Israel

The US position on Israel has varied back and forth with concern for the US's most important ally in the Middle East and votes by Muslims in Michigan. Starting on the very day of the Oct. 7 Hamas terrorist attacks in Israel, Biden has emotionally expressed his solidarity with Israel and affirmed its need to fight fire with fire. He has expedited military assistance and, most dramatically, he flew to Israel and sat as part of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s war cabinet. Since that time the US has changed to expressing concern when Palestinian's were being killed and asked Israel not be more discriminate in their attack. Then Biden decided to build a dock on the sea to get supplies into Gaza. He has sent envoys to discuss allowing aide into Gaza. All the while he continues to send military assistance to Israel. In all of this the hostages have been forgotten. It would seem wise to privately tell Israel to declare victory and pull out. Then the US can encourage other Arab countries to help rebuild Palestine.
