“What’s fascinating here is the involvement of a third party, which is the United States. This is [a] war between [the] United States, Israel on the one side and Hamas, and other armed groups, on the other,” Khouri told Al Jazeera.
“The US is worried about many things. They are terrified of the Iranian-Israeli exchange of fire, even though they were both controlled. They are terrified of a wider war in the region, with the impact of this on oil flows, investment and global trade. It will be [a] catastrophe.
“The US government, led by the Democrats and Biden, are terrified of the impact of this war on the election prospects in November. Polls show 81 percent of young people, 81 percent of all Americans, not just Democrats, between the ages of 18 and 34, think that the war is being badly managed and they disapprove of the way the war is going and American support for it.
“This is a huge thing for American politics. And they are finding that… they don’t have the same clout that they used to.”

Palestinian demands can't and must not be going back to pre-7th of October but full freedom for Gaza with open sea and air and full control of its own borders. You don't fight a war like that to just go back to being under occupation and maltreatment

The word is genocide not war

A prudent man sees evil and hides himself; imprudent people go further and suffer damage for it.
