The White House on Thursday said it was exploring a series of pauses in the Israel-Hamas conflict to help people safely exit Gaza and allow humanitarian aid to get in, but reiterated its opposition to a full ceasefire.
The White House on Thursday said it was exploring a series of pauses in the Israel-Hamas conflict to help people safely exit Gaza and allow humanitarian aid to get in, but reiterated its opposition to a full ceasefire.
National security spokesperson John Kirby told reporters that such pauses should be temporary and localized, and insisted they would not stop Israel from defending itself.
"What we're trying to do is explore the idea of as many pauses as might be necessary to continue to get aid out and to continue to work to get people out safely, including hostages," he told reporters at a regular White House briefing.

Out to where ? mass displacement of population is called ethnic cleansing. mass murder of innocent lives is called collective punishment and genocide. I bet the US has a long track record of doing both but they only dare using those terminology with enemy states.
I think mass displacement is better than murder though. If it's infeasible to get Israel to hold off attacks, I would think that would be the lesser of two evils.
We could easily get Israel to hold off on attacks. It would start with not funding them.
Mass displacement is what Netanyahu and his far right political member want, agree to that is playing into his greasy pig hand.
I think he'd also be okay with killing them, which is worse.

Is murder a biological need of Israelis to not be able to hold off ?
I'm saying people not in charge of Israel. Even citizens of Israel (which I'm guessing most of us are not) have limited say in the matter.
