shaiel ben-ephraim: Israel is conducting a massive targeted assassination against the Iranian ceasefire in Beirut. There is no other way of looking at it...Israel dragged the world into this war. It is now trying to make sure that the world cannot escape it.


Radical Israel hater blames Israel for something, says Israel is trying to destroy the world. Story at 11.

There doesn’t appear to have been a meeting of minds about what’s in the ceasefire agreement.

Trump freaking out and threatening CNN for printing the Iranian position makes me think he was not fully aware of the Iranian position.


Yup

Try to make up your mind. Was there something to leak, or did everyone know everything?

Trump says he couldn't trust Germany, so giving them one iota of non-public information would not be reasonable. It's not reasonable for the American president to take that chance.

Trump called the ceasefire because The Masters is on starting tomorrow thru weekend. Next week we’ll be back to bombing them. :)

One thing this does is show he’s trying to negotiate. When he started the war many leftists claimed he never made any efforts.

Now we can analyze all the recon we did and watch movements and when we go back can hit them hard. Allows aircrew and sailors some rest and maintenance.

When we go back at least Trump can claim he tried. People need to have some patience and see how this plays off. Everyone is an expert and we have no idea his plans which is a good thing.

I trust Trump way more than Biden or Obama in dealing with Iran. Give it some time.

My initial disappointment in the cease fire is the regime remains intact - though tattered.

What may have been behind the cease fire curtain is securing a treasure trove of intelligence otherwise hidden from sight.

Sit back and wait.

The poster didn’t believe that CNN was reporting something put out by Iran.
