Donald Trump has gone silent as Iran is rejecting his ceasefire proposal. Iran says that they just believe it is another trick. They have no interest in negotiating with Donald Trump or his regime unless Donald Trump agrees to full reparations from this war against Iran. And there are strong security guarantees that the United States and Israel will not attack and invade Iran again. Iran is also demanding that the United States and Israel essentially remove all military bases from the region. To which the Trump regime, I guess, has responded after claiming there was going to be these powerful cease fire talks by removing everything from Donald Trump's schedule today. Look at Donald Trump's revised schedule today. It consists of executive time and meetings closed to the press the entire day. Now, Caroline Levitt is purportedly holding a press conference shortly which we will be covering here, covering here on the Midas Touch Network. But as it relates to Donald Trump, he's going to go MIA today as we have thousands of troops heading to the Middle East. Expect it to arrive in the next 24 to 48 hours for a possible ground invasion. And folks, despite what you hear from Donald Trump and his regime, it's important to observe what is happening in the region. Iran still controls the Strait of Hormuz. They've now created basically a toll system where they're making controlling the Strait of Hormuz. There is still an escalating war taking place right there. LNG liquefied natural gas is running in very short supply. Qatar Energy just declared a force majeure, as have a lot of the main companies in these Arab nations. There is a lack of supply of fertilizer that's now being exported. Helium is not being exported. We have major, major issues and as you know, costs are going up. And Donald Trump just continues to try to manipulate the market here, both overtly in what he's posting and saying and what his regime is posting and saying. And especially when they go on financial programs. And behind the scenes, it seems that Trump and His regime, especially with an SEC that doesn't enforce anything, are looking to manipulate the markets by having people participate in market activity that has the power of trying to control markets. But ultimately in the long run, it's going to backfire when you do manipulation like that. Just take a look at what Iran state regime media is saying. Iran does not accept the ceasefire. Fundamentally, entering such a process with those who have violated their commitments is not logical. It's a statement coming right from Iranian tv, from the Islamic Republic, also on their regime media. They say the Islamic Republic of Iran insists on the fulfillment of its strategic objectives in confronting the hostile front. Only if those objectives are achieved would an end to the war, not merely a ceasefire, be possible. And Iran has reviewed the American proposal for a ceasefire and considers it excessive. Iran says its defensive operations will continue until its conditions are met. The first condition for ending the war is a halt to attacks and assassination. Tehran has conveyed through a regional intermediary that it will continue defending itself. Iran also says it will not allow Trump to dictate the timing of the war's end. One of the things we learned today through a really strong NBC exclusive is that the way Donald Trump has been getting his information about the war has been through 2 minute highlight or hype reels that his team prepares for him to pretend that the war is going great. So they just clip together two minutes of US and Israel bombing things and blowing things up. They show that to him. They don't give him any other information, he doesn't ask for any other information. And this is how he's being briefed on the war. So Trump is getting a daily two minute highlight reel of the successful US strikes in Iran, basically explosions and wins, raising concerns that he may not be getting the full picture of the war, setbacks included. NBC was the first to break that story. So as we wrote on the Midas Touch network, they're literally editing the war down to wins only so he doesn't react badly. Think about how insane that is for a commander in chief and how dangerous that is for the world. Meanwhile, the head of Iran's parliament, MB Galliboff, posted the following message this morning. We are closely monitoring all US Movements in the region, especially troop deployments. What the generals have broke, the soldiers can fix. Instead, they will fall victim to Netanyahu's delusions. Do not test our resolve to defend our land. Just 24 hours ago, Donald Trump and his regime were saying this guy, M.B. gollabe, the president of Iran's parliament, was their, quote, hot option to become the new leader of Iran as the Trump proxy the way Donald Trump has the authoritarian Delsey Rodriguez running Venezuela. It's what the Trump regime was telling Politico. They're hot. He's hot. He's hot and big. Are you listening to what this guy's writing and saying? Meanwhile, Turkey has been pressing Gulf Arab states not to join the US And Israel and war against Iran. Ankara has been urging Saudi Arabia, the uae, Qatar and others show restraint through intensive diplomatic outreach. Do not join Netanyahu's war, as Turkey's leader, Erdogan, has continuously been calling this war. Iran's president, Masoud Pizeschien, responded to Turkey's leader by saying, the resolute position of my brother Erdogan, president of Turkey, and condemning the warmongering Zionist regime are commendable. The proud nation of our friendly and brotherly country of Turkey has for many years steadfastly played a role in, in solidarity with the aspirations of the Islamic Ummah. By the grace of God, we will traverse this proud path together. As I also said, don't listen to the words. Watch and observe what's actually happening. An Iranian missile hit near an industrial area in Negev, Israel. The target was likely the Rotem industrial zone near the city of Dimona, where Israel actually has their nuclear bases. Among the key industries in this area are phosphate extraction facilities, operations related to uranium contained in phosphate rock, and Israel's ammonia plant, not to mention in Dimona. That's where all the nukes are. You have that going on separately. You take a look at what's happening in Iraq right now. This deserves more attention because a war in Iraq is apparently starting again, or at least the beginning potentially of that. So what happened was seven Iraqi army soldiers were killed and 13 were wounded after a US airstrike hit the clinic and an engineering department at the Hobaniya base in Anbar. So that base, which is shared by the Iraqi army and the pmf, Hasht al Sha', Bi, it's like a Shiite militia that's relating, that works with the army, was struck in two consecutive US attacks, March 24 and March 25. So this all happened in the past 24 hours. Baghdad called the strikes a serious violation of Iraqi sovereignty, especially because a military medical facility was hit. They begun their diplomatic and security consultations, but Iraq authorized the Shiite militias to retaliate against the United States. And then we saw in Camp Victory the Shiite militias using the fpv, those first person viewing drones to destroy a Blackhawk and the radar system there with a drone swarm that was circling around the area with impunity.
