US Warns “Israel” Amid Gaza Carnage It Doesn’t Have Long Before Support Erodes

By Staff, Agencies
US President Joe Biden and his top advisers are warning the apartheid “Israeli” entity with growing force that it will become increasingly difficult for it to pursue its military goals in the besieged Gaza Strip as global outcry intensifies about the scale of humanitarian suffering there.
Biden, War Secretary Lloyd Austin and Secretary of State Antony Blinken – who departed Thursday for the “Israeli” entity – have all explicitly pressed the case in recent private conversations with the “Israelis”, telling them that eroding support will have dire strategic consequences for “Israel” Occupation Forces [IOF] assaults against the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas.
Behind the scenes, American officials also believe there is limited time for the “Israeli” entity to try to accomplish its stated objective of taking out Hamas in its current assault before uproar over the humanitarian suffering and civilian casualties – and calls for a ceasefire – reaches a tipping point.
In fact, there is recognition within the administration that that moment may arrive quickly: Some of Biden’s close advisers believe that there are only weeks, not months, until rebuffing the pressure on the US government to publicly call for a ceasefire becomes untenable, sources told CNN.
Particularly jarring to Biden and his national security team, two sources familiar with the matter said, were “Israeli” airstrikes this week that targeted a refugee camp in northern Gaza, resulting in grim scenes of widespread destruction and deaths. The president “didn’t like this at all,” one of the sources said.
“The problem for [‘Israel’] is that the criticism is getting louder, not just among their detractors, but from their best friends,” one senior administration official said.
Already, protests have blocked streets in Western capitals and even interrupted a private fundraiser Biden attended Wednesday in Minnesota. “As a rabbi I need you to call for a ceasefire right now,” an audience member shouted.
Biden responded by making an explicit call for a break in the fighting: “I think we need a pause,” he said, adding later when pressed by the protester: “A pause means give time to get the prisoners out.”
Biden has not established any red lines for the “Israeli” entity, officials insist. And up until this point, the White House has taken great pains to avoid calling for a ceasefire, arguing that doing so would only help Hamas by giving it time to regroup and plot future operations.
Biden has told “Israeli” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that the relentless images of Palestinian women and children being pulled from rubble could start to narrow “Israel’s” ability to move forward with its current operation, according to senior administration officials.
In conversations with Netanyahu, Biden has warned that the “Israeli” entity will be judged harshly by the international community if it doesn’t take steps to significantly ease humanitarian suffering and minimize Palestinian civilian deaths.
Biden and top “national security” officials have also ramped up their calls for humanitarian pauses in the fighting to allow Hamas-held hostages to come out of Gaza and aid to flow in.
Those pauses are one of several specific issues top American officials have pressed the “Israeli” entity on in recent days as outcry mounts over the suffering of Palestinian civilians.
Departing Thursday for a visit to the “Israeli” entity, Blinken said he intended to discuss “concrete steps that can and should be taken to minimize harm to men, women and children in Gaza.”
