We get an update on the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran from journalist Negar Mortazavi, following the Pentagon\u2019s so-called self-defense strikes on two Iranian ships in the Strait of Hormuz Monday despite an official ceasefire and ongoing peace negotiations. The \u201cchaotic\u201d ceasefire \u201chas been violated from day one,\u201d says Mortazavi, who notes that Israel\u2019s continuous attacks on southern Lebanon are delaying attempts to end the war \u2014 and that this is exactly the intention of the Israeli government. \u201cClearly, Netanyahu doesn\u2019t want this war with Iran to end,\u201d she says. \u201cEvery step of escalation is definitely going to harm the final outcome and narrow the path to a final agreement.\u201d Mortazavi also comments on the new political reality for Iran\u2019s Gulf neighbors in the aftermath of Iranian strikes on U.S. military bases hosted in the region. \u201cThe Iranian message is: If war comes to us, it will not stay inside our borders.\u201d<\/p>\n
