The Biden administration is pressing Israel to do more to protect civilians. But it has not publicly discussed any consequences if it does not.
The Biden administration showed no new signs on Friday that it was prepared to take a tougher line on Israel’s military operation against Hamas as desperate conditions in Gaza grew even worse, with civilian deaths rising and aid groups warning of shortages of water, food and medicine.
Biden officials say Israel must do more to limit civilian casualties and allow humanitarian aid into Gaza. But that still leaves America’s position far from that of many Arab countries, which are demanding an immediate cease-fire and blame Israel for what they call a profoundly disproportionate response to the Oct. 7 Hamas attacks.
During a visit to Washington on Friday, ministers from Saudi Arabia and other Arab nations said at a news conference that the Israeli offensive must stop, with Jordan’s foreign minister, Ayman Safadi, accusing Israel of committing a “massacre.”
In New York on Friday, the United States vetoed a Security Council resolution drafted by the United Arab Emirates that called for a humanitarian cease-fire — a lonely position against 13 votes in favor.

Hanas was the one who busted through the gates of Israel. I believe the killing should stop on both sides. Hana’s is a terrorist organization who has always hated Israel. Hanna’s was bombing neighborhoods and setting people’s homes on fire to lure them out into the street just so that Hamas can blow their heads off.

Biden must take action against israel

I think that Biden has not done anything to help Gaza is insane to me.

I think that our President isn't in the headspace for this position our country has put him in. I don't say that to discredit him it's the reality of the situation. We need someone who fully understands what's going on not only in our country but others as well.

Give Palestine back to it's people
