I think you're right. Netanyahu and his even more right wing crazies are taking a play from whoever said "Never let a crisis go to waste."

And unfortunately, Biden's too mired in the old story of "poor Israel, surrounded by enemies" to push back against them. Think of how embarrassing it is that we had to resort to airdrops to get trivial amounts of food into Gaza because our supposed *ally* won't cooperate in preventing the mass starvation of civilians in plain view of the world. And the levels of aid we're sending are far too low to actually change anything anyway.

Completely agreed. But there’s hope. Kamala’s public call for a ceasefire is huge.
