And their next objective, after their smashing success against Trump, is this: “We now need to make the Americans understand that Israel is the evil force in the Middle East. That is our goal.”
This goal has already been largely accomplished.

“IRGC Head Boasts They ‘Brought Trump to His Knees,'” by Dror Balazada, C14 News, June 23, 2026:
Exclusive quotes from closed-door conversations among Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps commanders reveal Iranian officials believe they’ve outmaneuvered the U.S. in negotiations—a starkly different picture from what the Trump administration is presenting publicly.
As the first round of U.S.-Iran negotiations under the memorandum of understanding wrapped up today (Tuesday), Channel 14 obtained dramatic quotes from closed-door conversations among senior Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) officials—revealing a deeply troubling picture that contradicts what American officials are telling the press.
According to our sources, IRGC Commander Ahmad Vahidi and other senior officials are convinced Iran is the big winner of the current talks. “We brought President Trump to his knees; we got what we wanted. As usual, the foolish West believes it’s getting something from us in return— which, of course, will never happen,” Vahidi was quoted as saying.
Vahidi was also quoted declaring he’s aware the Strait of Hormuz issue is significant leverage over Trump, exposing the Revolutionary Guards’ deception and their real strategy toward the American administration. “Right now, the goal is to keep the Americans on a short leash. Any violation, even the smallest one, no matter who commits it, will allow us to threaten to close the Strait of Hormuz, and Trump and his people will, of course, agree to anything,” he said.
The closed-door conversations also reveal the Iranians have no intention of using funds from the deal the way Americans expect—in complete contradiction to Vice President Vance’s statements just yesterday. “Trump thinks we’ll waste the money he gives us buying goods from the United States. That will never happen in our lifetime.”
Additionally, Iran’s next target was exposed: portraying Israel as the “bad actor” in the Middle East, with a clear goal of damaging its standing in the eyes of the world. “We now need to make the Americans understand that Israel is the evil force in the Middle East. That is our goal.”…
Rick Gordon says
His comments solidify the stupidity of negotiations with the IRGC. They only understand force. Any verbal communication is useless as they will ignore any result.

😥 Historically, you’re right.THE UN IS ARAB DOMINANT & “Waiting 100 years” ,like Cina; to IMMIGRATE: (QUR’AN STRATEGY, KORAN). INFILTRATE, VOTE WITH MULTIPLE WIVES, CHILDREN & DEATH IF NOT MUSLIM.
Wellington says
The goal from the beginning should have been above all other goals the total elimination of the hideous regime which has run Iran since 1979. From everything I can see to date, Trump missed this. I wish he hadn’t.
Bob Gold says
Israel is at fault for its lack of thoughtfulness and generosity. Time for donations of cellphones, beepers, walkie talkies, and electronically enhanced goats 🐐, camels🐫 donkeys 🫏 and other playthings and vehicles to the IRGC and other needy Iranian ruling class. Also food enhancements. Let’s go Mossad!
Westman says
Wars are usually fought until one or both sides are sufficiently hurt and and realize continuance is fatal.
The religionists of Iran pose a special problem in that they are convinced Allah, who never shows up, will reward their aggression, whether living or dying in the process.
In the war with Japan, the conflict was ended, not by defeating the public, rather, changing the attitude of the ruler by destroying sufficient populace and their belief in the legitimacy of the ruler as a demi-god and spokesman for God. Hirohito was smart enough to realize if the nuclear bombs continued to fall, he would be killed by his own citizens as a religious fraud.
The blood-thirsty Iranian Regime is a fraud without question, more of a religious mafia who claim the authority of God to torture and kill citizens to maintain their power. Like Japan, the use of a great evil is the only action that is successful in unseating fraudulent religious masters. When and who will brave the censure of the do-nothings to remove the Iranian cancer is unknown but necessary. In general, 80% of the world would not miss Iran if it no longer existed. That is a terrible legacy.

There is a saying, “It’s always darkest before the dawn.”
When I was a child on the farm, I saw this on so many mornings, year after year, getting up in the early A.m., to go to the fields, to begin work in the dark. Just before the sun begins to spread its light, it is so very dark, nearly impossible to see anything. Picking strawberries by their feel, something learned by repeated experience. The proof of doing it right, comes with the light.
In life, there are many symbolic examples of this Truth. It’s looking pretty dark right now on the political horizon, when, even if we are not political, actions and bragging words affect us all for good or bad.
Seeing muzzlims in the U.S. gaining so much political power, and reading of the things from iran, can make it very dark out there.
But, I firmly believe a “dawn” is coming.
Taffy says
But, in every era in the US Army, a soldier had to be a le to field strip his issued rifle and put it back together again in total darkness, from the M1 Garand, M/2 carbine, to the M-16, to modern issue rifles. It is a good skill to have even for civilian rifles.
Ahmad, you talk too much. I do believe that you moved to the top of the IDF/Mossad assassination list to get an express trip to Allah. away hello to the Ayatollah and Solamanei for me!
Tim gallagher says
I hope you’re right, taffy. Go Israel, keep exterminating these scum of the earth Iranians. Still plenty that need to be sent off to hell.
Horatio says
It has been obvious for a long time that Trump has been against regime change in Iran. The only explanation is that he likes the regime and wants to keep it in power.
Walter Sieruk says
When President Trump had adamantly declared that he “would only accept unconditional surrender from the Islamic Republic of Iran” He still thought of a good and strong President by many patriotic Americas. Most likely such Americans didm’t think that he would “cave in ” to influences and pressures put on him to just ‘Throw the towel ” and up the war against that dangerous and belligerent tyranny by adopting a type of Obama/ Biden policy of appeasement to that agressive combative hostile regime of Iran which hates both America and Israel with a spiteful Islamic passion. Therefore, Trump isn’t really a good President but a weak one.
Walter Sieruk says
The message of the title of a Pamela Geller article is has it so very is right on the mark ,that it be repeated, which is ”THE BEST DEAL WITH IRAN IS NO DEAL AT ALL.”
The reason why this is so is because any so deal with those still in power in that dangerous hostile menacing liars is daydream a, fantasy a fiction and a farce. In other words, it would be a “peace agreement.” that is would be bogus, a false peace, because it would be based on ta foundation of sand. It would be completely worthless, with no value at all.
To put this a different sort of way. Any kind of a “deal” with that dangerous hostile and menacing Islamic regime of Iran is a bad deal. Those deceptive disingenuous lair who are still in power of that belligerent tyranny will not be worth of paper that they might sign on that so called “peace agreement. ” They will no intention of keeping any of the promises that they agree to sign.
If that tyrannical Islamic is allowed to continue to exist it will restart its weapons manufacture system to attack American bases and the State of Israel. It would further supply Hamas and Hezbollah with deadly weapons. They will also come down severely hard in the most brutal cruel malicious and vicious ways on the patriotic good decent Iranian protesters who had been only after a genuine government that would ensure and respect the natural basic human rights of its citizens
Walter Sieruk says
Treacherous Trump Is very wrong to want any type of deal, likewise truce or any kind of “peace agreement” with those disingenuous liars who would have no real intention of keeping their word on any document that they might sign. Therefore, the words that they would sign wouldn’t be worth that paper that have printed on such a document. It would be hoax. Those in power in that Islamic regime are just as dangerous hostile and menacing as those despots who in Iranian regime who had been killed this this war started.
Moreover its very sad but that President Trump seems to be beguiled, as in deceived, by those liars of the dangerous and hostile Islamic regime of Iran. It’s very strange that Trump doesn’t understand that any document for “peace” which those despots of that tyranny will sign isn’t worth the paper that It’s printed on
Walter Sieruk says
President Trump had totally failed to follow the instruction of Sun Tzu who is known the be the author of the book THE ART OF WAR in regarding any attempted so called “peace agreement negotiations” with those tyrants of that Islamic regime of Iran.
For in strategic manual of military wisdom instructs, “We cannot enter into an alliance with neighboring princes until we are acquainted with their designs.” To rephrase and update this information for this current situation in the Middle East with those lying dictators of Iran. It may be actually said, “We cannot enter into a genuine peace agreement alliance with those still in power in that Islamic regime until we know the schemes of their real intentions.”
It really should be more than obvious that the designs /schemes of those fiendish villains are.
Walter Sieruk says
It’s amazing how President Trump can be so very naive as to think that he might be able to come to some of “deal” of any worth with those disingenuous and outright lying despots of that diabolical “mullah regime’ of Iran . They their fiendish treachery, are liars and will have no intention of keeping of the promises that they might make.. In other words, any agreement they sign their names to wouldn’t be worth the paper it’s written on . It would be a farce and hoax of a deal , Trump should know better than to trust them, in any way..
Annemarie says
It appears Gen. Vahidi is the real power in the regime now. A shame that the mainstream media here is not mentioning the power of his role in negotiations. Is he even a signatory to the MOU or any final “deal”? His persistent desperation to control and squeeze money from shipping through the Strait of Hormuz probably stems from a financial collapse of the IRGC’s vast business network throughout the economy. Consider his loss of face if Iran’s evil proxies are left destitute. Who will have the final say in these matters – Trump or Vahidi? Not only do these fanatic theocrats have a hidden Mahdi, now they have a hidden Ayatollah.
JD1999 says
Annemarie, President Trump has reiterated several times that we would try to negotiate in a civilized manner. He has also said he will essentially vaporize the IRGC if need be. I agree that there is a huge financial collapse of the regime in Iran. Our government is letting them run their mouths. The silence and lack of response should evoke some common sense and fear from Iran, which indicates sudden destruction will fall upon the heads of the muzzies when the US has had enough and swats that fly away.
Annemarie says
Well I just hope he doesn’t announce his intentions like bombing the dual-use bridges which resulted in hundreds of chador-wearing women and children forming human shields around the target infrastructure. Also, if Trump knew the the concept of taqqiya he might have realized how insecure his deal-making might be.
Walter Sieruk says
If that tyrannical Islamic is allowed to continue to exist it will restart its weapons manufacture system to attack American bases and the State of Israel. It would further supply Hamas and Hezbollah with deadly weapons. They will also come down severely hard in the most brutal cruel malicious and vicious ways on the patriotic good decent Iranian protesters who had been only after a genuine government that would ensure and respect the natural basic human rights of its citizens.
President Trump and the United States Congress and the heads of the Pentagon along this the head commanders US military of all the branches of the US . Should be very much aware that, in spite of those so-called “talks” with representatives of the Islamic regime of Iran. The intentions of despots still in power in that tyrannical e bellicose , hostile towards America as ever , since it began in the year 1979. As observed in one of its constant themes is “Death to the USA.”
Therefore it should be made known and clear that if the founder of the current Islamic tyranny ,Ayatollah Khomeini would still be alive today ,he would spit on those Westerners who say that “Islam is a non-violent religion.”
If Ayatollah Khomeini had clearly announced that “Those who know nothing about Islam pretend that Islam counsels against war….There are hundreds psalms and hadiths urging of Muslims to value war and to fight. …I spit upon those foolish souls who make such a claim.” [1] So if he was alive today who would spit on those Westerners who say that “Islam is a non-violent religion.” [1]
There are also many places in the Qu ‘ran that instruct in violence and killing for the cause of Islam. As found in ,for example Surah 2:191. 4:89.. 5:33. 9:5, 111,112 ,123. 47:4.

Dems should start running videos of him saying this in their campaign ads, asking voters what exactly did US achieve in getting into this war. Don’t touch Israel’s motives, however
This assumes that the Israelis or Iranian dissidents don’t take out Vahidi b/w now and November
Greg says
You got squat!
jimjames says
listen to these heathens who totally lack a moral compass and understand they deserve no quarter! In the end they maybe stand for devastation more than bolsheviks!
Namer says
“We brought President Trump to his knees. We got what we wanted.”
If that were true then why are they the ones with the dirty knees.
JtotheBGood says
This idiot, Trump, has once again repeated the same crap as “idiot Dubya” did in Iraq. A middle eastern country cannot be attacked without removing the current regime and installing a new one, favorable one the West. Can’t be done you say, then don’t f’ing attack! NO one in Trump’s inner circle is/was allowed to disagree with this pompous pos, and now we’re in a HUGE pile o’ dung that has NO end in sight other than leveling the entire country. He screwed the proverbial pooch on this one and there is NO other way out.
salemforjerusalem says
They are simply holding until their friends and allies the democrats have enough power to come to their aid.
It’s time to drop a MOAB down the well.
Gregory says
Unfortunately, Trump has zero understanding of Islam. He thinks he can make a good deal. The tactic of the mullahs is to drag this out to the election and afterwards. Unfortunately, the House will become Democrat in November, and probably the Senate. Then impeachment. Too bad Trump can’t just destroy the entire regime and IRGC. But he thinks that is bad publicity. Anyway, we have lost.
Garry Pollack says
Its time we admit defeat & surrender to the mullahs!

You can put on your trunks and swim over to surrender. I, for one, never will surrender to the evil of islime….in iran or othewise.

Patrick says
President Trump is compromised by Islam/terrorist Muslims he invited to the White House. Al Sharaa of Syria, the Prince of Saudi Arabia, any Muslim country the U.S. deals with, regards Trump, is peaceful and negotiable, which is TOTALLY WRONG!. President Trump doesn’t know crap about the dangers of Islam, the Quran, Hadiths of Muhammad, taqiyya, multiple types of jihad, kidnapping, slavery, and totalitarianism. President Trump, please hire Robert Spencer for crash course on Islam, STOP telling Israel what to do!
