I wouldn’t trust any ceasefire endorsement from a group like Hezbollah

It has been really strange. Hezbollah allegedly has 100,000 soldiers and 150,000 missiles but all they have done is fired off a few hundred volleys. They are either in complete command disarray or purposely refraining.

You can take it to the bank that if Hezbollah is calling for a cease fire they are losing. Israel is hitting them where it hurts.

>““We support the political efforts led by (Parliament Speaker Nabih) Berri under the banner of achieving a ceasefire. Once the ceasefire is firmly established and diplomacy can reach it, all other details will be discussed and decisions will be made collaboratively,” Deputy Secretery General Naim Qassem said.”
That isn’t how a ceasefire works. You have to discuss the details, to be able to execute the diplomacy, to be able to reach the ceasefire agreement. Not all the way to a final peace treaty, but enough to provide confidence that pausing hostilities is worthwhile.
This is a propaganda statement vs. sincere participation. You can tell because it is pretending the work and negotiation doesn’t need to happen in order for a ceasefire agreement to be reached.
A step in the right direction, but not nearly enough to be real or meaningful.

Terrorist Tactics 101:
1. Attack the enemy with every murderous genocidal rapey weapon.
2. When the enemy retaliates, demand a ceasefire in the name of peace.

no ceasefire.
Surrender.

Nah fuck that, Hezbollah can disarm and surrender but I don’t know why anyone thinks Israel is morally obligated to engage in ceasefire negotiations.

Why are they asking for a ceasefire if a ceasefire has been in place since 2006, enforced by UN peacekeepers? /s

ceasefire please so we can prepare another terrorist attack, as our beliefs are unchanged.

Ceasefire but only one side ceases the fire is what they meant

No quarter. For an entire year Israel is asking you to hold your fire and thousands of rockets aimed at Israeli cities you don’t get to set the terms. Surrender or be crushed.

Hezbollah wants some breathing room to regroup, rearm and restructure its chain of command. Israel should not give it any time to recover. Israel is so close to victory. It shouldn’t stop now.

The Israeli goal is to make it safe for Israelis evacuated from the north to be able to move back. A ceasefire in Lebanon is easy to enforce; if Hezbollah fires rockets or mortars or drones or missiles, then Israel restarts the bombing campaign on steroids.
Once the ceasefire is in place, we can see if the UN will do its job (not expected, based on history). The IDF can draw down to just protecting their border.
Gaza is different because of the hostages.

Who tf is left alive in Hezbollah leadership to guarantee the troops actually respect a ceasefire?

I’d return with an armistice or peace treaty offer.
(You know… actual, long-term peace offers.)
If Hezbollah says no, then they’ve show their hand. That any offer they make is only so they can regroup, rearm, and attack.

So it turns out that turning residential homes into ammo dumps wasn’t a great strategic move.

Typical CNN headline. They get their information straight from the terrorists and publish without question. Let’s see how long CNN reporters would remain left wing if they lived under the constant barrage of rockets.

Israel has defined the operation’s objectives, and if these objectives have been achieved, there is no reason to risk more soldiers.
Hezb is a terrorist organization obviously, they will not become peaceful all of a sudden, Israel should do what’s best for Israel interests.
