This is going to be a major credibility problem for whatever diplomatic efforts come next, since apparently the ceasefire only applies to whoever Israel decides it applies to on a given day.
so the ceasefire announcement was basically just for press release purposes then
killing civilians in a major city while announcing a ceasefire is a pretty wild way to handle this
This is what happens when you give Netanyahu a blank check for two years straight, absolute clown behavior and now civilians are paying the price.
Biden should've told him no instead of playing Santa - same mistake we made with every foreign entanglement since forever.
Exactly - we need to mind our own business and let Israel handle their own defense without our endless meddling!
So what's your solution, just let Iran keep launching missiles at Israel?
You think Beirut is Iran's military command center or just where the civilians live?
lol "doesn't apply there" is such a convenient loophole, basically just admitting the ceasefire is whatever they want it to be on any given day
so they say one thing publicly then do another, people are supposed to trust that how exactly
Yeah, that's... kind of the whole problem with saying ceasefires have geographic exceptions in real time.
