“As the president of the United States, you have power to change the course of history, and the responsibility to save lives right now,” the staffers wrote.

    Taking from my comment on the other community where you posted this:

    Biden asked for one and reported Netanyahu said no.

    The headline sounds like he’s just dismissing his staffers

      “Ok then stop sending bombs and using reaper drones to help them perform mass killings”

      “No can do chief, Bibi told me I need to keep doing all that.”

      Considering the power that the US has over Israel, he pretty much is just dismissing his staffers.

      Even if IDF stops shooting, what really makes people believe Hamas will stop? I want an end to the violence as much as anyone else but I really don’t see a cease fire doing anything but giving Hamas time to rearm and plan their next massacre.

        And if IDF doesn’t stop shooting like they do now, will the continued escalation make less people flock to anti-israel organization like Hamas? Because all I can see happening is that, while Israel may take over some land, they are just strengthening the support of terrorists.

      You mean the headline is intentionally misleading to the point of misinforming people?

      It’s straight up journalistic malpractice the way they phrased it
