Sec of State #Blinken reiterated the msg in Brussels on Thurs. & Sen #ChrisCoons, a close #Biden ally & a staunch supporter of #Israel, said the #UnitedStates is “at that point” where #conditions must be placed on #MilitaryAid to Israel.
The changing dynamic comes as Israel plans to invade the southern #Gaza city of #Rafah, where up to 1.5M #Palestinians are sheltering in decrepit conditions after fleeing there under Israeli orders. #US ofcls have warned Israel against a major campaign in Rafah.

#Biden added that the #UnitedStates expected to see #Israel not just “announcing” changes, but “executing” & “implementing” them.

The WH summary of the Biden - #Netanyahu call added that #POTUS had told the Israeli prime minister that the #humanitarian situation in #Gaza was “unacceptable” & had called for an “immediate #ceasefire.”

“If #Netanyahu were to order the [#IDF] into #Rafah at scale …& make no provision for #civilians or for #HumanitarianAid, I would vote to condition #aid to #Israel. I’ve never said that before. I’ve never been here before,”Coons said.

…Among the changes #Biden wants to see…are “a dramatic increase in #humanitarian aid getting in, additional crossings opened up, & a reduction in #violence against #civilians.”

https://truthout.org/articles/biden-approved-bomb-sale-to-israeli-military-on-same-day-it-killed-aid-workers/The sale approval came just after Israeli forces finished their total destruction of Al-Shifa Hospital.

President #Biden told #Netanyahu an "immediate ceasefire is essential to stabilize and improve the humanitarian situation and protect innocent civilians," according to a White House readout of their call.

@trumpet please stop blocking threads so that I can follow and boost @POTUS@threads.net

This policy of blocking entire instances simply because you don't like who runs them is silly and detrimental to the Fediverse not to mention our democracy.

“‘The American Muslim community said very early on that it would be completely unacceptable for us to break bread [iftar] with the very same White House that is enabling the Israeli government to starve and slaughter the Palestinian people in #Gaza’ ….

The cancelled iftar underscores #Biden’s struggle to stem growing anger in US Arab and Muslim communities over his unconditional support for #Israel.”

Joyce Vance: “This is a five-alarm fire. We know what the reaction would be if Joe #Biden tweeted a photo of a bound and gagged Donald #Trump in the trunk of an electric car. Why does Donald Trump get more leeway, especially with his past history? He only continues to get it because our institutions—the courts, the Republican party—let him take it.”

The new arms packages will include over 1,800 MK84 2,000-pound bombs and 500 MK82 500-pound bombs, as reported by #Pentagon and State Department officials.

The 2,000-pound bombs have been associated with Israeli massacres of targeting and destroying civilian blocks in #Gaza, killing thousands of Palestinian women and children. The State Department has also approved the transfer of 25 F-35A fighter jets and engines, valued at approximately $2.5 billion, according to U.S. officials.

Thank you Pres. #Biden:

BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) - The Biden administration has restored threatened species protections dropped during Donald #Trump's presidency.

#Trump is not some anomaly foreign to US democracy. He is a product of the system itself, and as China Miéville iterates (within the context of the #Biden presidency), the very state itself is the growing danger:

“The US state … represents an immensely powerful roadblock to any program of change, no matter how mild. And the situation is worsening.” (A Spectre Haunting)

The roadblock is due in part to centrists who while horrified by Trump are not horrified enough by the electoral college.

My top 3 criteria for picking who I vote for this year will be:

1) Is not Biden
2) Is not Trump
3) Of whoever is left, the most honest, compassionate, and least racist/sexist choice.

@Ralph058

Thanks. I am not that much into aviation itself, but what you state sounds like another example of defunding a government agency to reduce "GovernmentOverreach"+ to move into the #GQP's beloved "#SmallGovernment prior to the #NewDeal and even the #Sherman #AntiTrustAct.
s/:Businesses "regulating" themselves. A capitalist's wet dream. /s

Luckily for America and its citizens, the #Biden Administration is moving in the other direction.
