Israeli officials took to social media today to declare they will not abide by President Trump’s ceasefire agreement when it comes specifically to Lebanon. Pro-Israeli influencers and voices in the United States were also upset with the deal.
Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s critics used the deal to attack him politically.
Comments are below.
Israeli National Security Minister Ben-Gvir:
Trump’s agreement does not bind us. Israel is not subject to the United States, and we are an independent and sovereign nation!
We emphasize: We love the USA and are grateful to President Trump. And yet, the State of Israel is not a banana republic.
Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich:
The agreement with Iran is bad for Israel and for the entire free world. Period.
The joint campaign had many achievements in weakening Iran, and they will not go to waste.
We will have to continue the campaign to topple the regime ourselves and in creative ways, and ensure that Iran will never have nuclear weapons.
