Israeli-Iranian war not over; it has just entered a dangerous pause

“The headlines may proclaim a ceasefire, but let us be clear: the Israeli-Iranian war is far from over. What we are witnessing is not peace; it is a tactical intermission. The guns may be momentarily silent, but the war remains alive in motive, method, and mindset. President Donald Trump’s June 23 announcement of ‘a complete and total ceasefire’ between Israel and Iran brought a welcome pause to twelve days of deadly escalation. Yet his own remarks in the hours that followed, including en route to the NATO summit, betrayed the precarious nature of that agreement — and the volatility of the players involved. Just before boarding Air Force One, Trump issued a pointed public rebuke: ‘Calm down, Israel!’ He warned Prime Minister Benajamin Netanyahu that any strike against Iran after the ceasefire’s effective hour would constitute a violation.” (06/25/25)
