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.

And China...
I support every effort to kill every last one of the fundamentalists they can find.... EVERY SINGLE ONE...
just last week they were asking them to delay
now it is time’s up?
Lines are drawn. Who gives a shit if the uninformed slobs let the msm form their ignorant opinion? I wouldn’t ask the average pig on the street his/her opinion on what goes on a hotdog. I’d just as soon shove it down their throat.
they are telling Israel they cannot protect themselves
no self defense for Israel
RE: Who lasts longer, Israel or Biden?
Dr.Jill: Do I get to chime in here?
Reply: No, let’s stick to politics only.
is biden laying the groundwork for the veto of Israeli aid?
oops! time’s up!
Exactly. He didn’t ask anyone if our support would erode. He’s just giving comfort to the enemy.
As they should.
RE: I wouldn’t ask the average pig on the street his/her opinion on what goes on a hotdog.
Remember the Jesse Watters person on the street questioning where he asked “Who is getting your vote for President?”
(at that time it was Trump or Hillary)
Several said “Obama again.”
Watters said “He is not on the ballot. By law he cannot run for a third term.”
ALL looked shocked, MANY looked angry at Watters as if he were cheating them.
If Israel is forced to halt its anti-terror operation in Gaza... mid-way...
It’s like if a fireman decides to extinguish only half of a house which is on fire.
It would be nonsensical.
The only thing that could be tried, is for Egypt to open its border for Gaza women and children. That’s it.
There can be no ceasefire. Because that’s the only thing HAMAS needs to thrive.
Where was the Biden administration protecting innocent civilians on October 7th instead of financing HAMAS and Iranian terrorism?
Blowing up entire city blocks and killing hundreds of women and children for a possible Hamas commander deep underground is not good PR for the United States.
We know he will sell our USA out for money. He still takes orders from Bozo.
“In Ramah was a voice heard, Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not.” The Day of Vengeance is in the heart of G-d. He will one day answer the cries of Rachel Imanu for all of the murdered innocents of Israel throughout history. Until that great and terrible day, we are to hold the line and defend ‘with fury poured out’, the Land, the Covenant, and the people of Israel.
Agreed. Bozo is and always has been muslim and has his own marching orders. I keep my faith in Jesus. Everything else will fail.
There have been no signs that Israel’s offensive is slowing.Are there still bricks stacked more than two deep? If so, slowing is premature.
...killing hundreds of women and children
《》《》
That was NOT done by usa or Israel.
Thats Hamas talking points, they lie.
Amen!
God is STILL in charge, no matter what it looks like.
What the enemy means for evil, God will use for good.
You are correct sir.
