From New York, this is Democracy Now.

I heard this morning that our conditions had been accepted, and then a ceasefire was declared.

I was genuinely happy from the bottom of my heart.

Relief spread across Iran after a two-week ceasefire deal was announced Tuesday evening,

ahead of President Trump's deadline.

Pakistan brokered the deal.

Trump initially threatened to bomb bridges and power plants inside Iran, possible war crimes,

and escalated his threat Tuesday morning by posting on social media,

quote, a whole civilization will die tonight.

The statement drew worldwide condemnation.

We'll speak to Professor Nag N'agme Sarabi and

Eskandar Sadiqi Burjerdi about what exactly the ceasefire is, what comes

next and more. Then to a new documentary about Democracy Now and our very

own Amy Goodman called Steal This Story Please.

My first impressions of Amy.

What did you say to those who say that you're a war criminal?

Man, she doesn't care what anybody thinks.

Don't push me.

I'm a journalist here.

Independent media is the oxygen of a democracy.

What do you mean by independent?

Not being sponsored by corporations.
