The Israelis are making clear, they intended to continue the war in Lebanon, even though the MOU explicitly calls for an end to the war in Lebanon.

Today, Vance threw some heat at the Israelis.

JD Vance tells Israel 'you can't kill your way out' of security problems

Vance pointed to criticism of the deal from Israeli officials, including far-right ministers Bezalel Smotrich and Itamar Ben-Gvir.

“And I guess my response to them would be: What is your exact proposal? You’re a country of nine million people. You can’t just kill your way out of solving every single national security problem that you have,” he said.

He called on Israel to let negotiations play out, and to “give a little bit of credit to the United States of America, which I think has been an incredible partner for the Israeli government for a long time”.

Not surprisingly, the folks on TYT are over the moon, at a leading US pol putting the US' interests ahead of Israel's.

Meanwhile, Hannity implies the MOU is Fake.

Sean Hannity says the MOU with Iran will be “meaningless anyway, because that's not what the deal's going to be”

SEAN HANNITY (HOST): I had a long conversation with Steve Witkoff and — a long conversation — and it went into great specificity and detail way beyond this memorandum of understanding.

He didn't tell me it was off the record, that it is so much deeper than that term sheet. It is — it is so — so different, and then there's other pressure. JD Vance was on some show saying that, you know, that there was a lot of pressure just to get something on paper so that all these discussions they didn't want to have it out in public because there still are factions that are, you know, competing for power within the Iranian regime.

And I don't even think they're going to have a ceremony and sign this stupid thing because it's meaningless anyway, because that's not what the deal's going to be.

Meanwhile, other talking heads, like Mark Levin, are saying this is nothing but a kabuki dance to get past the mid-terms, then the US will resume the war.

Mark Levin says Iran war should continue after 2026 elections as Netanyahu reportedly lobbies right-wing pundits

Conservative podcaster Mark Levin on Tuesday said the United States should "knock out" Iran after the midterm elections, saying the recently signed peace deal was "rushed" and offers a great deal of benefits for Tehran.

Levin, a close ally of President Donald Trump who is pro-Israel, made his remarks shortly after reports circulated that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is trying to sway public opinion about the Iran deal through right-wing influences.

More 17D chess? Trump trying to con the American people with a fake peace process, to get one more vote out of them, before he resumes what is most profitable for himself?
