“However, that’s not to say that White House officials or Democratic Party staff have heeded their calls for an immediate and permanent ceasefire, an arms embargo on Israel, and a lifting of the 17-year-old blockade on the Gaza Strip.”
The White House has absolutely zero control over an immediate and permanent cease fire, or lifting the Gaza blockade, that’s all on Israel to do and they’re not interested.
We could enact an arms embargo, which would do nothing. Israel would continue producing their own weapons and obtain more from equally “on the outs” nations.
That’s a cute thought, but if that’s true, then let’s go ahead and completely stop supporting Israel since we clearly have no effect either way, right?
They have power all right. It’s quite simple: tell the nazi that he’s on his own. That’s it.
The moment the nazi loses his “I’ll call dad” card, we’ll see how well he goes in the territory.

The white house has plenty of influence over israel, they’ve just chosen to green light the genocide and netanyahu’s regional escalation against the advice of our own experts.
An arms embargo would empower anti-netanyahu voices in israel who could point to his mismanaging of israel’s most important bilateral. It would reduce the rate and kind of weapons the idf could bring to bear against civilians, saving lives.

No, because if we stop supporting Israel, there’s a non-zero chance they’ll go to someone worse for support, like Putin.

Bibi doesn’t give two shits what our opinions are, he’s made that clear repeatedly.
Because he knows Biden will support him anyway. If Biden had some balls Netanyahu would never be able to do that shit.
