Shock in Israel... America demands a halt to military operations in Gaza until Hamas answers the fatal question

Updates on the Al-Aqsa Flood operation presented in this episode of Samri Channel.
Starting with former US President Barack Obama, who criticized Israel's decision to cut off supplies to the besieged Gaza Strip, in the midst of the war it was waging against Hamas, warning of the dangerous repercussions entailed by this decision. Barack Obama's warning came during an article he published on the social media platform "Medium" entitled "Thoughts about Israel and Gaza" on Monday night.

Obama, who assumed the presidency of the United States between 2009 and 2017, said, "The Israeli government's decision to cut off food, water, and electricity not only threatens to exacerbate the humanitarian crisis, but it could also lead to the hardening of Palestinian attitudes for generations." He added that the decision could "also lead to the erosion of international support for Israel, which may be in the interest of Israel's enemies, and undermine long-term efforts to achieve peace and stability in the region."

During the Obama era, Israel launched two wars on the Gaza Strip in 2012 and 2014. Regarding the possible ground attack on the Gaza Strip, the former US President said that the whole world is closely monitoring the unfolding events, indicating that any Israeli military strategy that ignores human losses may ultimately lead to adverse results. He said that thousands of Palestinians were killed during the bombing in Gaza, including many children, and hundreds of thousands of residents were forced to flee their homes.

In his article, Obama renewed his support for Israel's right to defend its citizens after the attack launched by Hamas on October 7. He said that he offers his full support to the current US President, Joe Biden, in supporting Israel to pursue Hamas, dismantle its military capabilities and return hundreds of detainees in Gaza. But Obama added, "Even as we support Israel, we must be clear about how it will fight this battle with Hamas." He pointed to what Biden said "repeatedly that the Israeli strategy must adhere to international law, including laws that seek to avoid civilian death and injury as much as possible." However, he said, "The task is difficult. Any war is always tragic, and even with the most carefully planned military operations, civilians are often exposed to danger."

On the other hand, the American Vice website said in a recent analysis that the expansion of the Israeli army across the Gaza and southern Lebanon fronts, in addition to the consumption of its forces over the past year in clashes against Palestinian factions in the West Bank, reduces its chances of victory in the expected ground battle inside the Gaza Strip against the Hamas movement. .

The American newspaper The New York Times had quoted an informed source as saying that Washington had asked Israel to postpone the start of the ground operation in the Gaza Strip, in order to better prepare for possible attacks on the American army in the region. The source expects that the number of attacks on American forces may increase after Israel decides to send forces to Gaza. The United States indicates that the attacks could be carried out by regional groups supported by Iran. According to the newspaper, the administration of US President Joe Biden asked Israel to postpone the operation not only for security reasons: Washington wants to “buy time” for negotiations to arrange the release of the hostages and the delivery of humanitarian aid.

The newspaper reported that the American administration does not make any demands to Israel, but it still supports this country’s intention to carry out a ground operation and destroy the Hamas movement. The source noted to the newspaper that US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin conveyed advice to Israel to delay the start of the ground operation. The newspaper indicated that the Minister of Defense communicates almost daily with his Israeli counterpart, Yoav Gallant, and the two parties discuss the supply of weapons and the deployment of American forces in the region.

One of the newspaper's sources said that Austin also informed the Israeli Defense Minister that the return of the hostages was a priority for the United States.
