The Biden administration’s policy on Gaza has been widely criticised as being in disarray as the defense secretary described the situation as a “humanitarian catastrophe” the day after the state department declared Israel to be in compliance with international humanitarian law.

Washington was also on the defensive on Tuesday over its claim that a UN security council ceasefire resolution on which it abstained was non-binding, an interpretation that put the US at odds with other member states, international legal scholars and the UN itself.

    The only real solution is one nobody has the political capital to pull off.

    You treat them like fighting toddlers. Roll in and forcibly separate them. Set up a DMZ.

    “You, go over here and knock off your bullshit.”
    “You, go over there and stop your bullshit.”

    “No, I don’t CARE who started it. I’m ENDING it.”

    Nobody will ever do that to Israel.

      You’d also have to reverse the systemic settler colonialism of Israeli Zionists on Palestinian land, otherwise Israel will continue to illegally seize land and homes to displace Palestinians.
