WhatsappIf there was ever a US administration that was known for putting out more conflicting statements at the same time, Biden’s would certainly be it.
On the sidelines of the COP28 conference in Dubai, VP Kamala Harris urged Israel to do even more to limit the amount of civilian deaths – seemingly attacking Israel fro the amount of “civilian” deaths in Gaza.
“As Israel defends itself, it matters how. The United States is unequivocal: International humanitarian law must be respected. Too many innocent Palestinians have been killed,” Harris said. “As Israel pursues its military objectives in Gaza, we believe Israel must do more to protect innocent civilians.”
The White House issued a statement saying that it believes Israel is “making an effort” to limit civilian deaths in Gaza, as international concern mounted over the numbers killed in the resumed war with Hamas – a seemingly opposite message from the Vice President.
With all of this, the pressure on Israel is expected to increase further as VP Harris is on the way to Israel frm the Dubai conference in hopes that she can force the Jewish State to install the Nazi influenced Palestinian Authority in Gaza after Hamas is toppled.
Prime Minister Netanyahu as already made it clear that he will never agree to the PA taking over Gaza.
At a press conference Saturday night the Prime Minister said: “One thing for sure I am not doing. I am not ready to delude myself to say that the defective act that took place under Oslo through a terrible error” must now take place a second time with the return of a “hostile entity” to Gaza and the West Bank.
“I won’t repeat this mistake and return this body to Gaza, because the same thing will happen,” he said, referencing the 2007 coup Hamas did against the PA. “I think differently and I oppose this. We have to build something different” once the war is over, he said.
Oslo Is Dead
With the Oslo process dead for years, one wonders why the US insists on reviving a failed process and two state solution. Either they are incompetent or interested in continuing a conflict in order to ensure Israel is reliant on US support. Or perhaps its even worse. Qatari linked advisors have most likely swayed US policy to the point that they only pay lip service to Israel’s right to defend itself while bank rolling terror
Either way, the US must be told that only Israel can remain in charge of Gaza – anything else will lead to Israel’s destruction.
