Too Little, Too Late...
The US under President Biden will rue the day they vetoed the earlier UN calls for a ceasefire. You can't go back in time now and fix what's broken or bring the hostages home and bring people back to life...
This is poor diplomacy because we are convinced that Might Makes Right and those with the biggest weapons caches win. That's not true. Non-violence and Reason always win the day over force and violence.
China and Russia were the BigPlayers at the UN vetoing the cease-fire this go around, picking up the role the United States previously played on Israel's behalf vetoing earlier U.N. resolutions. If China moves on Taiwan, is the US "defense" industry spread too thin distributing weapons to Israel and Ukraine in their ongoing wars which do not seem to be accomplishing much despite the billions already expended to help their countries' defense?
Don't you wish we had a strong commander-in-chief who had the ability to think ahead, and was not always playing diplomatic "catch up" doing what the US should have done months ago in curtailing Israel's use of our weapon supply?
Is Bibi or Biden in charge of US foreign policy today? I think the US Congress is in the lobbyist pockets, but that cast of characters is always changing as they age and are voted out of office.
Israel torched al-Shifa Hospital department: Gaza health ministry Israel bombed several buildings at al-Shifa Hospital and burned down its vascular department. Israel forces also detained about 240 patients and 10 health personnel at the Prince Nayef Center, the hospital’s radiology unit, the health ministry added. Hamas has condemned what it called Israel’s “bloody massacre” at al-Shifa and said civilians, patients and displaced people were among the dozens of fatalities. Al-Shifa, the Gaza Strip’s largest hospital before the current conflict started, is one of the few healthcare facilities that is even partially operational in the north of the enclave.
