Katz to UN envoy for Lebanon: Israel will show 'zero tolerance' for ceasefire violations [View all]

This is the title to an article dated 11/26/24 in Reuters regarding he statement of the Israeli foreign Minister about the proposed ceasefire. Apparently everyone at the UN is too afraid to ask "Shouldn't the 'zero tolerance' go both ways?" Oh silly me for bringing up the periodic UNIFIL reports that referenced lots of violations by both sides month after month for year after year. But only one side is lectured to. The side doing the lecturing chooses to answer about none of their own violations. It's not a question of one violation causing another but rather simply put a violation is a violation. Unless of course things are to be one-sided and if that is the case the history of one-sided treatment in agreements is that the people receiving the benefit of that one-sided agreement find ways to always claim being wronged as cover for further actions. They do so because there is no mechanism to restrain them from violating the agreement and gaining advantage after advantage over the other party to the agreement who is now helpless and has no recourse about those violations.
