I thought we were supposed to cease fire for 12 hours, and then maybe Israel would stop firing at us. This is all going way too fast.

So, I'm taking in all this news in a bit of a haze (this fucking heatwave man, the humidity) but from what I can tell...

Both sides kept bombing each other up until the ceasefire officially took effect at midnight EST (not uncommon. Israel has done this itself in previous ceasefires, even World War I there was a 6 hour window where the ceasefire was agreed to but it took effect in 6 hours but they still let the troops fight until then and like 2700 people died in that time)

Iran seems to have launched a strike after this window closed (I don't know if Israel did first, until I can clear the timeline up I'll tentatively assume it was Iran who was the first to launch after midnight EST for the moment.) Iran then stated that they considered it now in effect.

It seems Netanyahu and Israel then were going to just tear up the ceasefire and launch a massive retaliation in response to this violation but Trump tried to get them to scale it down to save his ceasefire. It sounds like, maybe, both sides trying to get in "the last word" in that kind of petty way... only with missiles and human lives at stake.

This morning though, Trump seems pissed at the threat of "his" deal falling through - and mostly at Israel. He's been screaming at them in all caps on social media to turn their planes around (and do a "plane wave????") and stop. Also dropped the f-bomb to reporters saying that neither country "knew what the fuck they were doing."

Also, circumstantially, it seems like part of the ceasefire deal involved lifting some sanctions on Iran that he put on the in his first term (and Biden maintained) so that China can freely buy oil from them.

Anyway it's telling that you always go straight to personal attacks. If it was me I'd probably just say "wtf, I hate my stupid fucking genocidal country, don't assume I support war and ethnic cleansing just because I live here"

Ding ding.

Personally I'm pissed off that my country bombed Iran over the weekend and I don't at all agree that it was a necessary action to take.

It's possible to disagree with military action that you're country is taking, especially when it's egregiously stupid and escalatory.
