Rachel Blevins U.S. LIED ABOUT LEBANON CEASEFIRE 09.04.2026 eng

When Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif was relaying the message that progress was being made toward a ceasefire deal on Tuesday, he was doing so with the Trump Admin signing off on the wording of his messages, according to reports. That wording included the announcement of a ceasefire, just before President Trump’s deadline, which Sharif said included the U.S. and Iran, “along with their allies,” and was effective immediately: “everywhere including Lebanon and elsewhere.” Yet, the Trump Admin now claims they never approved the inclusion of a ceasefire for Lebanon. How convenient that their claims come after Trump got his temporary propaganda victory with a ceasefire before his deadline, AND after Netanyahu got his, with a horrific Israeli massacre in Lebanon that left hundreds of civilians dead and wounded.
