Thanks for this unavailable-elsewhere summary. Well done.

Complementary to it is Pepe Escobar's excellent appraisal setting out the Big Picture context:

Thank you for this excellent, detailed summation of so many reports that inform us what's going on behind the scenes or under the blinkered radar of mainstream media.

For those interested, I just posted a June 18th interview with Max Blumenthal, who was in Iran right before Israel's surprise attack and is, as always, incredibly informative: https://penelopepnortney183670.substack.com/p/max-blumenthal-discusses-the-war

Action by Turkey could be a determining factor in the outcome of the Israeli War on civilization.

Turkey is not going to do anything... not for Iranians, at least... as it has not done anything for Palestinians in Gaza.

I have not reported on this because I saw it only few minutes before publishing and for sake of brevity (the article is already very long!), but earlier this week Erdogan made covert attempts to hold talks with Iran on behalf of the Outlaw US Empire, as reported by Al Mayadeen: https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/trump--erdogan-made-covert-attempts-to-hold-talks-with-iran

However, the Iranian delegation did not get approval from Khamenei and nothing happened in the end.
