On Wednesday’s broadcast of NPR’s “Morning Edition,” Biden Campaign Co-Chair Sen. Chris Coons (D-DE) stated that it would be “almost impossible” for Israel to go into Rafah “and conduct an operation in a way that isn’t unreasonably dangerous and unsafe and will result in thousands and thousands more civilian casualties.” And the operation definitely can’t “be safely done in the coming weeks.”
Coons said, “Israel has the right, even the obligation, to defend its civilians against Hamas and to continue pursuing Hamas terrorists. But they have to balance that with their obligation to protect civilians and facilitate humanitarian aid going into Gaza. So, a delegation from Israel is now on its way to Washington to meet with our military leadership to consult on how they could possibly conduct a ground invasion into Rafah, where there are still four battalions of Hamas fighters, and allow for civilians to get out of Rafah and conduct an operation in a way that isn’t unreasonably dangerous and unsafe and will result in thousands and thousands more civilian casualties. It’s exceptionally difficult to do, almost impossible, frankly.”

No call for surrounding countries to take in Gaza refugees.
The Obama/Biden regime wants the people of Gaza to remain as human shields to protect Hamas and harm Israel.
That is sexual assault of a minor. The media didn’t ask her until after the election.
Good, because they want to win.
lol
isn’t that the point of poking your nose into their business? to keep them from doing what they need to do!?
O.M.G.
Why don’t you go in there and show IDF how to fight a war. Since you won’t do that, GFYS, Coons.
I remember that.
Twitters “trust and safety” guys who banned people for reporting child sexual exploitation on Twitter suddenly decided that sharing the story was child exploitation and banned people for talking about it.
At the same time as saying that sharing csam materials didn’t violate TOS as “nobody got hurt”.
(Yoel Roth and crew! There’s reason he’s no longer working at Twitter.)
In an operation such as this, a 1:1 ratio of civilians killed to terrorists killed would be unusually low. If we accept both Israel's and Hamas' numbers, this is pretty much the result so far, and I rather fail to see the argument this ratio will get worse.* So I'd say Coons is talking nonsense.
Yo! Coons!! I am calling you out!
*This assumes Israel will not suddenly double or triple the forces being used vs. Hamas, but will use the "grinding" approach it has used so far; corridors for civilians to flee will exist, as they have so far; and civilians not already possessing / in tents can be provided such.
