Civilization War in Real Life

This is like in Sid Meier's civilization when you piss a country off so much and then want to end a war with them and they won't even speak to you Except it's real life. Iran is refusing overtures from US until Israel ‘retreats and completely collapses’. x.com/iranarabic_ir/... A senior Iranian political official: Trump is seeking, through intermediaries, to connect with us and Washington to end the war, but at the same time, he claims the opposite. Trump states in interviews with American media that there is no specific timeline for ending the war, which contradicts the messages he is sending to us. This American contradiction reflects a state of chaos and deep crisis that Trump is going through, where he has found himself in a major predicament without possessing a clear path out of this quagmire. Tehran has firmly informed the intermediaries that it is not receiving any message from the American side and will not respond to it. Iran has a firm and resolute stance with a strategic objective, which is not to respond to any initiative until the Zionist entity retreats and completely collapses after all the crimes it has committed in the region and the chaos it has caused in the world.

Пост с шуткой сравнивает реальную ирано-американскую напряжённость с ситуацией в Sid Meier’s Civilization, где страна настолько разозлена игроком, что отказывается даже разговаривать о мире. Встроенная публикация утверждает, что Иран не отвечает на американские попытки контакта, пока Израиль не отступит и полностью не рухнет. Мем используют как реакцию на дипломатический тупик и последствия внешнеполитических решений, которые привели к войне и невозможности договориться. EN: The post compares real-life tensions between Iran and the United States to a situation in Sid Meier’s Civilization where a country becomes so angry with the player that it refuses even to discuss peace. The embedded post claims that Iran will not respond to American attempts at contact until Israel retreats and completely collapses. The meme is used as a reaction to diplomatic deadlock and the consequences of foreign-policy decisions that have led to war and made negotiation impossible.
