News reports indicate the Israel Security Cabinet voted to expand the IDF’s Rafeh operation.
In other words, Israel doesn’t care what President Joe Biden says or does:
The Axios news site cites two sources who say the expansion will be limited enough so as to not upset the Biden administration, while a third source warns the moves could be interpreted by the US as a step too far.
The security cabinet also voted to instruct Israel’s hostage negotiating team to continue its efforts to try and reach a hostage deal by putting together a new proposal in the hopes of reaching a breakthrough, Axios reports.
Far-right ministers Itamar Ben Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich voted against the decision but were outnumbered.
An Israeli official confirms to The Times of Israel that the security cabinet approved the continuation of the IDF’s operation in Rafah but doesn’t elaborate.

Really? What’s Brandon going to do? Nuke Israel? I have never in my life been more ashamed of an American President than Joe Biden, and that includes Carter.
Kill them all. Every last one.
Thank God. Take Hamas out.
Not like to dinner… 🙂
For generations various islamic sects identifying as Palestinian or otherwise occupying portions of Israel have taught hate and murder cradle to the grave
Unless you can isolate the child before it learns to talk, their destruction is the only assurance of defense of Israelis and others….
Usually you are correct, but be sure to watch this video. Heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time:

There is still hope for humanity.
End Hamas (and those other terrorist groups helping it)
Bibi Netanyahu is now the leader of the free world. Biden has long ago forfeited that honor, but his flip on Israel is the exclamation point.
Elsewhere I found a very thoughtful list of the damage Biden’s decision has done to the US. It is sickening, substantial, and may be irreparable.

Interesting. In some ways this really is true.
Mark Levin is livid! Slams Biden and calls him out!
