Israel moving towards Hezbollah ceasefire but issues remain, spokesperson says

This is the headline from a Reuters article dated 11/25/24. How many times do they think they can go through this dance of "Oh it's close" , "Issues remain" etc. before it becomes ridiculous to report in this fashion. All any of this is amounts to BS going nowhere. Netanyahu is playing for time until the coming administration in the US and then he will move for anything at all he wants for as long as he wants. As long as he keeps shedding blood and taking land he will have complete support form the right wing parties in Israel and that will be enough to keep him in power.

Gaza is essentially gone. That was insured by the November 5th election and the stupidity of hamas on October 7. JohnSJ Nov 25 #3

I have no doubt that the Lebanon hostilities will cease. Gaza though you can write-off though, and definitely forget JohnSJ Nov 25 #2

about any two-state solution, that has been flushed down the toilet on November 5.

Good job uncommitted voters, Palestinian protesters, abandon Harris, etc. who refused to vote for Harris. You have helped seal the deal to insure that.

ended the practice of detaining radical settlers. Basically turning them loose to do whatever.

something. I copy/paste headlines directly from the web site sourced. When I just now did a search on Yahoo for the original headline it does come up as I had it originally and the search results indicate it as being Reuters. But when you click on the story from the search results it takes you to the later story you referenced. The search result in fact has my original headline in more than one result each with a Reuters credit. One in fact with a picture. The original story sourcing was, according to Reuters, an "unnamed US official". Quite odd the way Reuters did this because it means nobody can post a link to them with any confidence the intended referenced article is what someone will be taken to later. Here is one of the search results and a general search for my original headline should bring up the one that has the picture also. Also a link to a radio news web site with the headline and sourced as Reuters. Very odd.
