The United States has stood by Israel as criticism over the war in Gaza has grown, but senior officials in the Biden administration have also displayed what appears to be a growing impatience over mass casualties inflicted on the Gazan population. More than 15,000 people have been killed in Gaza since Israel began its retaliatory war in response to the Oct. 7 killings of 1,200 people in Israel by Hamas and other groups.
Among the strongest warnings came from Secretary of Defense Lloyd J. Austin III, who has said that Israel faced “strategic defeat” if Palestinian civilians were not better protected.
At the same time, the United States continues to dispatch weapons and ammunition to Israel. Two U.S. officials told The New York Times on Saturday that the State Department was pushing through a government sale of 13,000 rounds of tank ammunition valued at more than $106 million to Israel, bypassing a congressional review process that is generally required for arms sales to any foreign nation.

This news topic shows urgent matters that the government needs to take to help protect innocent civilians.
@9HKLW6S5mos5MO
There is not really much to say about this because what happens happens
@9HKGYFY5mos5MO
The U.S. will not be happy if Israel loses.
@9HKGW675mos5MO
Not sure how to feel nor do I care as it's out of my control.
@9HKGJVH5mos5MO
Israel is under attack and there citizens or being slaughtered they need help
@9HKDSP2Republican 5mos5MO
i feel like the U.S. shouldn't interfere because both sides have problems but after the fact if the group that won meant to bring harm to the world we should then step in to regulate it
@9HKB8RM5mos5MO
i have not done enough research to give my opinion on this topic.
@9HK86RC5mos5MO
I don't support the Israeli or the Palestinian government, and I especially don't support Hamas. However, I feel bad for every citizen who has been affected by this war.
@9HK6TKS5mos5MO
People are dying. Both sides need their civilians protected.
