It seems like whenever I do hear about one, it's pretty routinely violated(usually by a particular side like Israel but still). It feels weird to agree to one if there's no intent to follow through.

Edit: Israel is a pretty clear example; which is that they're conducting a genocide, but I've noticed this in Ukraine/Russia as well

Israel does not want peace. Military industrial complex does not want peace. Oil and commodities speculators (Wall Street) do not want peace. Techo fascists and Zionazis do not want peace.

Trump only did the peace deal to smooth things over the 4th of July weekend. 1 week later shocked-pikachu back at it.

What I don't understand is Iran even thinking they could trust a deal. They should say they don't negotiate with terrorists.

Sun Tzu says "words of peace, but no treaty, are a sign of a plot"
