Iranian hardline protesters are chanting that their leaders are weak and pathetic if they agree to Trump’s deal, even though Trump’s deal sucks for the United States and achieved nothing that couldn’t be achieved diplomatically.
The chanters are asking what about the blood of their former leader who Israel and the United States assassinated. They are demanding no deals but victory against the countries who assassinated their leader.

The Iran war caused the hardliners to have more power in Iran, making them less likely to negotiate and give in on any deal.

The two-state solution seems dead. After the second intifada, Israel gave up on it, and has resolved on a one-state solution where Israel dominates the entire territory and Palestinians not living in Israel proper are second-class citizens.
The October 7th terrorist attacks accelerated this. They don’t see the Islamist terrorists as deterrable, so the only option is to dominate them. They can’t make peace because a small group of terrorists can always explode any peace.

Israel made a hard sell for the war to Trump. Trump bought it, even though many of his advisers were skeptical of Israel’s arguments.
