I looked up the article and weirdly, Blinken’s response seems to be more aggressive than Biden’s, though it still sounds like little more than a strongly worded email in substance:
Earlier Tuesday, Secretary of State Antony Blinken said her death was “unprovoked and unjustified” and called for Israel to make “fundamental changes” to how it operates in the West Bank.
“No one, no one should be shot and killed for attending a protest. No one should have to put their life at risk just for expressing their views,” he said. “Now we have the second American citizen killed at the hands of Israeli security forces. It’s not acceptable. It has to change. And we’ll be making that clear to the senior-most members of the Israeli government.”
They can actually put pressure on israel, like by withholding some of the endless funding for more bombs. Instead, they talk at best as if they’re powerless activists trying to speak truth to power.
