Honestly, good. Israel's PM is not looking for the off ramp here, so the US should act in it's own interest (for once) when our ally wants to keep the military operation going.

But what would the US be able to use as an incentive during negotiations if they have no interest in making Israel stop this conflict?

Give us the hostages and...?

Give us the hostages or else...?

Don't we provide all the weapons? We could definitely stop doing that and at least force Israel to find another source for weaponry if they insist on continuing.

Whaaat? The US willing to stop supporting Israel? That is simply too big an ask.

Next you'll tell me that the capitalists will voluntarily surrender the means of production to the working class.

  • ... we'll recognise Palestine as a state.
  • ... we'll stop military aid to Israel.
  • ... we'll install a new leader in Israel.

Loads of things to offer.

I don't know I'm not part of the negotiations team.
