"You cant negotiate with a regime that chants Death to America and has exported terrorism for decades. Any deal with Iran must require the elimination of nuclear production stopping ballistic missile activity and an end to support for terrorist proxies. The U.S. should offer zero sanctions relief unless Iran meets these conditions for a full year though history shows that will never happen because the regime lies at every turn. Anything less would be a massive mistake. The Americans constantly say that theyve sent a warship toward Iran. Of course a warship is a dangerous piece of military"

"Sony has rolled out a PS5 rental program in the UK giving players the option to lease the console for about $13 a month depending on the length of the agreement. The structure lowers the entry cost for those who do not want to commit to buying the hardware outright. For PC players interested in GTA [--] the model offers a practical alternative. Renting provides temporary access to the system without the full retail price making it easier to jump into major console releases when they arrive"
