Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has authorized officials to engage in negotiations regarding a proposed 21-day ceasefire with Hezbollah. The diplomatic effort, spearheaded by the United States and France at the UN General Assembly, aims to halt escalating violence following intensive Israeli airstrikes in Lebanon, including targets in Beirut. While international leaders advocate for a temporary truce to prevent a wider regional conflict, the Israeli military remains on high alert as Hezbollah continues to launch retaliatory rocket fire into Israeli territory.

What do you think? Do you think what’s happening in Lebanon could end the fragile ceasefire in Iran?
I think Israel’s endgame is to finish off Hezbollah, once and for all, and reconstitute southern Lebanon as a zone free of hostile Shia.

Never trust a genocidaire… a guy who has already admitted that it was his "wet-dream" of 4 decades… and we have our press talking about Iranian nuclear, uranium enrichment, Iranian nuclear program… which has not been successful in 40 years… while the Koreans took less than two decades, without letting IAEA inspectors in.
