Iran launched a barrage of ballistic missiles toward Israel in what has been described as the most serious violation of the ceasefire reached in early April

The ceasefire where Israel never ceased firing? That one? And firing a barrage of missiles is the most serious violation of it? Not the day-after-day brutal attacks and murders of Palestinians and Lebanese?

Fuck this media.

    People who call the shots usually don't have to go around telling people that they call the shots.

    Trump's remarks came shortly after Iran launched a barrage of ballistic missiles toward Israel in what has been described as the most serious violation of the ceasefire reached in early April, sharply escalating tensions across the region.

    The sheer balls to claim one side can "violate a ceasefire" like they should still abide by it when the other side dont

    Uhuh... how did that go with Lebanon? Or Syria? Or Judea-Samaria? Or the UAE when they assassinated leaders? Or Iran? If I recall correctly, Trump told them to 'Fucking not.' and said he will decide and Netanyahu ignored him and went ahead to do it anyways. What is he going to do? Invade a nuclearly-armed chemical weapons-armed country with second-strike capabilities and an Intelligence Agency proven they are willing strike in the West? It is frankly pathetic Trump thinks he can do anything to stop them. Especially when Russia would flip on a dime to take over for the State of Israel in the United Nations if the United States of America truly went against them because Russia only cares about power, not neccessarily who is their ally. Trump speaks a big game and then cannot back it up. Is he strong? That depends if you think bombing countries into oblivion and back is strong. Is he actually able to project power? HAH! Russia, China, India, Israel, and the European Union walks all over him and laughs at him not only behind closed doors, but to his face! He could not even stop the war in Ukraine, could not stop the war in Gaza, could not stop China projecting power further into Europe and posturing against Taipei, and could not tariff India into submission as he realised they are too large and powerful to be blackmailed into submission. All he can do is mess with United Kingdom because Starmer is a weak coward who cannot stand up to Trump and is bullied into submission. Trump cannot even keep his 'most important promises', much less call the shots for a nation that produces their own weapons, phased out reliance on the Iron Dome to the Iron Beam, has an Intelligence Agency that rivals the C.I.A., and recently turned down ALL future aid from the United States of America as they did in the 1980s and before since they realise relations between the West and the State of Israel are faltering. Anyone who knows the situation on the ground can see that as they hedge their bets to the Russo-Sino-Indo sphere and other parts of the Far East. But yeah! Trump can TOTALLY control Israel, right guys?! 😉 Laughable. Gosh... his posturing just makes him sound like a pissbaby. 🤣

    Edited because minor spelling error.

    "I call the shots (as directed by Netanyahu)."

    The last several presidents all got Netanyahu's spiel and rightly told him to fuck off. Only Trump was weak-willed enough to act on it.

    As you say: "Hezbollah never seized firing either"

    From this we absolutely know, by your clear choice of words, that you state:

    You want Americans to give Iron-Dome missile defenses to Palestine and Lebanon, so that they can "seize-the-fire" of Israel. All non-Jewish semetic people thank you for your support, and ICE and Republican Officials welcome you for a fireside chat.

    Indeed, your commander in McChef velcomes you to become a "foundation"al member of his ballroom.

    And all the MAGAts, ICE cosplaygents, and Pigs/Filth are all so so so deeply fucking stupid that they can't even see they're protecting Israel ruling their country while getting none of the benefits the capitalist/political class are getting 😂

    These absolutely cooked dumb fucks who couldn't critically analyse which side of toast they should butter are protecting the active mugging and raw-dogging that America is getting from billionaires that aren't even from their country (Musk) and foreign governments (BitchBi and Shitin) who are happy wiping their asses with the constitution. It's frankly embarrassing to watch

    As an outside observer, watching the Delaney Hall concentration camp videos, it's pathetic to watch those tools that are standing there in their little uniforms doing the most evil and fucked up shit and call themselves Christian 😂 like it's actually cringey af that they cosplay security guards and think they're actually really the smart ones who see it all, when they can't even see what's going on in front of them.

    Didn't we already go down this road? Didn't Netanyahu immediately fire missiles at Beriut when one of the conditions of the Iranian ceasefire was to stop attacking Lebanon?

    Hell, Hegseth told the press this entire war was justified using the reasoning that Israel was going to attack Iran directly against the recommendation of the US.

    Nothing about Trump's position indicates he has any ability to direct Israeli action.

    JFK did. He used FARA to demand the American Zionist Council register as a foreign agent, which it clearly was.

    Then JFK was assassinated, the demand was withdrawn, and AZC rebranded as AIPAC.

    Last time, Israel was still bombing civilians during the middle of the peace talks, I am expecting them to do the same and guarantee no progress is made.

    Actually reduce weapons sent to Israel a little bit. See how that goes, or if your own party revolts.

    yes, yes, trump is such a big boy, clearly. He's almost potty trained even, and he can pick a giraffe out of the animal lineup on cognitive tests. Clearly he is in charge. At least while he is not napping and has forgotten the israeli Epstein honeypot tapes.

    AIPAC will see to that. If he turns against Israel, they would send every member of the house and senate banging at his door.

    The shitty bloody truth is, that Israel does not. They have a fairly independent defence industry and it is not like any of the Arab countries on the path to Iran can do anything about the Israeli air force flying through their air space. So Israel can keep bombing. The pieces of leverage Trump has are US aid to Israel and stuff like sanctions. However Israel can probably survive even that, given they have a fairly independent defence industry and the economy is a dumpster fire anyway. If they are mad enough Israel can survive this.

    Sorry, but that is the bloody truth. Israel is an Apartheid country and it took a lot to bring down the South African original. Even that was to a large degree the whites just giving up and Israel is no where close to that.
