Congressional staff say the mood inside the Capitol is tense, stifling and bewildering as members brush off their constituents’ outrage.

Is it because the Biden admin already got Israel to agree to daily humanitarian pauses?
That’s like putting a bandaid on a severed limb
A fig leaf
Is this a joke? If the IDF had any desire to even pretend that they were interested in protecting civilian life, they would obviously refrain from bombing civilian exit routes 24 hours a day, not 4. And even then, the actual point of this burning olive branch is obvious - the only option Israel offers to Palestinian civilians that isn’t certain death is the barely less certain death of fleeing, and after they flee, Israel will settle what remains, as they have done in Palestine for over 70 years.
The IDF has zero desire to protect Palestinian lives… that’s why a cease fire is absolutely not happening any time soon and why any amount of time paused to help Palestinians is an actually surprisingly big thing to get from them.
We now have predator drones there as well. Our military is monitoring the situation and providing strategy research.
I believe the bombing damage has been done. Its leveled. Now its important to force the IDF to focus on Hamas rather than genocide, and that’s a decent pivot.
