President Biden urged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday toward a cease-fire deal that would release the remaining hostages in Gaza and suggested that U.S. policy on the war will depend on Israel’s ability to better protect civilians and humanitarian workers after an attack that killed a contingent of international aid workers this week.
Biden spoke with Netanyahu days after an Israeli strike killed seven humanitarian aid workers with World Central Kitchen, a charity group that was distributing food to Palestinians in Gaza. The president told Netanyahu the incident was “unacceptable.”
“He made clear the need for Israel to announce and implement a series of specific, concrete, and measurable steps to address civilian harm, humanitarian suffering, and the safety of aid workers,” the White House said in a readout of the call. “He made clear that U.S. policy with respect to Gaza will be determined by our assessment of Israel’s immediate action on these steps.”
The White House said Biden “underscored that an immediate ceasefire is essential to stabilize and improve the humanitarian situation and protect innocent civilians, and he urged the Prime Minister to empower his negotiators to conclude a deal without delay to bring the hostages home.”

Muslim voters are not fooled by it. Joe is trying to have it both ways.
We’ll see if he sells all those weapons to Israel.
There might be a few on both sides trying to stop that...

No, you take it farther, you accuse Israel of war crimes, when Israel has, in fact, been too WEAK in fighting the war. And you accused me I’d d8sloyary to the US, because I support Israel.
Trump said that today.
But if he takes his time and at the same time, he blames the Americans for "interference", he gets to take out Hamas in 6 months from now.
I agree but why do we need to intervene at all. Just let BeBe finish the job and it will be sorted out.
And to BeBe, get off you butt. This should have been completed two weeks ago. Every day you delay will just make it harder when you do go in.
Trump right now says he wants the war over ASAP.
I take Trump at his word.
Trump is friendly to the Saudis-Gulf Arabs and they need Israeli bombs to end so the deal can be cut.
Deal Of The Century-Israel-Saudi Economic Deal!!!
In Congress the GOP strategy is clear enough onto Moscow and Beijing with a few notable exceptions.
YEP, should have done it mounths ago.
Yes, wars should NEVER be fought halfway.
I understand that thought. I’m not sure he’d do
It, though. He knows that the public is getting frustrated by his lack of decisive leadership to eliminate the Fakestinian threats. I think this simple fact may well defeat him in any elections faster and more decisively than any direct interference by wash cia/snakeDept —— or rather this is likely a part of the scheme already underway from those ruling the Biden regime ?

I do not believe that of Netanyahu at all.
Every Israeli politician should now know that a Palestinian state is a chimera which will never happen…. As long as they want a viable Israeli state.
Why this need to war with Russia and China that’s what boggles my mind when it comes to House-Senate Republicans.
Pushing Russia in Ukraine drives them to China.
In Kissinger’s day it was play Russia (USSR) and China against each other?
The 2014 start of the Ukraine problem the coup and Russia’s move into Ukraine came on Obama’s time.
Are they plotting so in end China wins?
I hope you’re right but Trump talked “Deal of the Century” and that includes a Palestinian state.
I actually want the Palestinians to have a place but not in the West Bank let the Jews live there.
Yes, Russia could have beena check against China.
So will he take his time to destroy Hamas in 6 months and at the same time, he gets to appease the Americans?
Absolutely yes.
The deal of the century?! It would be the deal of the millennia- the olive branch hasn’t worked in that part of the world in over 2000 years. Why should anything change now?!
And Trump listened to Kissinger and consulted with Dr. K during his time in the White House.
