Biden asked for one and reported Netanyahu said no.
The headline sounds like he’s just dismissing his staffers
Then sanction Israel, they are operating free of consequences while we all watch genocide take place. At this point supplying weapons to them or Hamas is a coin flip. They will both use them to conduct atrocities.
Then yeet the aid and see if that changed things. When it doesn’t, Apply sanctions.
When that doesn’t work, Biden can say they tried. But right now, biden isn’t really trying at all.
Biden has enormous ability to pressure Israel to stop the bombing, but he doesn't. The headline is pretty accurate; asking nicely and doing nothing are the same thing.
Ffs. We should stop supplying Israel with weapons and all other aid until they change their approach to battling hamas. Hamas should be exterminated, no doubt. But not at the cost of so many civilians. I get that there will be collateral damage, it’s unavoidable. But Israel is imposing collective punishment on a bunch of non-combatants. There is no regard for civilians at all.
At the same time, the US should greatly ramp up clandestine efforts to fuck Iran’s government as thoroughly as possible.
Better yet, we could get the Zionists off the US government welfare tit and let them figure out how to do it without us.
