No disagreement between 'Israel', US on goal of war on Gaza

The Israeli occupation claims that it has no disagreement with the United States on the proclaimed goal of ending Hamas.

Israeli officials underlined that there exist no disagreements with the United States regarding ending the Hamas Resistance movement, the Israeli Ynet website reported on Tuesday.

The United States "is not saying stop the war and do not fight anymore," the Israeli outlet added.

The United States has been playing both sides; on one end, it supports and funds the Israeli occupation's aggression on Gaza, but on the other, it claims to be against the commission of massacres against Palestinians.

The Intercept published last week analysis supporting the viewpoint that the dispute between "Tel Aviv" and Washington is secondary, pointing out that members of the US Congress, who are urging President Joe Biden's administration to press for a ceasefire, insist on "eliminating Hamas" to end the aggression.

The report explained that talk of this dispute comes at a time when the US Congress is preparing to approve a package of aid to "Israel" worth more than $14 billion, a glaring contradiction between the US' word of mouth and actual action.

During a press briefing on Friday, US National Security Spokesman John Kirby affirmed that the US supports "Israel’s" initiative to resume bombing Gaza, but claimed its reiteration that it "take[s] into account the limitations of the laws of war by minimizing civilian casualties."

"We don't support a reduction in the geographical limits of Gaza," he noted. 

The US House of Representatives approved a $14.3bn aid bill to 'Israel', despite warnings against the bill. The Republican measure was approved by 226-196, including 12 Democrats and two rejected Republican votes. 

Republicans proposed slashing $14.3 billion in funds for the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), which is in charge of collecting US federal taxes, to balance the expense of aid to "Israel". However, the neutral Congressional Budget Office (CBO) stated that the proposed IRS funding cuts would result in less tax income and would increase the US deficit by roughly $12.5 billion over the next decade.

This comes after Biden was ramping up military aid to "Israel" to pave the way for a “swift, decisive and overwhelming” response against the Palestinian Resistance, as the White House was requesting an additional $14 billion in support from Congress - most of which was meant for weapons.

The US military claims to have prepared 2,000 personnel and a range of units on a heightened standby for potential deployment to "Israel". However, defense officials stated that the forces are not intended to serve in combat roles and are tasked with advising and medical roles, but some could enter to support Israeli forces.

Two aircraft carrier groups, USS Gerald R. Ford and USS Dwight D. Eisenhower, have already been sent to the region, which includes one missile cruiser, at least two destroyers, and dozens of aircraft including jet fighters alongside around 5,000 servicemen and women.
