US President Donald Trump confirmed that Vice President JD Vance wrote to Mohsen Rezaei, secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, ahead of the midterm elections.

US President Donald Trump confirmed that Vice President JD Vance wrote to Mohsen Rezaei, secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, days before the midterm elections, under what the author calls a delusion of peace negotiations. The article argues that Rezaei, a former IRGC commander and alleged terrorist, should not be engaged diplomatically. It claims Rezaei was involved in the AMIA bombing and prolonged the Iran-Iraq War, and that the CIA has long known of his corruption and ties to terrorism. The author asserts that the regime is a paper tiger run by IRGC terrorists and that Trump's threats to resume bombing are ignored. The piece criticizes the White House for what it calls a shameful and futile diplomatic initiative.
