And then Rubio attacks Iran.
And he said, we can't have an end to these hostilities and conflicts as long as the Iranian proxies are launching missiles and drones from Iraq and participating in terrorism like Hamas did and Hezbollah did.

We do, Rubio, we do have an end of hostilities that we're trying to reach.
It's in the MOU and it's in the technical talks that you don't want to be a part of.
So Rubio is using the pre-war rhetoric and war rhetoric and not the let's reach resolution rhetoric.
Now, you may...
Like Rubio's rhetoric better?
I don't know.
My only point is that's inconsistent with what the deal is, that Trump signed in Versailles and held up while Rubio was behind him looking all angry.
Watch what Rubio says here, play this clip.
And just so you can see, we go into the writing here of what's in the MOU.
Here's the Islamabad MOU between the United States.
Paragraph one, the United States of America and Iran and their allies in the current war are signing this MOU to declare the immediate and permanent termination of the military operations on all fronts, including Lebanon, and undertake from now on to initiate
to not initiate any war or military operation against each other.
The final deal will confirm the permanent termination of war on all fronts, including Lebanon and other provisions of this paragraph.
It's built in to the MOU.
