A US envoy, Hady Amr, has arrived in Tel Aviv for de-escalation talks as unrest between Israel and the Palestinians continues. It was reported by BBC.
Hady Amr will take part in talks with Israeli, Palestinian and UN officials and reinforce what US diplomats said was the need for a "sustainable calm".
As it was reported earlier, on late May 11, a huge missile attack occurred in Tel Aviv and its vicinities. HAMAS movement claimed the responsibility, stating that 130 missiles were fired in the direction of the Israeli capital city. According to the outlet, the alarm sirens blared in practically every large settlement in Israel, as the rockets fell in the downtown of Tel Aviv and its suburbs; it became arguably the largest missile attack on Israel so far. The shooting began at about 8.45 p.m. local time. The missiles fell in several central districts of the country. Some projectiles hit their targets, but most of the rockets were downed by the anti-missile defense system, the Iron Dome.
According to Aviv Kochavi, Chief of the General Staff of the IDF, the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) landed attacks on more than 500 targets in the Gaza Strip, killing dozens of Palestinian militants.
Hamas must have been hurt badly the other night. They won’t wave the white flag so they call Biden for relief.
I’d be mildly surprised if either side meets with him. What could it possibly accomplish if they did?
In other words, Hamas has gotten tired of getting their a&& kicked. I suggest that Israel require the US envoy quarantine for the next two weeks.
I’m sure there is another sh** load of money for the Palestinians.
Media will give Biden credit anyway.
Let me guess ... We will offer money to Hamas. Either that, or Biden will want to move the entire Palestinian population here or to Europe. Maybe both. Whatever is offered, it will not be from an America First position. More like America Last or not at all.
Will Amr be inspecting the Gaza Tunnel Complex?
“...money for the Palestinians...”
The photo on the link is of a huge aircraft to transport one envoy. Do you think it has pallet loads of cash for the Palestinians, a la Obama’s give away to Iran???
I hope the Israelis hit Hamas again just as Hady Amr is reporting ‘we are making progress’ at a negotiation presser.
And Israel says “Hold that thought until we finally wipe out Hamas; we’ll get back to you”
Why doesn’t don’t they talk to Hamas?
They started it per usual.
more to last post - Didn’t Biden already give the Palestinians, or Hamas, $100 million his first week in office. If so, that is probably how Hamas paid for those Iranian rockets. Paid for by the US taxpayer. Proof enough Susan Rice is running the WH.
Hady Amr...born in Lebanon, and has close ties to the region
Money. It's a hit. Don't give me that do-goody-good bullsh!t.
Biden already paid Hamas $277 million and they started this war. If Biden will pay them another $277 million maybe they'll stop and the press will want Biden to get a Nobel Peace Prize.
Why Tel Aviv? Why not “Palestine”?
We need to have sent someone to encourage the Israelis to kick the sh*t out of the Palis.

We could be treated to the spectacle of an American envoy telling Bibi, "You filthy Jews are killing heroic Palestinian freedom fighters in their territories for no discernible reason! Stop it, Jew dog!"
The days of the U.S. being an honest, neutral broker are gone. Neither the Israeli or the Palestinian side should trust anyone Biden sends.
It allows Hamas to resupply themselves.
