BEIRUT, Nov 1 (Reuters) - The U.S. asked Lebanon to declare a unilateral ceasefire with Israel to revive stalled talks to end hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah, a senior Lebanese political source and a senior diplomat said - a claim denied by Lebanon’s prime minister.
But a unilateral declaration was seen as a non-starter in Lebanon, the sources said, where it would likely be equated with a surrender.
Hochstein told them that if Hezbollah unilaterally declared a ceasefire, he “could have something to present” to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as a diplomatic initiative.
Unilateral means one-sided. So the demand is Hezbollah and Lebanon cease firing but Israel does not.
‘Please stop trying to shoot the genociders, it’s really upsetting them’
“Please stop attacking the people who harmed innocent Lebanese people on Lebanese soil without the notification of your government, and who are still lobbing missiles over your border.”
…And they thought it would work? How dumb are they?
Maybe the US should tell Israel to stop invading Lebanon instead.
Unilateral what the fuck? How does that even make sense?
