President Joe Biden and his top advisers are warning Israel with growing force that it will become increasingly difficult for it to pursue its military goals in Gaza as global outcry intensifies about the scale of humanitarian suffering there.
Biden, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and Secretary of State Antony Blinken – who departed Thursday for Israel with a message on protecting civilian lives – have all explicitly pressed the case in recent private conversations with the Israelis, telling them that eroding support will have dire strategic consequences for Israel Defense Forces operations against Hamas.
Behind the scenes, American officials also believe there is limited time for Israel to try to accomplish its stated objective of taking out Hamas in its current operation before uproar over the humanitarian suffering and civilian casualties – and calls for a ceasefire – reaches a tipping point.
In fact, there is recognition within the administration that that moment may arrive quickly: Some of the president’s close advisers believe that there are only weeks, not months, until rebuffing the pressure on the US government to publicly call for a ceasefire becomes untenable, sources told CNN.
There have been no signs that Israel’s offensive is slowing. The Israeli military said Thursday it is surrounding Gaza City and “deepening” its operations there. CNN witnessed the skies of Northern Gaza illuminated by flares and explosions as the bombardment intensified late Thursday night.

IIRC——THERE HAS BEEN ONLY ONE ELECTION-—POWER FOREVER.
Yeah, they need to follow our example and keep it under 20 years or so.
Such bullcrap. After the atrocity that happened, we are guilting them out? In scale that would be like an attack on America killing over 50,000 and 3,000 raped and kidnapped.
Joe Biden will criticize Israel and Netanyahu publicly but he won't actually do anything.
A moral government would announce that the USA is immediately and permanently ending all financial aid to the terrorist “Palestinian” people.
Mr. Bibi Netanyahu should call cagalistroso and say, “Push it way, way up where the Sun never shines,” then hang up and tell his troops to level The Gaza Strip and kill everyone in it. After that is done he should then nuke Tehran.
Isn’t it amazing that a corrupt circus like Ukraine gets an unlimited chequebook and an endless calendar.
But Israel gets less than one month.
Israel is inconveniently distracting attention from the Uke GloboHomoNazi campaign against decency in Ukraine.
The Nazis are jealous.
Every single US Jew could vote r and not make any difference in national elections, at least to my understanding. They live in urban areas in dem states, for the most part. Donations to political parties might make a difference, though...but who knows.

Add Christians to that want dead democrat list.
Like Ann Coulter said about her being denied the right to speak on a college campus after students screamed and shouted in protests all night and set fire to a police car:
Mob rule overcomes the Constitution and dictates to elected officials. Then rights are curtailed to calm the mob.
From when her book Demonic:How the Liberal Mob Is Endangering America (2011)
Liberal mobs, from student radicals to white-trash racists to anti-war and pro-ObamaCare fanatics today, have consistently used violence to implement their idea of the “general will.”
This is not the American tradition; it is the tradition of Stalin, of Hitler, of the guillotine—and the tradition of the American Left.
I cite this (not that I like a traitor against Trump) because this is what is happening about Israel.
If the popularity wind blows for human rights for victims of terrorists in Israel then fine. If votes and polls go for Hamas and terrorists then too bad for Israel, Dems figure.
A father in Israel had his eye ripped out in front of his wife who was then mutilated in front of their children who were then murdered, by Hamas men who broke into their home. They were noncombatants and unarmed.
Men,women and children are held hostage by men who will not hesitate to torture them to death over the live internet feed if things go against the Hamas cause.
As the heirs of the French Revolution, Democrats have a history that consists of pandering to mobs, time and again
Am Israel Chi.
No other country makes it to the end of the book.
Good idea...Tell Israel that they can’t retaliate...It’s not nice...war is all about being kind...s/
Israel - pay no attention. Eradicate Hamas while you can.
Most of them live in New York City, Miami and Los Angeles.
Let's see. New York is blue. So is California.
Florida is already red.
It might make a difference in the popular vote if the election is close enough.
Zephaniah 2:4-7. Maybe about to be fulfilled? Assuming you are one who doesn’t believe all these prophecies were fulfilled thousands of years ago…. If you think they were, maybe all of this is strangely coincidental to ya…
We were in Afghanistan 20 years, Israel’s been working Gaza 20 days and we are bitching about it. Pretty much sends the message of whose side we (being WH bosses whoever that may be) are really on.
Yeah, Biden and his crew of misfits favor Hamas over Israel.
Gonna get God to curse USA.
BIBLE: Bless Israel, and God will bless you.
Curse Israel and God will curse you.
Looks like Biden et al wants to turn America over to satan.
Kings of the east gathering around God’s precious Israel.
End is near???
To hell with that!
Annihilate Hamas, their infrastructure, their weapons, their supporters, their enablers, and freeze their assets!
No quarter.
No mercy.
No cease fire.
the biden admin’s lip service period of support is over
now they will be anti-Israel their true policy
