US Backs Israeli Military Operations in Gaza

Published on 5.25.25

  The ongoing conflict in Gaza has sparked intense debate over the role of international support, particularly from the United States, in enabling Israel's military tactics. US President Joe Biden has been criticized for his administration's backing of Israel's actions, despite mounting pressure to intervene and alleviate the humanitarian crisis. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu cited "practical and diplomatic reasons" for resuming aid into Gaza, but emphasized that he aims to bring the entire territory under control. This stance is in line with US support for Israel's military efforts, as seen in the US-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation's plan to move aid into the territory despite being accused of working closely with Israel. The Israeli military has intensified its operations against Hamas militants, striking 160 terror targets in Gaza over the past day and killing at least 3,340 people since March 18. The World Health Organisation has warned that Gaza's two million residents are starving due to tonnes of food being blocked at the border just minutes away. This growing international pressure may force a reevaluation of US support for Israel's military tactics and its handling of the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert believes that US pressure could be enough to stop the war in Gaza, suggesting that international intervention may be necessary to alleviate the crisis.
