At this point it's very clear it's not Biden's policy that is holding things up. It's very clearly Netanyahu and his cabinet. This isn't even a question anymore as Benny Gantz straight said so when he resigned, and then Netanyahu dissolved his war cabinet, so he's basically acting in direct control of Israeli forces it seems.
Biden and team had a ceasefire agreement, Israel said they agreed, Palestine said they agreed, yet Israel refuses to sign or stop military assault. As far as the "undecided" voters go, they aren't going to get their way. The US as a nation is not going to jeopardize ties with Israel as a proxy military force and ground position in the Middle East for a small percentage of voters. It is what it is, but put the blame where it belongs in the here and now.
The United States should throw Israel under a bus.
The US has little to no influence over Israeli domestic politics. Pretending that Israel is a puppet state of the US is... delusional.
Well then they won't mind when we stop providing US made weapons to continue their aggressions, cutoff the billions in annual support, and stop blocking international efforts at holding them accountable. Why would Netanyahu be addressing our government if we had no skin in the game?
You're either uninformed or trolling, we are Israel's largest ally and we constantly shield them from international repercussions.

You don't understand, this is the only chance for the east to eradicate Israel AND the USA.
It doesn't matter if their moral stance is built on lies and dishonesty. Morality was never their lynchpin.
