Hundreds of deaths from Israeli strikes and they still say the ceasefire is in place? That’s a joke, not a ceasefire.
So the US is hosting talks again. Let’s hope this time they actually address the root causes instead of just kicking the can down the road.
Lebanon’s government is in no position to negotiate with Israel when Hezbollah calls the shots. These talks are just for show.
If the ceasefire expires without a deal, we’re looking at another full-scale war. The clock is ticking for Washington to broker something real.
I’m skeptical that talks in DC will change anything. Israel keeps striking while ‘negotiating’ — that’s not good faith.
Good to see diplomacy continuing. The alternative is too terrible to contemplate, so I’m cautiously optimistic.
