WH National Security Advisor Sullivan is on the wire saying:
- US has seem targeted, limited Israeli operations in Gaza
- He was briefed on Israeli plans to minimize civilian harm in Rafah during weekend visit to region
- Biden believes two state solutions is the best way to bring about long term stability
- Each country is entitled to makes its own determinations on recognizing Palestine
- Biden believes direct negotiations through the parties is best route on Palestinian state
- US believes it is wrong for Israel to withhold funds from West Bank
Netanyahu has been adamant about ridding Gaza of Hamas. If that can be done, then a two-state solution can be successful (or at least has a chance). I imagine it would require some rebuild as well. How that happens seems a ways away.
