According to a news report, the Israeli leadership has chosen to “continue its high-intensity campaign throughout January” in defiance of American efforts to scale up lethal strikes on people in Gaza.
According to six unidentified US officials cited by The Washington Post, Israel is defying US efforts to lessen the severity of its assaults even as the number of civilian deaths rises.
But according to Matt Duss, executive vice president of the Center for International Policy, reducing Israel’s yearly military funding of $3.8 billion is one approach to win Israel over.
“The president [Biden] has several tools at his disposal if he is truly irritated. Duss is cited as stating, “It’s not a good idea to get someone to do something different by promising unconditional support no matter what.”
