statements and documents collectively reveal a state ideology that views global conflict, especially with the West and Israel, not as a threat, but as a divinely mandated precondition for the Mahdi’s return.
More proofs in particular recent proof and statements
Recent Iranian statements and ideological developments continue to affirm that global chaos and conflict are necessary to prepare for the return of the Twelfth Imam.
1. IRGC’s 2022 Doctrine: "Waiting Means Soldiering"
In March 2022, the IRGC published a doctrinal text stating: “Waiting means that we must prepare ourselves for soldiering in the army of Imam of the Age.” This redefines entezar-e faraj (waiting for relief) as active military and ideological preparation, not passive anticipation. The IRGC declared it must be on a “war footing” to fight “all centers of power and international corruption” before the Mahdi’s return.
* Hojatoleslam Haji-Sadeghi, Khamenei’s representative to the IRGC, reaffirmed in 2022: “The IRGC’s last responsibility is to prepare the world for the emergence of Imam of the Age.”
* This aligns with Ali Saeedi’s 2012 declaration that the IRGC is a tool for “regional and international awakening” ahead of the Mahdi’s return.
IRGC Mahdism doctrine 2022
2. Eradication of Israel as a Religious Duty
The belief that Israel’s destruction is a prerequisite for the Mahdi’s return has become mainstream within the IRGC.
* Mehdi Taeb, IRGC-linked cleric and brother of the IRGC Intelligence chief, stated in 2015: “The most important obstacle to the Imam of the Age’s emergence is the existence of the usurper regime of Israel.” This view is now widely echoed.
* The Middle East Institute (January 8, 2026) confirmed that the IRGC increasingly frames its regional actions—especially in Syria and Yemen—as fulfilling Shi’a prophecies about the Sufyani (a tyrant from Damascus) and the Yamani (a righteous leader from Yemen), both seen as precursors to the Mahdi.

3. Regional Conflicts as Apocalyptic Signposts
* The IRGC’s involvement in Syria and support for the Houthis in Yemen are explicitly justified as fulfilling religious prophecy.
* Ayatollah Mohammad Ali Mousavi Jazayeri, Khamenei’s representative in Khuzestan, claimed in 2026: “The presence of ISIS and chaos in Iraq are signs of the emergence of Sufiyani,” a key apocalyptic figure.
* The IRGC’s role in Syria is described as “laying the international and regional ground for the emergence of the Imam of the Age.”
Iran IRGC Mahdi prophecy
4. Supreme Leader Khamenei’s Indirect Endorsement
While Khamenei avoids direct apocalyptic rhetoric, his ideological framework supports it.
* He has long emphasized “active waiting” for the Mahdi, rejecting passive mourning in favor of “jihad in Allah’s way.”
* His representative, Saeedi, has consistently linked IRGC operations to Mahdist preparation, a doctrine Khamenei has never repudiated.
5. Nuclear Program and Apocalyptic Readiness
* Analysts note that Mahdism is a “blind spot” in Western understanding of Iran’s nuclear ambitions.
* The belief that “the hand of God is guiding” Iran’s leaders to trigger “cataclysmic events” persists, especially among younger, more radical IRGC generations.
* As Mohammad Reza Naghdi, a senior IRGC commander, stated in early 2026: “Our hard revenge will be the expulsion of the U.S. from the region and the eradication of the Zionist regime.”
Rituals and Beliefs: The IRGC emphasizes Mahdism, the belief in the eventual return of the 12th Imam (the Mahdi), and sees itself as preparing the world for his reappearance.
This worldview reinforces a "war footing" mentality, where military readiness is a spiritual obligation.
Events like the "International Conference on the Decline of the United States" held at Imam Hossein University (the IRGC’s academic arm) serve as political rituals reinforcing the belief that the IRGC is on the side of divine history.
Thank you! A well explained and documented explanation of the history of the Iranian revolution; the destruction of Israel is paramount to their goals above all else.
Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi publicly stated that Iran proposed mechanisms to guarantee "no nuclear weapons," but U.S. negotiators rejected it because the Americans were too low IQ, i.e., they "didn't grasp the technical details."
That is Iranian negotiators offered a way to prove they were not developing nuclear weapons, but it was deemed too "sophisticated" (or too technically complex) for the Americans to understand.
Araghchi posted on X (formerly Twitter): "Factual knowledge matters. Case 1: Iran's proposal to ensure NO NUCLEAR WEAPONS was dismissed because US counterparts didn't grasp the technical details."
This statement appeared in multiple news outlets around March 13-14 2026
In some cross-national.comparisons of mean IQ the Iranians, like the Communist Chinese, North Koreans and Russians score far, far higher than Americans so this seems at least plausible.
Oh yes, you’re absolutely right. The Americans are “too low IQ” compared to the rest of the world. That’s why America is the richest, strongest and most advanced nation on earth. Meanwhile, the countries you mentioned have the worst living standards and human rights violations on earth. Tens of thousands of Iranians have been killed by their own government and you want to claim they’re smarter? Please get off your high horse because your gaslighting isn’t working.
"Retarded" is the word that South African born Elon Musk agreed was appropriate to describe Americans when someone posted that Americans are too retarded to work in tech jobs. Elon is correct. The reason there's anything good about America is because of high IQ Indians on H-1B visas and other immigrants and foreigners, not necessarily including or excluding the millions that America invites to enter illegally through thesouthern border. Native born Americans are as dumb as dogshit. That's what the scores on reasoning and problem solving tests show. They grow up believing propaganda. The incarceration rate is the highest in the world and there are more psychopaths and serial killers than anywhere on earth.
SMH. “Appearing in news outlets” does not support your contention. Iran is being battered and is still unwilling to give up their nuclear ambitions. Many prior administrations have been fooled by “negotiations” and non existent “inspections.” (Not a fan of the war, but to claim that a deal could have been struck seems very shortsighted.)
Aside from the fact that you don’t negotiate with terrorists, or the fact that Iran has broken every ‘deal’ over the past 47 years, it’s interesting that Powell and the Guardian come out with this information, particularly as President Trump has already exposed the City of Landon’s/Loy’s involvement.in attempting to keep the conflict going. Next, Powell will say that Boris Johnson didn’t crater the Ukraine/Russia deal when he went to visit Zelensky.
Jan, you don’t negotiate with terrorists? Correct, you don’t negotiate with Zionists. And no, Iran has not “broken every ‘deal’ over the past 47 years” —- that is overtly delusional. But glad to see that you recognize Perfidious Albion for what it is —- perfidious. But your attempt to deflect blame from Trump for this war of aggression is bankrupt.
Zionism was created by the Jesuits in alliance with Freemasonry, originating from the Bavarian Illuminati and the
French Revolution.
The first Masonic Labor Zionist was Napoleon Bonaparte, guided by his Jesuit advisor Abbé Sieyès, who allegedly sought to make Palestine a Jewish homeland to benefit the Vatican.
The real purpose of modern Zionism, as he sees it, is to rebuild the Temple in Jerusalem for the Pope (the Antichrist), reviving the Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem (1099–1291) under Jesuit control.
He claims Theodor Herzl, the founder of modern political Zionism, was a Masonic Jewish Labor Zionist working under Jesuit direction, with the goal of establishing a Jewish state to serve the interests of Rome, not the Jewish people.
Phelps identifies six types of Zionists, with himself belonging to the fifth category: Calvinist Zionists, who support the right of ethnic Jews to live in Israel exclusively, advocating for the removal of Arabs and opposing non-Jewish presence.
Phelps' narrative frames Zionism as a Luciferian, Jesuit-controlled deception, not a genuine expression of Jewish national identity, and links it directly to the Vatican’s eschatological plans.
It was the Jesuits that incorporated zionism into Isreal as a manipulative philosophical too in order to weaken and control Isreal Consequently they expanded it into six forms of zionism eventually morphing it into ten. Unknown to most the Jesuits aka Society of Loyola have compartmentalized the USA into ten provincials
The ''Zionists'' have every LEGAL RIGHT to THE WHOLE AREA that was DEFINED in the PEACE SETTLEMENT negotiated post WW1 by none other than Lawrence of Arabia to ensure that THE ARAB TRIBES THAT FOUGHT for their FREEDOM FROM the OTTOMANS --and ONLY THOSE TRIBES-- were appropriately rewarded, LEAVING ALL THE REST to the ZIONIST JEWS planned to be coming... BOUGHT AND PAID FOR as negotiated for WW1 FUNDING of the WINNING SIDE.... ttyl
Another one of Iran’s “deals”? One they have no intention of honorably upholding? Another opportunity for us to drop pallets of cash on them, only to have them stab us in the back later? That kind of deal? The kind where they fund Hezbollah with the cash we send them? Deal? Or appeasement?
" One they have no intention of honorably upholding? "
I guess we will never know, because we always break our word and attack while negotiating... to the "untrained" eye, looks almost like WE don't want peace... just oil.
Your reading skills appear failing... Go back and read JJJ about the Iranian LYING about not prepping for war....
Specifically...
PHYSICALLY OVER 400lb of near weapons grade already in Feb 2025.... AND the rate they worked their enrichment centrifuges was rapidly increasing that stash.... against the reality that nuke for energy is ONLY 3%-4%.... not 60%....
Try again...
And while you're re-reading JJJ, focus on the PSYCHOPATHIC MINDSET of the Iranian top leadership and envision just how far any smooth-for-service negotiator's assurances would go once the ink was on paper.... ROTFLMHO...
You’re delusional. Iran was in full compliance with the JCPOA before Trump tore it up. Iran enriched to 60% as a deterrent, but had no plans to go further and produce a nuclear weapon. But after this boneheaded war of aggression and the assassination of Khamenei Sr., they may now proceed to do so.
Powell was probably also surprised when Lucy offered to hold the football for Charlie Brown one more time, promising not to pull it away this time. You have to be incredibly naive or purposely obtuse to believe that the Iranians were actually going to make a deal to give up their nukes.
Virtually everyone in the mideast knows you cannot trust deals with the mullahs or Islamic Council. How many times do we need to learn that lesson? Kent is as big a jerk as Jonathan Powell.
No. We attacked during endless negotiations because we finally wised up to the reality negotiations to Iran are merely armament opportunities. The Islamic Council just opened the Hormuz Straits. Not because of negotiations, because Trump threatened Khag Island depots.
Well Doctor, you just switched the discussion, so first the negotiation. A negotiation between two people who ultimately want peace looks much different from one in which your adversary has sworn your annihilation. To you and I and most reasonable people we negotiate in good faith. But the Islamic Guard Council only sees negotiation as a preamble to destruction. As for who is winning, the operable term is "winning". This is not over and only then will we know who "won" and what that neans to differing people. IMO, Trump is doing what is necessary only because we have failed for 47 years to address the issues including murder of Americans. Now Trump has to clean up the mess and it's not pretty..Who will win? Pracrically, I imagine the U.S. and the American people will win. Time will tell. Best to you!
Well go tell your ''joke'' to the formerly free Lebanese, or the other Christian, Coptic etc areas in the region who tried playing chess with the Muslims they faced..... ttyl
The Iranian government lies, and Joe Kent did not think Iran was a threat. I thank him for his service, am sad that he lost his wife to ISIS, but am glad he resigned.
I was gonna say the same thing. Why does Trump send Bibi’s lackeys (to put it mildly) a real estate developer Witkoff and investor Kushner to basically negotiate for Israel? I answered my own question.
Same here. I thought he served us well during his first term even though he was constrained by all that legal hoopla. Now I believe it was all staged theater to get/keep us divided. And it doesn’t matter who gets selected, I mean elected, they’re all different feathers of the same bird with the eventual desired outcome.
with no background or proven skill in political science negotiating instead backgrounds in real estate and investments. Makes sense when there’s a future Gaza riviera to develop.
The odds are most ignorant to the dynamics happening as to the interconnected issues and the initiatives by President Trump invoking the Caribbean and The Persian Gulf and a broad spectrum of competing worldly elements and nations like China, Russia,, The Dutch, Columbia, Cuba, Drug Cartels, Mexico, Venezuelan, Serbia, Germany, Panaama canal and a voting scam network starting with Hugo Chavez Diabold Machines voting machine scams and servers being moved Serbia and Germany usurping and not to mention Trumps plan to prevent USA from being denied rare earth minerals bt China USA elections and the Rothschild Banking system proxy running cover for The Jesuits etc etc. Here is only part of it from Hal Turner which supports only a small part of what Alexandra Bruce and Michael You has been expounding starting months. TAKE A LOOK AT LINK below which gives only a limited perspective of the above mentioned
The Iranians are liars and masters of deception. They smile in your face and will stab you in the back as soon as you turn around. There were no “deals”, just another spin on the merry go round to give them more time to develop a nuclear weapon. The attack on Iran was the right decision. The UK is truly lost with their current leadership and they are becoming worse than China or North Korea regarding freedom of speech.
You are describing Israel and their diabolical behavior in the last 6 decades. Fooling US presidents and its people to do their bidding.
Yes of course how could I forget? Let’s blame the Jews for living in the Middle East while Iran publicly states they will wipe the country off the map? You mean that country? Why should they worry while Iran proxies like Hamas and Hezbollah do their bidding to terrorize the Jewish people? So finally Israel and the US do something about it and you want to complain? It only took them 47 years to finally do something and if it wasn’t for Trump it wouldn’t have happened. Iran had plenty of chances to stand down and now it’s too late.
No, they didn't. Bloodthirsty Israel wanted the war and now they have it.
Hating Israel doesn’t change facts. You’re entitled to your opinion but you’re also wrong. NATO does nothing, just like Germany. Your country’s history speaks volumes.

And while you're re-reading JJJ, focus on the PSYCHOPATHIC MINDSET of the Iranian top leadership and envision just how far any smooth-for-service negotiator's assurances would go once the ink was on paper.... ROTFLMHO...
ttyl
You’re delusional. Iran was in full compliance with the JCPOA before Trump tore it up. Iran enriched to 60% as a deterrent, but had no plans to go further and produce a nuclear weapon. But after this boneheaded war of aggression and the assassination of Khamenei Sr., they may now proceed to do so.
Dead On Accurate.pertaining to Trump. No not in compliance. They wete preparing at least 11 Nukes
Powell was probably also surprised when Lucy offered to hold the football for Charlie Brown one more time, promising not to pull it away this time. You have to be incredibly naive or purposely obtuse to believe that the Iranians were actually going to make a deal to give up their nukes.
Virtually everyone in the mideast knows you cannot trust deals with the mullahs or Islamic Council. How many times do we need to learn that lesson? Kent is as big a jerk as Jonathan Powell.
... I guess this is why we attacked them while "negotiating"... TWICE? Because WE are trustworthy?
No. We attacked during endless negotiations because we finally wised up to the reality negotiations to Iran are merely armament opportunities. The Islamic Council just opened the Hormuz Straits. Not because of negotiations, because Trump threatened Khag Island depots.
... and I guess we are "winning"... big...
Right, Mr. Monster, Sir?
Well Doctor, you just switched the discussion, so first the negotiation. A negotiation between two people who ultimately want peace looks much different from one in which your adversary has sworn your annihilation. To you and I and most reasonable people we negotiate in good faith. But the Islamic Guard Council only sees negotiation as a preamble to destruction. As for who is winning, the operable term is "winning". This is not over and only then will we know who "won" and what that neans to differing people. IMO, Trump is doing what is necessary only because we have failed for 47 years to address the issues including murder of Americans. Now Trump has to clean up the mess and it's not pretty..Who will win? Pracrically, I imagine the U.S. and the American people will win. Time will tell. Best to you!
This reminds me of an old joke:
"- Why aren't you playing chess with your friend anymore?
- Well, would you play chess with someone who gets angry when loosing, curses and threatens with physical violence?
- No!
- Well, neither would he!"
Best to you too, my friend :)...
Well go tell your ''joke'' to the formerly free Lebanese, or the other Christian, Coptic etc areas in the region who tried playing chess with the Muslims they faced..... ttyl
It shouldn't.
The Iranian government lies, and Joe Kent did not think Iran was a threat. I thank him for his service, am sad that he lost his wife to ISIS, but am glad he resigned.
Oh yeah, because we can trust that Iran would keep any deal! Garbage!
The US couldn't go along with a reasonable agreement with Iran, thus the reason Trump didn't even try.
A non-war solution was never in the cards for the US. It's obvious who really runs US foreign policy.
...and we should believe the BBC and The Guardian and The British Empire, oh and the Mullahs... Have I got a bridge to sell you!
Why the Hell is Kushner in these meetings at all?
I was gonna say the same thing. Why does Trump send Bibi’s lackeys (to put it mildly) a real estate developer Witkoff and investor Kushner to basically negotiate for Israel? I answered my own question.
I'm so hacked off with Trump right now.
I have defended him against the liberal bullshit and believed him to be a good man trying to do the right thing.
Now he has utterly destroyed any legacy he may have had and seems oblivious to that fact.
The Israelis must have made him an offer he was unable to refuse, as the alternative appears to be just abject stupidity.
Same here. I thought he served us well during his first term even though he was constrained by all that legal hoopla. Now I believe it was all staged theater to get/keep us divided. And it doesn’t matter who gets selected, I mean elected, they’re all different feathers of the same bird with the eventual desired outcome.
Because he utilizes people he can trust.
with no background or proven skill in political science negotiating instead backgrounds in real estate and investments. Makes sense when there’s a future Gaza riviera to develop.
The odds are most ignorant to the dynamics happening as to the interconnected issues and the initiatives by President Trump invoking the Caribbean and The Persian Gulf and a broad spectrum of competing worldly elements and nations like China, Russia,, The Dutch, Columbia, Cuba, Drug Cartels, Mexico, Venezuelan, Serbia, Germany, Panaama canal and a voting scam network starting with Hugo Chavez Diabold Machines voting machine scams and servers being moved Serbia and Germany usurping and not to mention Trumps plan to prevent USA from being denied rare earth minerals bt China USA elections and the Rothschild Banking system proxy running cover for The Jesuits etc etc. Here is only part of it from Hal Turner which supports only a small part of what Alexandra Bruce and Michael You has been expounding starting months. TAKE A LOOK AT LINK below which gives only a limited perspective of the above mentioned

Is it wide-eyed naivete or just another manifestation of chronic TDS? Hard to tell.
The TDS is strong in this one.
Hell yes it is.

Since the deal is off why not give us the details of the offer????
The only thing corroborated by the Guardian is the British / Royals’ / Bankers’ strategy of keeping countries in conflict with each other while they pilfer the resources from said lands. Too bad neither you nor Joe Kent (who I otherwise respect greatly) sees this or take it into account. Maybe this will help: https://rumble.com/v777ads-exposed-trump-and-russia-point-to-the-same-enemy-britains-empire-is-finishe.html
