What happened with this war? There were negotiations, then suddenly, there weren't.

[-] drkt@scribe.disroot.org 15 points 8 hours ago

There were negotiations

Was Iran made aware of this?

[-] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 7 points 6 hours ago

Before or after the last negotiation team was killed?

Iran patience ran out. The cease fire was supposed to include the end of fighting in Lebanon . Iran warned Israel again again and again to stop , Israel refused and attacked the heart Beirut

You forgot the whole part about Israel warning Hizbollah that it would attack Beirut if they attacked the northern part of Israel.
Guess who attacked the northern part of Israel.

Maybe the invading country should stop invading? Tiny Israel just needs to do some more lebensraum. Why won't those barbaric Muslims let them steal their lands and homes?

The cease fire was broken on day one when USA blockaded the ports, Iran demanded ships pay tolls for passing through the strait, and Israel and Hezbollah never got the memo to stop shooting at each other.

'Negotiating' in those conditions is performative at best.

Negotiations require at least some modicum of trust and good faith.

It's Shrodinger's war. Both a war and not a war at the same time. Neither side wants the war to continue, but neither side wants to back down.

[-] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 6 hours ago

One side, cough Isreal, is definitely wants it to continue so they can continue the killing

[-] frongt@lemmy.zip 2 points 5 hours ago

The US government does too. Not the people, just enough people in the right places.
