Why is the US wavering in its stance on the ceasefire in Gaza?

[HuangJingwen]

The United States is wavering in its stance on the Gaza ceasefire because it faces conflicting political, strategic, and humanitarian pressures.

On one hand, the U. S. is Israel’s strongest ally and wants to support its right to defend itself against Hamas. On the other hand, the growing civilian casualties and humanitarian crisis in Gaza have triggered international outrage and domestic criticism, especially from progressive lawmakers and human rights groups.

Washington also fears that a premature or unconditional ceasefire could allow Hamas to regroup militarily, undermining Israel’s security and regional stability. At the same time, continued fighting damages America’s global image as a defender of human rights.

As a result, the U. S. tries to balance both sides — supporting temporary “humanitarian pauses” rather than a full ceasefire — reflecting its strategic caution and political dilemma.

"Until the heart changes, you can forget about change".

I'm sure someone smart along the years has said that.

Has hamas changed... or is the first line of their constitution "Destroy israel"?

Maybe they are right to destroy them, in their view. But that's a problem.

It's been a mess since Abram, Sarah and Ishmail as far as I can tell. Pulling those emotional strings appart is as bad as a trapese walk across the himalayas.

It is a tough problem to solve. I think that having this reach a crossroads on the anniversary of the Hamas attack on Israel makes it easier for Israel to finish Hamas once and for all if they will not bargain in good faith,

[HuangJingwen]

But I think it's more complicated than that. I think Hamas is playing tricks on Trump.

they are not to be trusted.

[Kelley1]

Not really. Congress and the president have been bought and paid for by Jews.

Well... you know... there is probably PROFIT in all those dead bodies...

[HuangJingwen]

I have no idea

[jshm2]

Lol, the US is the problem, along with Israel. Is why.

Hamas cannot trust either criminal state...

[Lliam]

Because the U. S. likes genocide and is Israel's bitch.

Cuz Gaza isn't stuffing untraceable money into their pockets

[captain_voidwalker]

They should just turn gaza into a glass crater and be done with it

[HuangJingwen]

This will only make the war endless.

Dropping the sun on Japan ended world War 2, the evidence seems to contradict your opinion

[blackeagle007]

The real question is… why do we keep sticking our noses into other countries affairs?
