How many times has this red line moved now? Or maybe it never really existed in the first place.
“That’s what the Israelis have said,” Kirby responded. “We’re going based on what the Israelis are telling us and what they’re saying publicly and what we’re able to discern, as best we can.”
Someone call Mr Squiggle, that red line ain’t very straight!
So on top of being a walking corpse, Biden is also color blind?
Thank God we’re the good guys!
You’re all reading this wrong. The right way to interpret this is that there is no red line.
Exactly.
Strikes not strike
I’m convinced Israel could whip out the nukes and Biden would still find a way to defend it.
Hahahahaha surprise surprise!!!
The fuck you gotta do to recognise war crimes these days
What fucking red line?
Are you kidding me!?!
Nope. This has been the Biden administration from the beginning.
If I were Joe Biden, I would have just released a statement saying that America and its military are refusing to become involved, outside of providing relief aid to victims. I would have refused to send arms to either side, and refused to say anything more to the media.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Israeli tanks were seen entering central Rafah for the first time Tuesday, as global condemnation mounted over the deaths in a crowded tent camp for displaced civilians and as U.S. aid deliveries to Gaza by sea were suspended after damage to its temporary pier.
But National Security Council spokesman John Kirby told reporters at a briefing that the United States was not turning a “blind eye” to Israel’s operations in the southern Gaza city, from which around 1 million Palestinians have fled in recent weeks.
A U.S. official similarly told NBC News that while America believed the deadly strike was a “horrific incident,” it appeared to be the result of an airstrike gone “horribly wrong” and didn’t represent Israel “smashing into Rafah.”
Kirby’s comments came just days after the Israeli airstrike sparked the fire that tore through the tent camp in Rafah’s Tal al-Sultan neighborhood, killing at least 45 people including children, according to local health officials.
Hala Rharrit, a U.S. diplomat and veteran foreign service officer who resigned from the State Department last month in protest over Washington’s policy on Israel’s war in Gaza, said she felt the Biden administration was now trying to “wiggle their way out of this latest shift” on what constitutes a “red line.”
On Wednesday National Security Adviser Tzachi Hanegbi said on Israeli radio that “we still expect another 7 months of fighting this year to deepen the achievement and accomplish what we define as the destruction of Hamas’s governmental and military capabilities, without setting a stopwatch for ourselves.”
