Benjamin Netanyahu has warned Lebanese people that they could face “destruction and suffering” like the Palestinians in Gaza if they don’t “free” the country from Hezbollah.
“You have an opportunity to save Lebanon before it falls into the abyss of a long war that will lead to destruction and suffering like we see in Gaza,” the Israeli prime minister said in a video address directed to the people of Lebanon.
“I say to you, the people of Lebanon: Free your country from Hezbollah so that this war can end.”
2/3rds of America support a ceasefire. This isn’t the will of the majority. Just the will of the rich.

If he did actually support a ceasefire, he would have enforced it. Israel is America’s proxy. Biden holds the cards here.

You’re talking as if political donors and lobbies don’t exist.
The popular opinion is to force Israel to make a ceasefire agreement. Biden hasn’t done it though. So you’re wrong.
If young people voted there wouldn’t be a single Republican anywhere. But they don’t. So you get the government you deserve.
I’m not American.
And this isn’t exclusively a Republican issue. A lot of Democrats support the war to continue, despite something like 80% of Democratic voters supporting a ceasefire.

Biden is fully capable of halting arms and funding to Israel himself if he actually wanted to. We saw him pause shipments temporarily to halt an Israeli invasion into Rafah a few months back. He also has valid legal justification to do it as well given the level of documentation available proving Israel is using US weapons to perform war crimes, since it’s illegal to sell weapons to countries committing war crimes as per US law. He can do it. He just chooses not to. He doesn’t even actually denounce the actions either.
