Two things happened last week that every major news outlet covered separately. They are not separate.
A reported agreement between the Trump administration's representatives and Hezbollah was struck to cease hostilities in Israel.
The same day, rockets and drones from Hezbollah rained down on Israeli military targets. This raises serious questions about who really controls events in the Middle East and what kind of leverage the United States has with terrorist organizations like Hezbollah.
When Trump negotiated a ceasefire between these two parties, he was acting to protect American interests by reducing our involvement in an increasingly unstable region. The fact that this agreement appears now to be ignored raises the specter of deeper issues at play.
The timing is too convenient for those who stand to benefit from continued conflict and chaos in the Middle East. Follow the money, and you'll see who has a vested interest in seeing this deal fail.
Hezbollah's actions are part of a larger pattern of aggression that we've seen throughout Trump's presidency. Each time they're called out on their behavior by US leadership, there seems to be little repercussion or consequence. Could this be because those pulling the strings behind the scenes have their own interests at heart?
As Israel faces another day of rocket attacks from Hezbollah, it's crucial we understand who is truly in control here.
The question remains: If a deal can't hold between one of the world's most powerful nations and a terrorist organization known for its ruthlessness, how strong are American foreign policy promises?
When you see these attacks happen on the heels of an agreement to stop them, it's not just about Hezbollah. It's about who they're taking orders from.
Israel is once again in the crosshairs, and this time there's a new question for America: Is our foreign policy strong enough to enforce stability in one of the world's most volatile regions?
The Eagles know what I'm talking about here. Share widely before this gets buried by the mainstream media.
