Defense Secretary Lloyd J. Austin III was traveling on Sunday in the Middle East for a visit to Israel and three Persian Gulf nations as Biden administration officials push Israel to end its large-scale ground and air campaign in the Gaza Strip within weeks and transition to a more focused phase in its war against Hamas.
Mr. Austin will meet with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Israel’s defense minister, Yoav Gallant, to discuss in detail when and how Israeli forces will carry out a new phase that American officials envision would involve smaller groups of elite forces, U.S. officials said. Those forces would move in and out of population centers in Gaza, conducting more precise, intelligence-driven missions to find and kill Hamas leaders, rescue hostages and destroy tunnels, according to the U.S. officials.
The only thing the US is pushing us more weapons and cash into Israel.
That was my reaction too; “US to push Israel to scale back war… while providing Israel with the means and support to escalate that war”.
They’re not providing weapons for this war. They’re providing weapons for the next war. Which will be even worse.
Wow. Scale back. Such a bold stance.
“GUYS STOP IT OKAY?” …“look, I had to say that. Mom was listening at the stairs. have some more bombs, and keep up the good work.”
U.S. to Push Israel to Scale Back War
as soon as the Pope shits in the woods
“Please scale back the butchering of civilians. There we’ve said it now and will continue to fund, supply and support those same war crimes.”
