Despite a Western focus on France, the UK, and now Canada and Portugal agreeing to recognize Palestinian sovereignty, it's THIS move by powerful Middle Eastern nations that matters most.

Carrot: Condemnation and disavowal of Hamas.
Stick: Palestinian statehood.

M23 offenses continue in the Congo, despite the signing of a preliminary agreement widely heralded as a peace deal with Kinshasa.

As we explained on Situation Room, the agreement is far from a true guarantee to end the fighting, with several likely points of failure.

Another very fragile ceasefire, this one in Syria.
There are basically five factions here:
-Druze armed militias
-Bedouin armed militias
-Syrian security forces
-Syrian government-allied, potential rogue actors
-Israel

For a local peace to hold, ALL FIVE must participate.

Despite all the talk of the Rwanda-DRC peace deal a few weeks ago, this is the ceasefire arrangement that really matters.

Ceasefires in the Congo are broken easily and often; let's hope this one can avoid that same fate.

Trump says US bombed three Iran nuclear sites, including Fordow President Donald Trump said Saturday the US military has carried out a "very successful attack" on three Iranian nuclear sites, including the underground uranium enrichment facility at Fordow. "We have completed our very successful attack on the three Nuclear sites in Iran, including Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan," Trump said in a post on his Truth Social platform.

Trump says US bombed three Iran nuclear sites, including Fordow

If past predicts future, this would indicate an American strike much sooner than two weeks from now.

Remember, US and Israeli signals that an attack wasn't coming for a few more days, immediately preceded the launch of Israel's first wave of strikes on June 13.
