T. Belman. This is crazy, Israel has the best record of avoiding civilian deaths. No one else comes close.
Yet the US says We will not accept any more thousands of innocent deaths in Rafah, like in Gaza and Khan Yunis.”

(IMRA translation) The Chief of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the United States, General Charles Brown, presented in a conversation with the Chief of Staff, Hertzi Halevi, the American proposal for military activity in Rafah, this was published this evening (Saturday) in “Kan News”. The American position that was conveyed to the Chief of Staff: We will not accept any more thousands of innocent deaths in Rafah, like in Gaza and Khan Yunis.”
The American outline for activity in Rafah
> Technologies on the Egyptian border – border closures and technological surveillance using cameras and sensors.
> Isolation of Rafah and its isolation by IDF forces.
> Targeted raids on targeted targets based on intelligence information.
> Establishment of a joint command center with the US to coordinate activities in the southern Gaza Strip.
The American Chief of Staff’s conversation with Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi took place during Defense Minister Gallant’s visit to the Pentagon, when the United States Army wanted to talk at a professional level with the top of the IDF.
In addition, the Americans expressed frustration that Israel has not yet prepared plans for the day after – who will rule Gaza after the war.
I’ll bet the Americans advised Israel to use their day after plan from. Afghanistan. It sure worked well for them.
Israel will attack Rafah despite any American objections.
Israel will wait out the Biden administration. Shame if when completed that new dock that Biden is building in Gaza “mistakenly” gets bombed and taken out by the IDF.
