Even as this blurb is being written, the Rafah offensive has begun in Gaza, an offensive the Biden administration tried to stop. First, the administration tried to halt the Rafah offensive by withholding ammunition needed by Israel for the offensive, second they withheld intelligence locating Hamas’ top leaders.
According to anonymous sources, the Israelis were informed of the intel and offered it in exchange for a halt to the then-planned Rafah offensive. The offensive began May 6, but details of the offensive, even an acknowledgment of it, have been slow in coming.

With friends like President Joe Biden, who needs enemies?
In a report released to Congress on Friday, the Biden administration concluded it was “reasonable to assess” that Israel had violated international humanitarian law using U.S. arms in Gaza. Although the report states that U.S. officials were unable to “link specific U.S. weapons to individual strikes by Israeli forces in Gaza” due to “wartime conditions,” it claims that “there have been sufficient reported incidents to raise serious concerns.”
The following sentence tells you all you need to know: “[T]he State Department has received reporting from multiple credible UN and non-governmental sources on alleged human rights violations by Israeli forces during the reporting period.”
The Washington Post reported that Biden ordered the investigation in February after congressional Democrats, led by Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD), proposed legislation to determine whether the Israel Defense Forces had used U.S.-provided arms in an unlawful manner in Gaza.
