One of the ceasefire talks ended because Israel kept sending missiles in the middle of it.
Unless US completely accepts all the terms, Yahu can just go “nah” and keep US in war. Even once the president changes.
Only other option is we stop funding Israel their missiles, but obviously that’s antisemitic. /s

This is because the reality in the region is that the US is assisting Israel in a war of territorial expansion that involves all of those countries. Iran knows that it’s not enough to merely convince the west to stop attacking just them, because they know that this alone does not cease Israel’s lebenstraum. if Palestine and Lebanon fall then Syria and Iraq are next, and that means doom for Iran.

Not very realistic with China and Russia being the military backers of Iran.

What’s not very realistic?

Given their inaction before (and their involvement in starting it) it’s probably not a hard requirement but something they thought they’d toss in there.

Ngl, using their political leverage to try to end two instances of genocide does look pretty good.

This is semantics, but what’s happening in Lebanon certainly includes War Crimes but it’s not comparable to what Genocide means. Let’s not water down crimes like this. If the Hezbollah are “trapped” between the rest of Lebanon and Israel then that’s the result of their own actions, no pity from me.
