US official to Axios:

The president doesn't want to continue strikes on Iran.

He's ready to do it if the Iranians retaliate against US forces, but he told Netanyahu that he wants peace.

Israeli official to Axios:.

We didn't press the US to join the war. We were careful not to create the impression that we are dragging the US into a war.

But luckily for us, Khamenei acted like an idiot and refused any proposal from the US.

Trump:

Iran has killed and maimed thousands of Americans, and even took over the American Embassy in Tehran under the Carter Administration. We had a spectacular military success yesterday, taking the “bomb” right out of their hands (and they would use it if they could!)

Israeli officials to Yedioth Ahronoth:

We will accept a ceasefire tomorrow if Khamenei announces that he wants one.

We do not want to enter into a war of attrition with Iran.

But the possibility of Iran agreeing to enter into negotiations is slim, if not nonexistent.
