Haaretz: Biden will make tough decisions he previously avoided to end the Gaza war
Haaretz newspaper quoted Israeli officials as saying that they believe that US President Joe Biden will take steps during the last two and a half months of his term to end the war on the Gaza Strip.
The Israeli officials, whose identities weren’t revealed by the Israeli newspaper, stated that Biden’s supposed steps would include decisions that he had previously avoided, such as not protecting Israel in international forums and slowing down the supply of weapons to it.
Haaretz also quoted Western diplomats as saying that there are growing suspicions that Israel is carrying out a mass displacement of Palestinians from the northern Gaza Strip.
Western diplomats stressed that if Washington concludes that Israel is implementing the generals’ plan in northern Gaza, it will be forced to take action, according to their expression, without indicating the nature of that action.
The Generals’ Plan is a military plan proposed by former Israeli army general Giora Eiland to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and adopted by a large number of army generals.
The plan was drawn up in September 2024, with the aim of forcibly displacing the residents of the northern Gaza Strip, by imposing a complete blockade on the area, including preventing the entry of humanitarian aid, to starve the remaining civilians, as well as the resistance fighters, and present them with two options: either death or surrender.
Despite the great and continuous US military and diplomatic support for Israel during its aggression on Gaza, US President Joe Biden confirms in his statements that his administration seeks to reach an agreement to cease fire in the Strip and release the Israeli detainees there.
