President Biden announces ceasefire to end fighting between Israel and Hezbollah
Israel's Cabinet has approved the ceasefire after urging from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Summary
President Biden announced a U.S.-brokered ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah, effective Wednesday, ending over a year of deadly conflict that killed nearly 3,800 in Lebanon and displaced over 1.2 million.
The deal requires Hezbollah to pull forces 20 miles from Israel’s border, Israeli troop withdrawals within 60 days, and joint patrols by Lebanese forces and UN peacekeepers.
Biden emphasized Israel’s right to self-defense if terms are violated.
France supported implementation efforts, while Iran and Trump’s team were briefed.
Fighting between Israel and Hamas in Gaza remains unresolved.

I’m sure something will happen if they fail to withdraw within the 60 day deadline, right? Just like all the previous deadlines they failed to meet, right?
-
Doesn't matter to them because by then if they break the agreement it'll be Trump's problem. Biden can take credit for brokering a peace deal before he leaves office to bolster his resume
-
Does it count if also a reason for the conflict occurring?
-
The hostilities predate Biden, the current conflict would have happened with anyone as president
It’s just a US/Russia proxy war so if the US president took the other side then the conflict would be over as the one side is eliminated just like they’ve been in the rest of the Arab world (though part of that is likely that they fled to Israel)
-
Oh well that absoves Biden of everything then!
Him allowing Israel to anything they want definitely didn't do anything to increase hostilities in the area...
-
There’s a big difference between “everything” and being the reason for a conflict
Your initial statement was just a falsehood that makes it harder for everyone smarter than you to defend Palestinians
-
Please Mr smarter than everyone explain how him letting Israel do everything they want didn't contribute. Especially as they've been escalating this entire time
-
There you go redefining again
Some of us are old enough to remember Trump’s 2016 campaign where his messaging was to carpet bomb all of the Muslim nations in the Middle East
Others know what nations at war are capable of when the higher power behind them give the green light. We know Biden wasn’t letting Israel do as they please
-
And there you go calling everyone else an idiot child.
Please show us where Biden has done anything to reign them in. Fuck he even went behind Obama and Hilarys back to let Israel and bibi get out of restraining
-
Show me where Israel has used nuclear weapons
Show me the crater where Palestine was
They can track who buys pagers in a different country, arm them, then detonate remotely. Do you really think there would be anything left of Palestinians if Netty had free reign?
