HOW MANY MORE DEAD? HOW MANY MORE STRIKES ON INNOCENT CIVILIANS, BEHEADED BABIES AND PEOPLE BURNT ALIVE?<\/p>\n<p>The US is looking for ANY EXCUSE to avoid holding Israel to account!!

Now, there has been a million or so who have evacuated Rafah proper. But it&#8217;s not like they&#8217;re going all that far away. The whole area is densely populated. <\/p>\n<p>Ed O&#8217;Keefe: How does this not violate the red line that the president laid out? <\/p>\n<p>John Kirby: As I said, we don&#8217;t want to see a major ground operation. We haven&#8217;t seen that at this point. <\/p>\n<p>Ed O&#8217;Keefe: How many more charred corpses does he have to see before the president considers a change of policy? <\/p>\n<p>John Kirby: We don&#8217;t want to see a single more innocent life taken. And I kind of take a little offense at the question. No civilian casualties is the right number of civilian casualties. And this is not something that we&#8217;ve turned a blind eye to, nor has it been something we&#8217;ve ignored or neglected to raise with our Israeli counterparts including Ed, this weekend as a result of this particular strike. Now they&#8217;re investigating it. So let them investigate it and see what they come up with. <\/p>\n<p>Ed O&#8217;Keefe: But the president doesn&#8217;t have a personal limit to this?<\/p>\n<p>John Kirby: The president has been very clear and very direct about what our expectations are for Israeli operations in Rafah, specifically but in Gaza writ large, we don&#8217;t support, we won&#8217;t support a major ground operation in Rafah. And we&#8217;ve again been very consistent on that. And the President said that should that occur, then it might make him have to make different decisions in terms of support. We haven&#8217;t seen that happen at this point.<\/p>\n<p> Ed O&#8217;Keefe: And why not have him come out and say that himself?<\/p>\n<p>John Kirby: The president has been speaking to leaders throughout the region on a regular basis. He has been addressing you guys in various fora. You&#8217;ve got plenty of opportunities to talk to the president, including, I might add, in a press conference last week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>View this post on Instagram A post shared by Daizy Gedeon (@daizygedeon) During a press briefing, White House spokesperson John Kirby denied that Israel violated US President Joe Biden\u2019s \u201cred&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":5513,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19,35,37,33],"tags":[],"powerkit_post_featured":[],"class_list":["post-5512","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-daizy-gedeon","category-israel-hamas-war","category-israel-hamas-war-live-updates","category-middle-east-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/daizygedeon.com\/news-blogs-and-cultures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5512","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/daizygedeon.com\/news-blogs-and-cultures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/daizygedeon.com\/news-blogs-and-cultures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/daizygedeon.com\/news-blogs-and-cultures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/daizygedeon.com\/news-blogs-and-cultures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5512"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/daizygedeon.com\/news-blogs-and-cultures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5512\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/daizygedeon.com\/news-blogs-and-cultures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5513"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/daizygedeon.com\/news-blogs-and-cultures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5512"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/daizygedeon.com\/news-blogs-and-cultures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5512"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/daizygedeon.com\/news-blogs-and-cultures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5512"},{"taxonomy":"powerkit_post_featured","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/daizygedeon.com\/news-blogs-and-cultures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/powerkit_post_featured?post=5512"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
