as usual i disagree.
trumpf is a showman and the "agreement" has more asterisks than thr usual "american" health insurance.
the true terms and conditions of the "seizefire" remains unknown and im sure there're many loopholes that favor israel in "unlikely" event should there be non-compliance.
just like the minsk.
the US is not agreement-compatible and any agreement it touches will very likely turn to shits. -

it's not directly related to the ceasefire, but that fits too.
specifically Trump posted a video to his social media personally blaming Netenyahu for the Afghanistan and Iraq wars - I initially thought it was a staffers having a laugh, but it's still up and he never disavowed it. further Netenyahu seems to have been excluded from Trump's inauguration, and there are rumours that Benji was effectively forced to accept some of the ceasefire terms he'd previously rejected such as (partial) IDF withdrawal, presumeably because the 'powers that be' are afraid that israel won't be able to recover if the war drags on, win or lose -
