It will be rather difficult to pressure Israel into “negotiating,” since
Israel has US munitions and weaponry to destroy Hamas entirely on its own.

Reference Biden’s 2023 US arms handout to Israel immediately after the Oct 7, 2023 attack:
<><>57,000 155mm artillery shells
<><>more than 5,000 Mk82 unguided or “dumb” bombs,
<><>more than 5,400 Mk84 2,000 pound warhead bombs,
<><>around 1,000 GBU-39 small diameter bombs,
<><>approximately 3,000 JDAMs, which turn unguided bombs into guided “smart” bombs,
<><>BLU-109 bunker busters w/ 2,000 pound warheads designed to penetrate concrete shelters.


On March 30, 2024 Joe Biden secretly authorized billions of dollars in new bombs and fighter jets for Israel, despite US officials publicly expressing worry over mounting Palestinian death toll in Tel Aviv’s brutal war on besieged Gaza.

The arms approved this week by the US president include deadly 1,800 MK84 2,000-pound bombs and 500 MK82 500-pound bombs, anonymous State and Defense Department officials told the Washington Post.

The State Department last week approved the transfer of 25 F-35A fighter jets and engines, a US official added. The planes and engines are estimated to be worth around $2.5 billion.

There are no corresponding announcements on the Defense Security Cooperation Agency’s website where such notifications are normally posted.

On Friday, Senator Bernie Sanders criticised Biden administration’s approval of sending more weapons to Israel. “The US cannot beg Netanyahu to stop bombing civilians one day and the next send him thousands more 2,000 lb. bombs that can level entire city blocks. This is obscene,” Sanders said on X, sharing the report of Washington Post. “We must end our complicity: No more bombs to Israel,” Sanders reiterated.


Biden also recently gave Israel an extra $billion tax dollars but its not clear why.....seems like Biden cant help himself from putting America last.

Joe Biden formulated Isreal/Palestine/IRAN policy, not Obama.

Biden will also meet with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas on Wednesday, and on Thursday he will hold talks with Jordan’s King Abdullah II.

People underestimate the influence and damage of Joe Biden.
Fact is, He’s been undermining Isreal and proping up Iran/Hamas for decades.
Biden was in charge of the big money deal with Iran from the beginning, not Obama.
Iran bought Joe Biden decades ago and IT’S all about paying off his debt now.

Biden did nothing as senator or VP that didn’t profit him and his family personally.

Snip ..
Joe Biden’s jaded romance with Iran. 2015

In fact, years before Barack Obama ran for president on a platform that included reaching out to adversaries like Iran, Biden was calling for engagement with the Middle Eastern nation, meeting with its top diplomats and even flirting with a visit. At one point, a critic derided him as “Tehran’s favorite senator.”

My, my!!!

Iran owns Joe’s butt people.
