— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 President Trump:

‘They [Iran] gave us a paper that wasn’t good enough.

Immediately after we canceled [the Pakistan trip], within 10 minutes they called us and gave us a paper that was much better.

They will not have a nuclear weapon, it’s very simple.’

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 Reporter: ‘Will you continue the ceasefire?’

President Trump: ‘I haven’t even thought about it’

@Middle_East_Spectator

I can’t even make this into a serious post because it’s so ridiculous:

ISRAEL has informed the U.S. that it needs to put more pressure on Hezbollah to ‘respect the ceasefire in Lebanon’. It calls the violations ‘unacceptable’.

Yes, you got that right. The side that has bombed more than 300+ places, carried out dozens of assassinations, and demolished villages is asking the other side to not violate.

The state of the world is absolutely ridiculous and it’s fucking insane that Israel is allowed to get away with this.

For Israel, a ceasefire means ‘we get to attack you as much as we want, you get to do nothing at all’

And for whatever reason, the spineless countries of the West have accepted this as normal.

It’s sincerely pathetic.
