We know the two men had contentious calls about Iran, with Trump pushing for a diplomatic solution to end the war and reopen the Strait of Hormuz, which Iran now controls, and Netanyahu pushing back.
And keep in mind, both these men are facing elections this year.
The Iran war is not popular in the U.S., but it does have broad support in Israel.
And expanding the war in Lebanon derails those peace efforts with Iran.
And Netanyahu put out a terse statement yesterday after his call with Trump that sounded like he was the one calling the shots.
He said he told Trump Israel would bomb Beirut if Hezbollah doesn't hold its fire, that Israel's position remains unchanged, and that the military will continue to operate as planned in southern Lebanon.
Now, for its part, Hezbollah says it wants a complete end to the war, a full Israeli withdrawal,
But it does seem the group has accepted for now this partial ceasefire, according to Lebanon's embassy in Washington.
Well, mediators like Pakistan, Qatar, Turkey, they were all pushing yesterday to salvage these talks.
There was a flurry of calls between them and Iran yesterday.
But Trump told CNBC in a phone interview yesterday that talks with Iran were taking too long.
He signaled he was losing interest.
When asked if he thought the talks were collapsing, he said he didn't care and thought, quote, they started to get very boring.
He said the only thing he cares about is Iran not getting nuclear weapons.
But right after that interview, he posted online, quote, talks are continuing at a rapid pace with Iran.
Thanks, A.
