Here's why Iran’s attacks on Israel didn't cross Trump’s red lines
President Donald Trump is still pursuing a long-term agreement to end the Iran war, even after Iran and Israel exchanged long-range missile strikes over the weekend for the first time in roughly two months, threatening to derail the process and drag the region back into war.
TL;DR
- President Trump is pursuing a long-term agreement with Iran.

- Trump believes both Iran and Israel are seeking an immediate ceasefire.
- The weekend's events began with Hezbollah rocket fire into Israel.
