Internal disagreements within the US government over how the administration is dealing with Israel’s actions in Gaza has led to a steady stream of resignations. At least seven officials have resigned since October. Last week, a senior State Department official quit over a report that denied Israel has been blocking aid to Gaza. Stacy Gilbert is the former State Department employee who resigned over that report. She was a Senior Civil Military Advisor at the Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration at the US Department of State.

A spokesperson for the Israeli government says Israel is ready to stop its war on Gaza to return captives. However, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has reiterated that the goals of the war remain unchanged and that he wants to see Hamas destroyed. This comes after US President Joe Biden presented a three-phase ceasefire plan on Friday, with the first phase entailing a limited release of captives from Gaza. The Israeli government has banned Al Jazeera from reporting in Israel, so Imran Khan is in the Jordanian capital, Amman, with more on this.

Irish politician Thomas Gould says pictures and videos from Rafah showing burnt corpses of men, women, and children is “horrific” and lays responsibility on Benjamin Netanyahu. He questions how Jewish people, who historically experienced atrocities, could “allow” the Israeli government to commit and excuse such brutal acts.

Former special assistant of the US Interior Department, Lily Greenberg Call, says President Joe Biden is “using the Jewish community” as “justification” for the country’s military support for Israel. What forced her to resign was that Biden’s support of Israel has threatened both Jewish and Palestinian people, and is incentivised by American military interest in the Middle East.

Tens of thousands of Israelis have again taken to the streets of the Israeli city, putting pressure on the government of Prime Minister Netanyahu to accept a ceasefire plan presented by United States President Joe Biden, calling on Netanyahu to publicly support the proposal. The Biden proposal is providing captives’ families with hope, they have said, but they are also concerned that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and some extremist members of the government could jeopardise the deal. protests have been occurring every weekend for months, with demonstrators also calling for early elections to replace Netanyahu.

While Biden talked about Israel withdrawing from more populated areas of Gaza, Abdullah al-Arian, professor of history at Georgetown University, Qatar, says it isn’t known if there is an acknowledgement from the US that Israel will remain occupying parts of Gaza even after the ceasefire is reached. “I think this is a major sticking point and one that Palestinians have continuously rejected that any part of Gaza should remain occupied,” he told Al Jazeera. “There’s a major contradiction here and the fact that both the US and the Israeli side have said on the one hand, that they don’t want a future in Gaza in which Hamas has any kind […]
Al Jazeera’s political analyst, Marwan Bishara, says that, statistically, if the US were Gaza, Israel would have caused 16 million American casualties, of which 2 million would be dead children. He says the Israelis use propaganda to suggest “they care for human life”, when in fact they are committing war crimes.

Al Jazeera’s senior political analyst, Marwan Bishara, commented on the United Nations Security Council meeting regarding the war in Gaza. Bishara noted the powerful speech by Palestinian representative Majed Bamya, who vividly described the suffering of Palestinians and the dehumanisation they endure. He emphasised the stark contrast between the Israeli and Palestinian narratives, highlighting the zero-sum game often presented by Israel. Bishara observed that the Palestinian representative advocated for peace, ceasefire, and negotiations, while the Israeli stance focused on the necessity of war. This dichotomy between the war camp and peace camp was evident at the Security Council and reflected globally. Bishara also remarked on the influence of global peace […]
