Trying to work the issue from every angle on a daily basis to get urgent medical and food aid in, I've come to the conclusion that President Joe Biden, for whom I hosted fundraisers and worked to elect in 2020, has signed on to Israel's end goal of the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians in Gaza.
The Biden administration isn't just complicit by refusing to condemn Israel's blockade of humanitarian aid - an absurd situation leading the U.S. to incur significant costs and unnecessary risks for symbolic airdrops.
He's actively supporting Israel's oft-stated but ill-defined war aim of eradicating Hamas, a military effort with little concern for Palestinian lives or the fate of Israel's hostages held in Gaza.
Her question laid bare the ugly reality of Biden's complicity in Israel's campaign resulting in the ethnic cleansing of Gaza.
Biden and his advisers' refusal to change policy on aid to Israel or rethink the diplomatic cover it provides for Israel at the United Nations reveals a U.S. presidency with little regard for civilians in Gaza.
The largest humanitarian aid body in Gaza, UNRWA was targeted by Israel with unfounded claims - that its employees participated in the October 7 attack in Israel.
Instead, Biden chose to engage in humanitarian aid theater, endorsing costly, dangerous, and impractical methods for transporting aid into Gaza that won't require forcing Israel to end its blockade of food and medicine.
