The ceasefire agreement calls for the creation of &#8220;pilot zones&#8221; where the Lebanese military would &#8220;take exclusive control&#8221; over &#8220;nonstate actors&#8221; (meaning Hezbollah). The question is how enforceable that really is.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Trump said yesterday that the war in Iran was &#8220;not a big thing&#8221; for the U.S.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We have the highest stock market in history with a military conflict going on, or a war\u2014some people call it war, some people call it a military\u2014it&#8217;s not a big thing for us,&#8221; said the president. &#8220;We have a great military.

He still seems oriented toward hammering out a ceasefire with Iran, but sticking points\u2014like removing enriched uranium from Iran&#8217;s territory, so that its nuclear program further stalls\u2014remain.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, the war in Iran\u00a0<em>does\u00a0<\/em>in fact appear to be a big thing for one important contingent: the U.S. House of Representatives. Yesterday, they voted to have the president withdraw the U.S. military from conflict with Iran or gain congressional approval to continue, with four Republicans defecting from their own party to vote with Democrats. Now, the war powers resolution goes to the Senate, though it&#8217;s not totally clear how Trump will play this if it passes there. He&#8217;s repeatedly cast doubt on the constitutionality of the War Powers Act, but simultaneously does seem interested in winding down the conflict in Iran. It&#8217;s possible he gets belligerent, or it&#8217;s possible he uses congressional pressure as an excuse to do a thing he already wanted to do: pursue a ceasefire.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Scenes from New York: <\/em><\/strong>The Knicks won!
