@timand2037 Trump should go and talk to them. 😁

@SaraJade_13 After all it's crimes and lies asking Australians to trust Israel to investigate itself is like pissing on us all. The government is treating us with utter contempt on this.

@awambmrgw @SaraJade_13 They are just the messengers.

@JJKALE2 She's going to have to do some heavy duty lying to the kids to pull it off.

Making a deal with Iran would require Trump to formally accept the defeat of his regime change war and return at least some of Iran's stolen ("frozen") assets. He hasn't been willing to do that, so has spent weeks stalling for time. That gave Israel an opening to act as a spoiler, which it seized by escalating its aggression against Lebanon.

Perhaps Israel and the US thought that Iran was desperate enough for a deal to stand down. By striking Israel today, Iran has shown that it will not abandon Hezbollah and south Lebanon.

Now the onus is back on Trump: is he willing to respect Iran and Lebanon as sovereign nations and have peace, or is the cause of Greater Israel worth continuing the war.

@JoanneHorniman @AlboMP Albo will say something like "I'm not going to do a running commentary" while he watches the US break international law by attacking Cuba. He's just a piss ant.

@devalara44 @JoanneHorniman @DavidHa30584721 @AlboMP We shouldn't remain silent when international law crimes are committed otherwise other countries will do the same to us if we are in trouble.

@icpz157670 @QuentinDempster Labor has got such a big majority it could do nothing between now and the next election and still win.

@jmil400 He lies like he breathes.

@Tamer_Alnoaizy And the day after that Penny Wong says she's "deeply concerned."

[Peter Beer @PeterCeasefire]

@MichaelWestBiz At least they've stopped telling us the lie that the Iron Dome stopped all the missiles.

[Peter Beer @PeterCeasefire]

@JJKALE2 And that is despite the mainstream media and governments covering up for its crimes. Imagine what it would be if they weren't doing that.

@blakandblack It's funny how some people think these changes were magnanimously handed down from employers and governments.

@howardslee @EddyJokovich Actions do have consequences. People don't like their land being taken for some reason.

[Peter Beer @PeterCeasefire]

@SusanSmithAus I agree with that official. Trump is the person responsible for this whole catastrophe and why it's not being resolved. His incompetence, hubris, stupidity, ego, etc, etc, all contribute.

[Peter Beer @PeterCeasefire]

@JoanneHorniman @JonesHowDareYou @GuardianAus It's the opposite of bold journalism. Weak journalism maybe?

[Peter Beer @PeterCeasefire]

@noplaceforsheep When you lie like he does then aggression is one of your best tactics.

[Peter Beer @PeterCeasefire]

@EddyJokovich Who?
Iran it seems.

[Peter Beer @PeterCeasefire]

@leckie_cameron (still trying to understand how to operate this new version of X!)

[Peter Beer @PeterCeasefire]

@leckie_cameron This is a new kind of escalation i.e. Iran acting as a protector of Lebanon. It's ironic that
