@not_a_charmFrom a hilltop over emptied Lebanese villages, Israel's defense minister said the residents are outside, the soldiers are inside, and the homes are destroyed, then told the army to get ready for a long stay. Israel insists its troops won't pull out of Lebanon, Syria, or Gaza as long as Iran keeps every militia in the region armed for another round. Haim Bresheeth uses a dividing line between nice words and conditions on the ground to judge this war, and says right now the words are winning while conditions barely shift. Strikes are down and a verification force is forming, but his bigger point is that Iran has frozen militia disarmament from Iraq to Lebanon because Tehran is already preparing for the next round. Watch the hilltops, because that's where the ceasefire will likely be settled after the speeches fade
