TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) — Israel said Sunday it is stopping the entry of all goods and supplies into the Gaza Strip and warned of “additional consequences” if Hamas does not accept a new proposal for an extension of the ceasefire.

    Bet they saw just how serious Trump is about fellating expansionist authoritarians and decided to seize the opportunity.

        Yes. Contrary to troll opinion, the Biden administration did in fact push back on Israel. It wasn’t effective, but it happened.

          did it? or was it all for show? Seems he made “red lines” that were promptly ignored and crossed, and his response was to send more weapons. Is that what you’d call pushing back? We all got the war and the political outcome that AIPAC paid for, and DNC leadership cashed the checks that bought that outcome.

          And you call anyone who lives in this awful reality a “troll”? Well then I call you Blue-maga, or BM for short. And you’re also a chump.

          While it cracked down on protestors in the US? Yeah sure… Prove it’s nothing more than controlled opposition.

            Biden did not crack down on protestors. Universities used their local campus police to crack down on protesters. There was no federal involvement.

              Buddy, the cope is real.

              https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/us-campus-protests-ucla-incident-1.7191441

              U.S. President Joe Biden on Thursday rejected calls from student protesters to change his approach to the war in Gaza while insisting that “order must prevail” as college campuses across the country face a wave of violence, outrage and fear.

              […]

              “People have the right to get an education, the right to get a degree, the right to walk across the campus safely without the fear of being attacked,” he said.

              He largely sidestepped protesters’ demands, which have included ending U.S. support for Israeli military operations. Asked after his remarks whether the demonstrations would prompt him to consider changing course, Biden responded with a simple “no.”

              If that isn’t tacit approval of the crackdowns I don’t know what is.

                You said this.

                While it cracked down on protestors

                You can’t move the goalpost to this:

                whether the demonstrations would prompt him to consider changing course, Biden responded with a simple “no.”

                Saying you aren’t going to change your position is not, “Biden cracked down on protestors.”

                  Sure, but doing so while saying that “order must prevail” and claiming that “people are getting attacked on campus” is definitely tacit approval of the crack down.

            You claimed no pushback. I provided proof of pushback. Trump wants Gaza cleansed of all Palestinians.

            Bodycount wasn’t your claim.

              No, they really didn’t do any genuine pushback, just empty rhetoric while continuing to provide billions worth of weapons unconditionally while Netanyahu ignored every “red line” with zero consequences.

              The rhetoric coming out of the White House, when it has been focused on peace or restraint, rather than continuous war, has been undercut at every turn by its actions. The constant supply of weapons — $17.9 billion of bullets, bombs, shells, and other military aid in the past year — has allowed Israel to keep waging its war on Gaza, and in recent weeks, expand that war to Lebanon and threaten to escalate its conflict with Iran. Despite documentation of U.S. weapons being used in probable war crimes, and credible allegations that Israel is committing genocide in its war on Gaza, the bombs have continued to flow.
