US warns against protracted Israeli campaign in Lebanon, Gaza ceasefire efforts renewed [View all]
this is the headline for an article from Reuters updated on 10/24/24. Apparently this is warning and words of deep concern Version 5,497 in the long list of meaningless pronouncements. It becomes increasingly difficult for Netanyahu and the right wing government of Israel to claim they are not trying to empty Northern Gaza while at the same time the IDF has ordered everyone to leave. I guess the assurances the US asked for about not striking the Iranian nuclear sites will carry weight too. Realistically the US is being drawn in deeper and deeper into complicity for much of what has been going on, still is going on, still is expanding and apparently has end in sight. A major strike against Iran will not bring anything but counterattack. But Netanyahu knows this and may well do whatever he can to drag a in military response from the US if possible.
Anyway I'm sure once the shooting and the bombing stops we will all be much more secure.
