Addressing the Aspen Security Forum, White House aide John Finer said the US has “not given a firm deadline to Israel” to end its military operations in Gaza.
“It’s not really our role, this is their conflict,” Finer said.
“That said, we do have influence, even if we don’t have ultimate control over what happens on the ground in Gaza, and we are trying to use our influence to steer that conflict in the most constructive, in our view, way possible,” he said.
Earlier this week, CNN reported that the US expects Israel to wrap up major combat operations in Gaza “by January”.

The US needs to recognize Palestine as a state, end our aid and support to Israel, and boycott Israeli economic activities to end apartheid

The Levant is a travesty and change must happen.

Israel is committing genocide, we need to push for a ceasefire immediately.
@9HHXDV710mos10MO
The current war in Gaza right now is a genocide of the Palestinians. Yes, some Palestinians did strike first at Israel, however Israel is committing dozens of war crimes against the Palestinians who have done nothing wrong, and are forcefully uprooting families from their homes.

gender neutra toys is a nice feature to have in stores, the indicted on tax charges news is important, But news about the gaza war needs to be sent out to the people, and hearing about a cut off is important

Throughout the slow and agonizing outcome of genocide in Palestine I have become educated on the topic from trusted adults and influencers personally affected by this event. I have learned and witnessed the president and our government turn their back on civility and proceed to fund resources and information to the Israeli government. Its hard to live at any peace knowing there is nothing I can do and nothing our government will do for anyone UNLESS it is one of our own American citizens. Yes, this topic is extremely complex and runs deep through history, but millions of citizens are innocent and did not choose to be interlaced with terrorist organizations, AND war crime inflicting systems of governments. What is happening, is horrific and we're doing the bare minimum.

People should be able to have their own opinions and stances on war.
