Vance says that the US agreed to a ceasefire that includes "America's allies -- both Israel and the Gulf Arab states." He then says it's "dumb" for Iran to insist that the ceasefire include Lebanon, "which has nothing to do with them." So the US can include its allies in a ceasefire, but Iran can't do the same?
