the hypocrisy of the White House; Concern for the victims of Gaza without pressure on Tel Aviv
After two months of the Gaza war, Washington is content only to express concern about the increasing number of martyrs of this war and is not willing to use its influence on Tel Aviv to end this war. |
According to the report of Fars News Agency International Group, Israeli analysts claim that the US government, in a conversation with Benjamin Netanyahu’s cabinet, about the increase in the number of martyrs in Gaza, which has reached 16,250 so far, and most of them are women and children. expresses concern and the Biden administration is trying to put pressure on Tel Aviv to end the killing of more Palestinians. But today’s report on Wednesday (December 6) by the Reuters news agency says something else.
Reuters wrote that the Biden administration does not take any action, such as threatening to limit military aid to Tel Aviv, which could lead to Israel forced to do something
This news agency, citing two American officials, reported that it is unlikely that Washington will stop the delivery of weapons to Israel or pressurize Tel Aviv to change its approach to Gaza with strong criticism. , because the United States believes that the current diplomatic strategy is more effective.
One of the high-ranking American officials pointed out that Benjamin Netanyahu’s position, from refusing humanitarian aid to Gaza to the daily arrival of about 200 aid trucks to Gaza changed for several days during last week’s cease-fire: “This improvement was the result of diplomacy, not threats.” The day after the resumption of Israeli airstrikes against southern Gaza last Friday, he claimed that the reduction of military support to Israel entails many risks. If aid to Israel is cut, other parties are encouraged to enter the conflict, undermining Tel Aviv’s deterrent effect. The United States considers its support for Israel to be “unwavering.” Netanyahu’s foreign policy advisor Ofir Falk said last week in response to a question about international pressure on Israel to end the Gaza war. : “I have to admit that I feel that the prime minister does not feel any pressure and I believe that we will do whatever it takes for the military to achieve its goals.” In the Middle East Democracy Project, Seth Binder also said that the annual support of the US to the Zionist regime with weapons, ammunition and aircraft gives Washington a significant influence on the way the war against Hamas is managed.
He added that refusing to provide certain types of equipment or delaying the filling of various weapons depots will force Israel to modify its strategies and methods because there is no guarantee of obtaining more equipment. “But until this moment, the American government has not shown any desire to use this influence.” The White House wrote in response to the Gaza war: Biden’s campaign for next year’s presidential election believes that any attempt to reduce aid to Tel Aviv could harm Biden due to the fall in the votes of Tel Aviv’s supporters in the United States. On the other hand, Biden is facing pressure from a faction of “progressive and progressive Democrats” who want Washington to set conditions for providing military aid to its closest ally in the Middle East, and for Biden to support calls for an immediate ceasefire.
