President Biden hails Lebanon ceasefire as ‘good news’

US President Joe Biden called a ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah “good news” after Israel’s cabinet approves the deal. He said Israel will take effect at 4am (02:00 GMT) on Wednesday. Biden also said Israel has “destroyed” Hezbollah’s infrastructure in southern Lebanon, adding the deal is meant to bring about a “permanent cessation of hostilities”. Over the next 60 days, the Lebanese army will “take control of their own territory”, he said. Biden added that Israel retains its right to “self-defence” if the deal is broken.

Mentioning about Lebanese refugees while forgetting about Palestinian refugees, don’t trust these hypocrites

[EdShehadeh]

Hypocrites. This colonizer is a devil and should be in jail

[davidmitten]

this "man" is despicable....

[rodk]

They think we forget the 80+ years of violent and deadly occupation.

[Samira-yidc]

He just vetoed a ceasefire and Palestinian statehood. What a lier. I can’t stand this evil hypocrite liar

[drgregoryhaus]

americant clowns acting like they're the saviors yet again

[ronturner]

"Bold"? Boldly commiting war crimes.

[sho-na]

Absolutely sickened to my core. The lies, the lies, the lies.

[MAHMED-sh]

Remember the veto in the UN to not ceasefire.

[TheBlueGrinchofSurgery]

Funny how he praises 70k Israelis are refugees, while he waves off the 300k Lebanese refugees by saying "oh yeah, them too". What an old git

[pharmacotherapyfoundationh]

The thing that shock is the ability to lie and believe your lies ….lights are on and no one home ..

[lesaamoore]

What a propaganda speech. Free Palestine!

[robertjohnson]

I don't believe a word of it. It sounds like Netanyahu wrote his speech.... lol

[Life]

What about
Ceasefire now, Ceasefire now, Ceasefire now in Gaza

[farahmeer]

What about Gaza cease-fire? May be Israel is getting beaten bad in Lebanon or else they wouldnt stop. Gaza did not start the attack either. Attacks started 50 years ago or so

[ellen]

This is the man whose actions made me decide I'm not a democrat anymore. If this is what the party stands for now, I am not that. He's a monster who is responsible for as many deaths as Hitler.

[Trey]

I wonder what they give President Biden to wake him up.

[kings_of_tekken]

At this point, I don't care what Biden

[andynewfriends]

No wonder why Americans don't like to watch the BS news anymore.
