    That’s what a ceasefire is, for Israel. You have to stop shooting them, while they continue to shoot you. And if you shoot back then that’s an unprovoked violation of the ceasefire and they get to shoot you more.

      They signed a ceasefire in Lebanon in November and violated it thousands of times, killing hundreds.

      When Hezbollah finally responded the West blamed them for starting a war.

    Iran, meanwhile, has fired several salvos of ballistic missiles at Israel since the ceasefire was reportedly supposed to take effect.

    Yeah, did Iran/Israel actually negotiate a ceasefire between each other or was it just an Iran/US ceasefire…

      Based on what I’ve read its just US-Iran, not Israel too. Ie many of the comments are wrong about Israel breaking a ceasefire.

    While Trump is desperately trying to get his dick out of the meat grinder of a war in the middle east, Netanyaho does care f about war crimes, and will continue making enemies all around him.

    You know what recently came to my mind…

    Israel is basically a military outpost for the US in the middle east. it’s one large military base that is supposed to pressure arab countries into giving their oil to the US. It’s “either you sell your oil in US dollar (which we can conveniently print at will) or … you know, Israel is your neighbor, and they have a ton of arms”. It’s an extortion scheme.

    This is why Israel is threatened by renewable energy. Because if the world is not dependent on oil, then Israel has no reason to exist, as the US won’t give them a lot of weapons anymore to conduct their extortion scheme. And then Israel would collapse.

    I thought the US announced a “ceasefire” because too many Congress people were mumbling about impeachment over the Easter tweets, and also because USA is running out of bombs and the soldiers are dying too fast. I didn’t realize that Iran reciprocated and agreed to some sort of negotiations with the USA.

    Edit Israel is gonna Israel. Perhaps Iran gotta Iran on Israel.
