"Biden's Struggle with Gaza and Netanyahu's Unyielding Grip"

President Biden and his administration privately expressed doubts about Israel's conduct in the Gaza conflict, but publicly provided unwavering support. The administration's strategy to influence Israel's actions has faced challenges, with growing frustration and uncertainty about the war's end. As the conflict continues, Biden faces criticism for his handling of the situation, particularly from progressive and Arab American communities. The U.S. has taken modest steps to distance itself from Netanyahu's government, but has also approved numerous weapons sales to Israel.
