    “Honestly, it didn’t come up. We talked mostly about the Netflix series Night Agent. Have you seen it? So good.”

    • Biden, probably.

          Sending aid and discouraging casualties are not mutually exclusive.

            Sending aid and discouraging casualties by telling the media is about as useful as telling the police that you swear the 10lb of weed you have fell in through the window.

              You’re presuming he only told the media, which is not what that report says. His team relayed this to Israeli officials:

              Biden aide Jake Sullivan, the US national security adviser, is in Israel today and tomorrow for meetings with Israeli officials. He says he held “intense, detailed conversations” with Israeli officials on transitioning away from high-intensity fighting in Gaza, and focusing on more precise battles and targeting top Hamas officials.

              Funny how most everyone here assumes the worst of Biden despite all he’s doing.

                Sending aid and discouraging casualties by telling the media and discussing it with Israeli officials without any incentive or enforcement is about as useful as telling the police that you swear the 10lb of weed you have fell in through the window and the proof is that it doesn’t have your name on it.

                FTFY

                No one is assuming the worst of Biden. It’s just that american foreign policy has been exactly the same for so long that it doesn’t surprise anyone when the USA pretends to care about an international issue. Especially now that declassified CIA docs show just how much the USA has been aware and involved in practically every area they consider even a minor strategic advantage.

          “Biden isn’t doing X”
          “He is doing X”
          “Oh so he is even, ‘doing X,’ so brave!”

    Why would he? Hamas has not been deposed yet. If they stop before this it all will have been for nothing.

      Every Palestinian has not been deposed yet. If they stop before they have access to all that sweet sweet oil it all will have been for nothing.

      FTFY

      Biden’s doing this to bring down gas prices. /s

        Every Palestinian holds office? Seems like you don’t know what that word means.

        If they stop before they have access to all that sweet sweet oil

        Or, you know, while there’s a neighboring government trying to murder them.

          Hamas has been propped up by Israel to create this conflict. Take a look at the proximity of wars with America and its allies to oil deposits in the last 50 years.

          Gaza has oil. At this point it’s so fucking obvious what this is actually about and it’s fucking disgusting.

            Netanyahu was trying to play Hamas against the PA to divide and conquer and it blew up in his face.
            That’s quite the conspiracy theory. So Oct 7 was what, just a coincidence, planned by Israel, or something equally absurd?

              I don’t care about any of that. We could play Israel did this vs Hamas did that all day. It’s all smoke and mirrors to complicate a situation, making us argue so we’re blind to the simple truth of what it’s all about. Oil.

              Why won’t America help the Palestinians? Because Israel will get them access to that oil. It’s not that complicated.

              Anyway, Merry Christmas.

      Ah yes, why hasn’t anyone ever thought to justify genocide before!
