US-Iran Deal Takes Shape — Israel Sidelined, Furious, and Preparing to Act Alone

A final peace text between the US and Iran is agreed, Pakistan confirmed — as senior Israeli officials privately say they were “screwed” and Trump told Netanyahu it’s time for the war to end. Iran is simultaneously booby-trapping its nuclear sites and firing drones toward Strait of Hormuz shipping, even as the deal nears closure.

• Pakistan confirmed a final peace text is agreed between the US and Iran, with Iran meeting Washington’s main conditions including nuclear constraints and Strait of Hormuz reopening.
• Trump told Netanyahu directly that it’s time for the war to end — senior Israeli officials told Channel 12 they were privately “screwed” by the terms.
• Iran’s IRGC has been booby-trapping nuclear site tunnel entrances with explosive mines while simultaneously firing drones toward Hormuz shipping — escalating even as the deal approaches.
• A final deal on missiles, proxies, and sanctions relief is to be negotiated in the 60 days following the MOU agreement.
• Netanyahu convened the security cabinet Sunday evening as Israel weighs its options with diminishing leverage.

The moment the MOU lands, Iran locks in its nuclear preservation posture while the deal framework constrains Israeli options. Israel is being presented with a fait accompli — not a seat at the table — and the private language from Israeli officials ('screwed') signals the gap between Trump's framing and Jerusalem's operational reality.

NYPD data shows anti-Jewish hate crimes up 150% in May under Mayor Mamdani — who has twice changed how the city reports hate crimes since a 182% January spike. Five days before the June 23 primary, Bernie Sanders will headline a Mamdani rally for his anti-Israel congressional slate: Brad Lander, Claire Valdez, and Darializa Avila Chevalier.

• NYPD data shows 150% increase in anti-Jewish hate crimes in May 2026 vs. May 2025 on a ‘reported’ metric — the city publicized only the 70.8% ‘confirmed’ figure.
• Mamdani has changed hate crime reporting methodology twice since January’s 182% surge, drawing accusations of statistical manipulation.
• Sen. Bernie Sanders will headline a Kings Theater rally June 19 for Mamdani’s congressional picks — Lander (CD-12), Valdez (CD-7), and Avila Chevalier (CD-13) — five days before the primary.
• All three Mamdani-endorsed candidates oppose US military aid to Israel; Avila Chevalier has defended attending an Oct. 8 rally that celebrated the Hamas massacre.

Sanders giving his brand to Mamdani's full slate five days out is a closing-stretch signal about where the national progressive coalition is positioning on Israel heading into the primary. The hate crime data is the backdrop: Mamdani's first six months in office have coincided with a surge in anti-Jewish violence, and his reporting changes make the accountability picture harder to track.
