Vice President JD Vance needs to get his head out of the conspiratorial \u201crabbit holes\u201d he says he loves to explore and drop the the bizarro line he just pitched to Joe Rogan that the Israelis blew up the Iran peace deal because they want \u201cto keep the war going on indefinitely.\u201d<\/p>\n

It was Iran<\/em> that broke the 60-day \u201ccomprehensive cease-fire\u201d established by the Memorandum of Understanding by attacking ships in the Strait of Hormuz, period: No Jews involved.<\/p>\n

Before the ink was dry on the MOU, which guaranteed open passage through the Strait of Hormuz, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard asserted Tehran\u2019s control and ownership of the waterway and warned that merchant ships must obtain its OK to transit; then it started firing on vessels that didn\u2019t comply.<\/p>\n

Blocking sea lanes reopened the war, and Israel had nothing to do with it.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s also preposterous to charge that Jerusalem wants the war to drag on \u201cindefinitely\u201d; it\u2019s always<\/em> been clear about its objectives on Iran: destroy its nuclear capability, eviscerate its conventional-war machine, if possible, foster the end of the regime that makes Tehran an enemy of civilization.<\/p>\n

Yes, Israel hated the MOU, which was drawn up completely without its involvement \u2014 and so left it no way to undermine it, except insofar as Iran claimed that Israeli self-defense against Hezbollah\u2019s attacks from Lebanon somehow broke the truce. <\/p>\n

Even then, Jerusalem yielded <\/em>to President Donald Trump\u2019s demands that it back off in Lebanon. <\/p>\n

Vance went to other ugly places in his chat with Rogan: pretending that an open Israel-funded PR effort to counter antisemitism among younger conservatives somehow is actually a secret drive to undo peace with Iran and smear him; suggesting that the craziest Jeffrey Epstein conspiracy theories are true and Israel is part of the plot. <\/p>\n

Maybe he wanted to deflect responsibility for the failure of an MOU he helped negotiate; maybe he resents how Trump opted for a war he likely opposed and then stuck him with trying to negotiate an exit. <\/p>\n

Whatever: Pitching conspiracy theories, especially ones that flirt with rank antisemitism, is the wrong way out of your dilemma, JD. <\/p>\n
