BREAKING NEWS: According to Reuters, Iran has severed all diplomatic and indirect communication channels with the United States following threats made by Trump. Information exchange between the two sides has been suspended, and reported ongoing diplomatic efforts have been completely frozen. This decision follows Trump's remarks just minutes ago: "A complete civilization will be erased tonight, never to be restored." Trump's rhetoric is now rebounding against himself!
Commentary: Trump's extreme bullying—threatening the destruction of civilization—is essentially treating war as a game and diplomacy as a bargaining chip. Ultimately, it only eliminates the possibility of de-escalation. Iran's closure of all communication channels means the situation has lost its "brakes," and full-scale conflict could erupt at any moment. America's so-called "strong deterrence" has failed to intimidate its opponent; instead, it has trapped the U.S. in a dangerous position with no room for negotiation, no buffer zone, and no way out. This is not merely a total diplomatic failure—it is a reckless act that pushes the entire Middle East, and indeed the world, toward an uncontrollable catastrophe.
