President Trump announced Monday that he and Vice President JD Vance digitally signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Iran, which reportedly includes a 60-day ceasefire, the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, sanctions relief to Iran, and possible restrictions on Iran’s nuclear program. The details remain unclear, as the MOU has not yet been released.
One party said to be opposed to the agreement is Israel, which partnered with the U.S. to attack Iran. Former U.S. Ambassador to Israel Daniel Shapiro responded and wrote Tuesday: “Israelis are deeply disappointed in this outcome.”
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, indicating that violence in the region may continue, suggested the cease-fire agreement between the United States and Iran does not apply to Israel. He said: “This agreement was made by the United States, by the president of the United States…That’s his decision.” He added: “We have our own interests.”
Pro-Israel Fox News star Mark Levin also responded to the MOU news: “Here’s an idea: if you want people to stop speculating about the MOU release the MOU. Don’t brief a few anointed ones to control the narrative and expect everyone else to sit silently. That’s not how our country works. It’s going to be signed soon. It takes time for people to digest it all once it is released. Controlling the narrative can only last so long.”
Here’s an idea: you don’t call the shots.

Sit back and stop trying to undermine the President and his team. https://t.co/LKU1SK6uFr
Trump advisor and social media political consultant Alex Bruesewitz (whom Politico named “Trump’s online brawler”) replied to Levin: “Here’s an idea: you don’t call the shots. Sit back and stop trying to undermine the President and his team.”
[NOTE: In his 2002 book Winning the Social Media War: How Conservatives Can Fight Back, Reclaim the Narrative and Turn the Tide Against the Left, Bruesewitz wrote: “We treat content creation like a job because it is one,” and “if you’re not planning content and it’s exclusively reacting, you’re losing.” Charlie Kirk wrote a foreword for the book, which was published by Bombarier Books, also the publisher of memoirs by Mike Flynn and Kash Patel.]
