How outlets framed it

Left: Sources on the left frame the US-Iran deal as a significant shift that alarms rivals and potentially empowers Iran, while also highlighting Israeli obstructionism.

Center: Centrist sources report on the US-Iran agreement as a landmark event redrawing the Middle East, noting Iran's gains and the alarm of its rivals.

Right: Right-leaning sources suggest that President Trump, feeling humiliated by Iran, might escalate conflict in the Middle East and blame Israel for delays in a peace deal.

Key divergence: The primary divergence lies in the framing of the US-Iran deal, with left-leaning sources emphasizing Iran's gains and rivals' alarm, centrist sources focusing on the geopolitical redraw, and right-leaning sources suggesting potential conflict escalation and blame-shifting.
