I may be reading too much into this statement, and I certainly hope I am wrong. But it is hard not to interpret it as suggesting that Netanyahu promised Trump another joint military operation against Iran in exchange for his political support.
In other words, Netanyahu may have effectively committed Israel to another war with Iran to secure his political future, regardless of the potential consequences.
If that is indeed the case, it would be an extraordinary and troubling revelation. Israel cannot afford another war with Iran driven by political calculations rather than a genuine national security necessity.

🚨🚨🚨Trump endorses Netanyahu ahead of the elections in a post on Truth Social:
To the Great People of Israel:
Bibi Netanyahu has been a Great Warrior Prime Minister, and an even greater Partner for Peace in combatting the Islamic Republic of Iran, with its 51 year old chant, “Death to Israel, Death to America! We will destroy the Little Satan and the Big Satan.” What Country can survive when things such as this are allowed to be said, because eventually, they always end up being true? It would have been only a question of time until Iran would have put that ominous phrase into effect, but they have been systematically destroyed, both Militarily and Financially, and unless they change their ways, rapidly, we will soon finish the job. If Israel has the wrong Leader, which would be anyone other than Bibi, America will have to do this work ourselves, and I am not inclined to do so. Bibi Netanyahu has been Strong, Brave, and Brilliant in the face of tremendous opposition, including that coming from even Israel, itself. Despite all of that, he has endured and, in fact, he has thrived! I have watched Bibi under the most trying of times. Normal men or women in such situations would have wilted under the pressure — But Bibi did not wilt, he actually got stronger, and maintains that same Strength today. This is the kind of Partner that the United States of America is demanding of Israel, a Country for which it has done so much. Please let this Letter serve to represent my Complete and Total Endorsement of Bibi Netanyahu in his upcoming Race for Re-Election as Prime Minister of Israel. BIBI NETANYAHU WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN! Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Vance is confronted by the emotional husband of a soldier killed in Iran War and acts like he had no idea anyone ever died:
Q: It's a hard price to pay. There's a failure in the leadership. How will the leadership be held accountable?
Vance: If there were failures... This is the first time I've heard of this.

Peter Thiel, venture capitalist and co-founder of PayPal, on competence mattering more than morality:
"if you're evil, you're at least competent. And if you're evil, you're not bad."
"A Ferrari is an evil car because it doesn't get many miles per gallon. A Trabi is a bad car. And so if you're evil, you're at least competent."

Peter Thiel says there's a good chance that the Democrats win the 2028 election in a landslide
"I'm still a Vance partisan. I'm worried that it will be very difficult for either candidate to win. My pessimistic view is that this is the wrong question."
"The right question would be who would be the Democratic nominee."
"Obviously, in a close election, the center-left candidate is probably better. Unless it's a close election, it probably doesn't matter. And I think there's a good chance that it won't even be close."
"If the Republicans lose the midterm elections this fall, the Democrats will think that they're going to win anyway in 2028, and so they probably won't be as strong a firewall against the Democrats. They will not take all steps to prevent a democratic socialist from winning."
"I think the Democrats will do well enough in the midterm elections, in a month and a half, that they'll be indifferent to the center-left or the far-left presidential candidate. And then it's a completely open field, a completely open question."
"I had this debate with Fukuyama, author of The End of History and the Last Man. He no longer fully believes in his theories. But when I told him there's a good chance the democratic socialists will win in 2028, he replied with absolute certainty: 'No way. This will never happen.' And I don't think history is designed that way."

There it is. TACO supreme.
FT:
Gulf foreign ministers plan to meet their Iranian counterpart in a push by Oman and Iran to secure buy-in for a deal temporarily managing shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, as regional states seek a pathway to ease hostilities over the waterway.
The gathering, an Omani initiative, would be the first meeting between the top diplomats from the six-member Gulf Cooperation Council and a senior Iranian official since the US and Israel launched the war against the Islamic republic in February.
It is scheduled to be held on Monday in the Omani coastal city of Salalah, according to two people briefed on the matter. One of the people said the details were not finalised, but that a number of states had confirmed and it was expected to go ahead.

🚨The Houthis Just Took Mocha.
Saudi Arabia's Last Oil Exit Is in Play.
Houthis seized the Red Sea port of Mocha today and are attacking the Hanish islands.
Government forces are pulling back to Dhubab, directly on Bab el Mandeb, opposite Perim island.
Whoever holds that stretch of coast holds the strait.
Why this is the most important oil headline of the week, ahead of tankers off Kharg.
Hormuz is effectively shut.
Every barrel Saudi Arabia has kept flowing since spring has gone west to Yanbu and out through the Red Sea.
Bab el Mandeb is the exit for that route, and the Houthis have declared a naval blockade on Riyadh since July.
Mocha puts their forces within reach of both shores.
The market has priced Hormuz for 7 months.
It has not priced losing the Red Sea too.
If the Houthis take Dhubab and Perim, Saudi crude has no sea route east or west that is not under fire, Suez traffic that recovered 42% in July goes into reverse and the Sumed pipeline into the Mediterranean becomes the only clean path out of the Gulf.
That is not a $100 world.
It is the scenario that takes real Brent toward the 1980 and 2008 peaks.
2 more things from the same story.
Tehran told Pakistan's envoys that "Iran does not control the Houthis," which means nobody on the phone can call this off and the Wall Street Journal reports Vance and Rubio have privately warned Trump the war could run through January 2029.
Brent held above $100 on all of it.
The strait to watch has changed.
