US General Oversees 'Ceasefire' While Israel Escalates
Lebanon's Aoun reportedly told a US general, "No one wants to return to war." A sweet nod to diplomacy, except when that 'ceasefire' is enforced by a foreign power (the US, here overseeing) while one side is systematically armed for escalation. (Source: Al-Monitor). We're meant to believe this peace mission is earnest, not a cynical theater for continued regional destabilization. History provides
the context conveniently omitted: the 2006 Lebanon War, where US unconditional support for Israel enabled extensive destruction and civilian casualties. The US continues to supply billions in military aid annually, while simultaneously dispatching generals to broker 'peace.' It's like watching an arsonist call the fire department, then lecture the homeowner on fire safety. How many times will
regional leaders have to declare a desire for peace before the US stops enabling the primary aggressor?
