Fmr. Iranian Diplomat Amir Mousavi: We Don't Need 60%-Enriched Uranium, We Did It Just To Spite America; When We Bombed Al-Udaid Base, Trump Raised The White Flag and Accepted Our Terms; Israel Was Al
Former Iranian diplomat and presidential advisor Amir Mousavi called the recent war with Israel a "great victory" in a June 29, 2025 interview on BBC Arabic (U.K.). He claimed that Trump surrendered to Iran's ceasefire terms, which included allowing Iran to have the "last shot" at Al‑Udeid Base in Qatar. He asserted that the Islamic Republic had "almost completely destroyed" Israel, bringing life to a standstill. Rejecting the interviewer's claim that Israel retains military capability, he said, "take it from me, the Zionist entity is finished." Mousavi added that Iranian leaders did not hide in bomb shelters like "cowardly Zionists"; President Pezeshkian reportedly went to Enghelab Square amid seven bombings, and Supreme Leader Khamenei walked around Tajrish Square after three missile strikes. On Iran's nuclear program, he said the attacks allowed Iran to claim that the program was destroyed and shift to a secret one. He added that Iran enriched uranium to 60% not out of necessity, but to spite the U.S. withdrawal from the JCPOA and to "hurt America." Amir Mousavi: "When Al-Udeid Base was attacked, Trump immediately raised a white flag." News Anchor: "In what sense did he raise a white flag?" Mousavi: "He said: 'We accept your terms.'" News Anchor: "Where did you see this statement? It was nowhere in the media. He really said that he accepted your terms?" Mousavi: "Yes. Yes. He agreed to our four conditions. The message was conveyed to Dr. Araghchi, who was in Moscow, and he delivered the message to Tehran, and Tehran said it would accept a ceasefire only if the Iranian conditions are met. First, Iran's conditions must be accepted, and Iran must be the last one to shoot. They agreed to all the conditions set by Iran." News Anchor: "What are the four conditions?" Mousavi: "Lifting the sanctions, of course. There should be rapid guarantees about recognizing Iran's peaceful nuclear program. The war against Gaza and the aggression against Lebanon must stop. [...] "The Islamic Republic of Iran has managed to destroy the Zionist entity almost completely. Life there came to a complete standstill." News Anchor: "What destruction? They still have their military capabilities, and they continue to bomb Gaza." Mousavi: "No, no. They do not have their military capabilities anymore. Take it from me, the Zionist entity is finished. [...] "The Zionist entity is in ruin. You look at the pictures coming from the Zionist entity and it is really impossible to tell them apart from the situation in Gaza. Thank God, the Palestinian people are very happy right now, and see it as divine vengeance against that entity... I see this as a great victory." News Anchor: "What about the Iranian people? This war was brought to their doorsteps. The people of Tehran left the city..." Mousavi: "It's not a problem." News Anchor: "The scientists and generals were assassinated in their own homes. Do you think that the Iranians are happy with what is going on?" Mousavi: "You should see the streets of Tehran. Even during the bombings, the streets were teeming with millions of people. The Iranian president went to Enghelab Square, which was bombed seven times, along with tens of thousands of people. Imam Khamenei walked around Tajrish Square, where three missiles hit the area. They did not go to bomb shelters like the cowardly Zionists. [...] "I think that what happened serves Iran's interest. Iran will say: 'Yes, our nuclear program has been hit, and we do not have a nuclear program anymore.' From now on, the nuclear program will proceed in secret. What will happen then? I think that in both cases, they will have to swallow the bitter pill. If they claim that the nuclear program has been destroyed, then they have nothing to inspect. It is over. Come and see, the nuclear facilities in Natanz, Fordo, and Isfahan have gone up in smoke. Then, Iran will go for a secret nuclear program. [...] "Why did Iran decide to enrich uranium to 60%? Because the U.S. withdrew from the nuclear deal. It was only in spite of America. Iran wanted to defeat and hurt America by moving forward with its nuclear program, even though it did not need 60% enriched uranium."

WCCO's Amelia Santaniello explains her disappearance from TV screens
WCCO's Amelia Santaniello explains her disappearance from TV screens originally appeared on Bring Me The News. WCCO news anchor Amelia Santaniello has been off the air for a while, and viewers have taken note. On Friday, Santaniello offered an update in a video posted to social media. "I just wanted to let you know where I have been. A lot of you have written in. The last time I took this much time off was when I had my children," Santaniello says. "That is not the case this time. It is my foot surgery, which went really well, but my recovery is taking a little bit more time," she says before showing her walking boot. In addition to writing in, some viewers have been asking WCCO on social media where the popular anchor has been during recent newscasts, which WCCO noted in a Facebook post. Santaniello, who joined the station in 1996 and currently co-anchors the news with her husband, Frank Vascellaro, says he'll "be back soon." Her husband had his own absence from TV screens in 2023, when he slipped on his driveway and required rotator cuff story was originally reported by Bring Me The News on May 30, 2025, where it first appeared.

Top 5 Japanese romance dramas on Netflix: From First Love to Nevertheless and more
It's been a while since Sakura and Haruto pulled us into the messy, addictive world of Fishbowl Wives, or since Riisa Naka and Tori Matsuzaka's fiery politician-actor romance had us fully hooked, just two standouts from the growing slate of J-content on Netflix. With the steady rise of Asian shows on OTT platforms, especially with the Hallyu wave cracking open the gate for viewers to explore everything from Thai dramas to Indian series, Japanese slice-of-life dramas, and more, it's clear that the OTT space, once heavy on Hollywood and English content, is now leaning hard into Asian storytelling. Japanese shows, on the other hand, with their tight 8–10 episode format, have become fan favourites for their portrayal of raw human emotions and a crop of talented actors, some already household names. Also read: News Anchor star Nagano Mei quits new J-drama amid rumoured relationship with co-actor, agency says 'great trouble caused to relevant units' Cast: Mone Kamishiraishi, Takeru Satoh, and Katsuya Maiguma Release Year: 2020 Director: Maki Enjoji The show revolves around 22-year-old Nanase Sakura, who fell for Doctor Tendo Kairi years ago after witnessing one of his life-saving, heroic moves. Motivated, she grinds her way into the medical field and eventually lands a job as a nurse, hoping to cross paths with him again. Five years later, she does. But the fairytale quickly flies away when she realises Dr. Tendo isn't quite the man she imagined. Turns out, he's a 33-year-old dubbed the 'devil' at work, a perfectionist to the bone, never hesitating to throw sharp-edged, constructive criticism at his peers. Most can't stand him. Sakura, on the other hand, is headstrong, unfiltered, and refuses to back off. She makes it her mission to catch his attention, never hiding how she feels. And somehow, her persistence starts to get through to him. Cast: Hikari Mitsushima, Takeru Satoh, and Rikako Yagi Release Year: 2022 Director: Yuri Kanchiku This 2022 J-drama follows two teenagers who first met in the late '90s. Yae and Harumichi spent years together, carefree, madly in love, until high school graduation pulled them apart. Yae moved to Tokyo, and Harumichi joined the Self-Defense Forces to study aviation. Before leaving, they promised never to forget each other. But 20 years pass, and everything's changed. Adulthood hits different, the spark's faded, life's gotten heavier. The story picks up again with Yae, who, after a tragic accident, gives up her dream of becoming a flight attendant and now works as a taxi driver. Harumichi, having finished his time in the Forces, is with a security firm. Then, just like that, their paths cross again. The drama is inspired by Hikaru Utada's iconic songs 'First Love' and 'Hatsuko'.

It revolves around Kurumi Mashiba, a super work-focused employee at a top interior design firm. Her solo motto? Look good, stay locked into the job, and hustle hard as a fashion influencer, so much so that she forgets everything else, including renewing her apartment lease. Which forces her to move into a shared apartment in Omotesando, the trendy Tokyo neighbourhood, thanks to her friend Kouko Saotome, a food stylist. But Kouko doesn't live alone. Kurumi now finds herself rooming with a bunch of free spirits who see life very differently—like Shun Fujino, a chef chasing a quiet, simple life, and Hase Ayaka, an aspiring artist. Slowly, the new setup starts shaking up Kurumi's world, she begins to question her priorities, rethink her image and opens up to unexpected connections and love. Cast: Ryusei Yokohama as Ren Kosaka, Sara Minami as Miu Hamasaki Release Year: 2024 (Japanese mini-series adaptation) Director: Nakagawa Ryutaro If you've watched Song Kang and Han So Hee's Nevertheless, then you already know the drill. The Sara Minami and Ryusei Yokohama starrer is a Japanese take on the same story, with just a few tweaks in the timeline. Miu is reeling from a breakup that was both brutal and humiliating, and now she's super focused on her art. But her life turns upside down when Kosaka Ren walks in, a free-spirited artist who's back in Japan after years abroad. He joins her university in Kamakura as a guest lecturer, carries a mysterious personality, and has that kind of quiet magnetism that pulls people in, even if he keeps them at arm's length. Except with Miu. That push-pull game. He plays it hard. And even though he stays emotionally checked out, Ren ends up stirring something deep in her that she can't shake. Release Year: 2024 Cast: Fumi Nikaido as Yuri Motomiya, Chae Jong-hyeop as Yoon Tae Oh, Taishi Nakagawa as Akito Hanaoka The story follows Yuri Motomiya, a girl who, after an accident, ends up with a supernatural ability; she can hear people's inner thoughts just by looking into their eyes. At first, it drives her crazy. The constant noise, the unfiltered mess in people's heads, it's enough to make her ditch her dates mid-way. But slowly, she starts making peace with it. And then walks in Yoon Tae Oh, a kind-hearted, soft-spoken Korean student with a calm vibe. Now, every time she looks into his eyes, all she hears is thoughts in Korean, which she doesn't understand. That unexpected barrier turns into her safe zone, letting her finally breathe, speak, and connect without the pressure of hearing every single thing running through someone's mind.
