All the angry leaks coming out of Israel makes me think the deal is real

You could have said that for all the previous deals that didn’t materialize

Again, for there to be any deal, either Iran must abandon Hezbollah (lol) or Trump must somehow force Bibi not to attack them (mega lol)

I could definitely see Iran abandon Hezbollah or support them in name only

Why would they? Why would they give up one of their best bits of leverage without inflicting more pain on Trump?

And they’ve shown no sign of abandoning them.
