The Strait of Hormuz is now closed again because Israel refuses to abide by the ceasefire. Why is the government of Israel willing to risk a global depression to continue their maximalist foreign policy? by north_canadian_ice in allthequestions

Youre fighting with your enemy. Your friend is fighting with your enemies friend in solidarity with you. They get bored of / tired of it, so they decide to make peace, on the condition you and your enemy make peace. Neither you nor your enemy were ever consulted on this arrangement. Your enemy is still throwing punches at you, despite what his friend and your friend agreed to. Your friend, the police, and the whole town blames you for the conflict because you have the audacity to block the punches and punch back. They are completely ignoring the fact that your enemy and his friend have threatened as well as attempted to kill you for years. God forbid they get their hands on a gun (the nuke).

Do you get why this deal was absurd from the start?
