Iran Refuses Witkoff Channel as Three Carriers Converge and Pentagon Menu Targets Allies
TL;DR
Friday authorized the war; Saturday configured it with carriers, refused talks, allied coercion, China sanctions, and oil above $106.
MSM Perspective
BBC, ABC, Reuters, and regional wires split the events; the paper reads them as one operational architecture locking in.
X Perspective
X treats Iran's public refusal as the real headline: Washington announced a channel, Tehran rejected the premise before the plane mattered.
