Netanyahu said that there were three reasons to pursue a ceasefire:
1. to focus on the threat from Iran;
2. replenish depleted arms supplies
3. and rest tired reservists; and to isolate Hamas

The terrorists are doing the same...

Netanyahu noted what he said was the group’s weakness after 13 months of fighting, saying:
1. “We have set [Hezbollah] back decades,
2. eliminated … its top leaders,
3. destroyed most of its rockets and missiles,
4. neutralised thousands of fighters,
5. and obliterated years of terror infrastructure near our border.”

Yet -- still standing, still fighting, still firing
