This is the world as we wake up today:

5:49am Hezbollah leader praises Hamas attacks and makes grim warning to Israel
5:53am Israeli PM: No ceasefire until hostages return home
7:07am ‘We are going to be killed’: Reporter’s emotional outburst on live TV from Gaza

Welcome to the world of banana republics.
