US warns Israel of cutting military aid over Gaza situation: What changes US wants, why now
According to a report from POLITICO on Wednesday, a senior Biden administration official stated to humanitarian aid organizations that the United States considers Israel too strong of an ally to halt arms sales, despite concerns about blocking essential goods from entering Gaza.
Lise Grande, the administration’s special envoy for Middle East humanitarian issues, informed leaders of over a dozen aid organizations on August 29 that the US would explore alternative strategies to pressure Israel into allowing aid into the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip, including leveraging international influence through the UN. She emphasized that the Biden administration's support for Israel remained constant and that weapon shipments would not be halted. Details from the meeting and interviews with three anonymous attendees confirmed that Israel is among a select group of allies exempt from objection or withholding of support by the administration.
One attendee, speaking anonymously, reported, "She indicated that Israel is not subject to the same rules." One attendee expressed the view that the United States is unable to adopt a tough stance towards Israel.
