🇺🇸 Donald Trump on John Bolton: 'I thought he was a very dumb person, but I used him well, because every time people saw me come into a meeting with John Bolton standing behind me, they thought that he'd attack them because he was a warmonger

He's the one that got us involved, along with Cheney and a couple of others, convinced Bush, which was a terrible decision, to blow up the Middle East.

You know, we blew up the Middle East and we left. We got nothing out of it except a lot of death. We killed a lot of people. And John Bolton was, you know, one of those guys, a stupid guy.'

❗️🇱🇧 Statement by the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon (Hezbollah):

'The 60-day period for the Zionist enemy to withdraw from Lebanese territory permanently is about to end, which necessitates its full and comprehensive implementation in accordance with what was stated in the ceasefire agreement.

There are some leaks that talk about the enemy postponing its withdrawal and intending to stay longer in Lebanon: We call on everyone, especially the political authorities in Lebanon, and by pressuring the countries sponsoring the agreement, to move effectively to keep up with the last days of the deadline in a way that ensures the implementation of the full withdrawal of the IDF and the deployment of the Lebanese Army to every last inch of Lebanese territory, and the return of the people to their villages quickly, and not to allow any pretexts or arguments to prolong the occupation.

Any exceeding the 60-day deadline is considered a blatant violation of the agreement and an insistence on encroaching on Lebanese sovereignty, this would enter a new chapter of the occupation that requires the Lebanese state to deal with it by all means and methods necessary by international charters in all their chapters to restore the land and wrestle it away from the clutches of the occupation.

While we will follow the developments of the situation that is supposed to culminate in the coming days with a complete withdrawal, any breach of the agreement and its clauses, and any attempt to escape from them under flimsy pretexts, will not be acceptable, and we call for a strict commitment with no concessions.'
