White House officials said Thursday they had coordinated a ceasefire plan that the US and France presented a day earlier with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and believed Israel was fully on board with it. And they indicated surprise and disappointment that Israel had rejected it and that the Prime Minister’s Office was now saying Netanyahu had never indicated he would back it.

A French official also made clear to The Times of Israel that the ceasefire initiative had been coordinated with Israel.

While still in the air, however, Netanyahu’s office issued a firm denial that he had assented to the idea, calling it an “American-French proposal that the prime minister didn’t even respond to.”

"So we're in agreement with this?"

"As long as the weapons are coming."

"Yes yes, send the weapons."

"HA! GOT EM! Cancel that shit again we got what we wanted!"

"We'd love to be able to cancel the weapons shipments in retaliation but AIPAC... Also something something that is antisemitic."
