Netanyahu holds the line; Trump escalates the threats, Lebanon is the lever

Desk note: Wire framing tends to treat Trump's Truth Social posts and the southern-Lebanon exchange as separate beats. Monexus reads them as a single coordinated posture inside a single news cycle: Netanyahu drawing the line on the ground, Trump drawing the line in the rhetoric, both pointing at Tehran.
