Trump pressured by allies stop all peace negotiations with Iran

Despite publicly appearing defiant about Iran peace negotiations, President Donald Trump is allegedly backing away from a deal with Iran under extreme internal pressure from Israel and its domestic allies, according to Israeli-American academic Shaiel Ben-Ephraim.

Ben-Ephraim cited sources indicating Trump is reconsidering the agreement, describing it as a "terrifying turn of events."

Washington and Tehran have already agreed in principle on a deal to end the U.S. war against Iran, though finalization remains pending, The New York Times reports. But prominent right-wing figures including former CIA Director Mike Pompeo, Senators Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Lindsey Graham (R-SC), and Trump ally Laura Loomer have urged Trump to abandon negotiations.

Loomer claimed there is "no such thing as peace with Muslims" and urged bombing Iran's regime on X.

Bloomberg reported Trump faces both internal and external pressure, specifically from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and media mogul Rupert Murdoch.

On Saturday, Trump said there's a "50/50" chance of authorizing military strikes, according to reports by Axios.
