    This is a good move. He’s doing what he can to temper Netanyahu’s attempts at genocide, while still protecting Israel.

    I just hope it’s enough to stop the killings. That monster will sacrifice every man, woman and child to stay in power (and out of prison).

      Just like all the other things Biden has done in this conflict, this is merely a symbolic gesture to say “don’t blame us if Israel flattens Rafah”.

      The US has already provided huge amounts of unconditional military aid to Israel, and remains committed to continuing to do so. So Israel is free to shuffle around their ample resources internally to reach the same outcome.
