War is over? (If Israel wants it)

TL;DR: the cunt basically caved in. Per the Graun:

According to state media, Iran will only accept the war’s conclusion once details are finalised in line with a 10-point peace plan reportedly submitted to the White House via Pakistani intermediaries.
The list of 10 points, published by Iranianstate media, include a number of conditions the US has rejected in the past. The plan requires:

* The lifting of all primary and secondary sanctions on Iran.
* Continued Iranian control over the strait of Hormuz.
* US military withdrawal from the Middle East.
* An end to attacks on Iran and its allies.
* The release of frozen Iranian assets.
* A UN security council resolution making any deal binding.

In the version released in Farsi, Iran also included the phrase “acceptance of enrichment” for its nuclear program. But for reasons that remain unclear, that phrase was missing in English versions shared by Iranian diplomats to journalists.

All of this still has to be negotiated and agreed to, of course, but the mere fact that President Robert E. Lee called this “workable” suggests he’s generally cool with it. I think the main sticking point will be Israel, who expanded the conflict into Lebanon just for the hell of it; Bibi apparently said he welcomes the ceasefire but insists upon leaving Lebanon out of it. I have a feeling Israel will treat this alleged ceasefire like they did the one in Gaza, i.e. the people there can go to hell and Israel can do whatever the fuck it wants.

Anyway, that might be Armageddon staved off for another couple of weeks. Possibly. If Netanyahu can keep his hand off it for long enough. I don’t have any more words for this whole debacle.
