    “Under the deal reached today, effective at 4:00 a.m. tomorrow, local time, the fighting across the Lebanese Israeli border will end,” Biden said in the White House Rose Garden.

    “This is designed to be a permanent cessation of hostilities,” he added. “What is left of Hezbollah and other terrorist organizations will not be allowed, I emphasize, will not be allowed, to threaten the security of Israel again.”

    Can never tell if Biden is saying what he means to say, or his mind went on a walkabout…

    But it sounds like that’s less of an equal ceasefire and more that Israel will restart if they hear anyone complain about Israel’s actions…

    Like, Biden is literally threatening them, that if they threaten Israel that’s enough for a war…

    And he probably legit believes this is fair and equal

      “Fair and equal” for a military industrial complex that has waged war its entire existence is about as “fair and equal” as a master and their slave.

      They’re allowed to “complain about Israel”. They aren’t allowed to fire missiles or wage attacks.

      Hope that clears things up for you.

        I know Bibi may think of indiscriminate attacks on civilians as “just a threat” but very very few others do…

      Well he’s basically saying that if they break the ceasefire again, they get the hose again

      Biden’s probably patting himself on the back for “bringing peace” to a conflict he helped create and make worse. Helped lose the election to a fascist too. I hope history remembers him for the complete murderous idiot he is.

      Why should it be? It’s a ceasefire deal, not splitting candy between kids. You accept or impose the conditions of the deal based on your position and capabilities on the battlefield.
