— 🇺🇸/🇮🇱 NOTE: The American proposal includes a 'permanent cessation of hostilities', NOT a permanent ceasefire

According to sources on the internet, a cessation of hostilities is non-binding, and is usually applied when negotiations are still ongoing.

This means that Israel could announce a cessation of hostilities to get back most of the hostages, and then continue the war nevertheless, claiming they never agreed to a permanent ceasefire.

Language is EXTREMELY important in these types of diplomatic deals. Never trust America.

As far as Macron is concerned, this is probably his darkest day in office. Worst than 9/11 maybe.

🇲🇽⚡️- The 2024 Mexican general election is occurring tomorrow. There is one primary frontrunner in the election.

Claudia Sheinbaum, representing the leftist MORENA, is a Jewish Marxist, feminist, and pro-abortionist. She was formerly the Head of Government of Mexico City, where she was the first head of government to attend the city's pride march. She is currently the frontrunner for the election in Mexico.

MORENA has enjoyed electoral success over the last few cycles, with the PRI largely losing influence and popularity.
