If I have been understanding things correctly, Trudeau has been calling for a "humanitarian truce". While "truce" and "ceasefire" may pretty much mean the same thing to us layman, in international legalese, they have quite a different meaning.
"Ceasefire" means something along the lines of "sustained lack of military operations, with negotiations involved to secure a longer term peace". On the other hand, "humanitarian truce" means a shorter period of no fighting to provide a window to facilitate the delivery of humanitarian supplies.
You can still call Turd names for not stepping up to call for a "ceasefire", but it isn't like Turd is staying completely quite, and abstaining from calling Israel out for its atrocities.
