Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he was 'determined' to continue the operation in Gaza until his objectives had been met, shrugging off U.S. President Joe Biden's demand to de-escalate hostilities.
After a visit to military headquarters, he said he appreciated American support but would push ahead until calm had been restored.
His response came hours after Biden told him in a phone call to scale back attacks that have killed hundreds of Palestinians.
It marked a shift from Biden's public position of support for Israel's right to defend itself from Hamas rocket attacks and follows another night of strikes against targets in Gaza.

WNU Editor: President Biden is under pressure from progressive members of the Democrat party. This more forceful statement from him to end to the war comes hours after this confrontation yesterday .... U.S. Rep. Rashida Tlaib Confronts Pressident Biden On An Airport Tarmac To Express Her Dissatisfaction With The U.S. Response To The Israel - Hamas War (May 189, 2021).
But this conflict is far from over. The 2014 war lasted almost 7 weeks. I can see the same time frame happening in this one.

I admit I have zero knowledge of who is right and who is wrong in this conflict
But if the batshit crazy Tabib is on the side of Palestinians, count me in for the other side. This woman is obscene and has been wrong do many times and been so divisive and so full of hatred for her own country that she does Palestinians a big disservice by siding with them
Same with the terror group BLM.. they support Palestinians and I'm on the other side. BLM caused massive havoc in the US and was cheered on and financed by international corporations with stake in China who wanted to please the CCP and keep their access to the Chinese markets
So yeah..fck Palestinians then.
Plus I know many Israelis and none of them firebombed stores, attacked police and innocent white civilians.
So fck them
How hings such as tlaib get elected to any position is a Great Mystery of Life. An obnoxious and useless mouth as she would be labeled while being dragged off to the ovens in another era.
Local news it presenting the discussions as a done deal. That is Netanyahu agreed in principle to a ceasefire.
It is like the liberals think that, if they think or say it, then it is so. The one s a little less delusional think that if they can get the news agencies to report it a certain then now r in the near future people will be force to comply in the USA or a foreign land.
The news of the last few years has been incredible in the announcers not batting an eye while giving a liberal line. Something is up. They want the money that badly or they are clueless or something.
I see a ceasefire as a Hamas rest, rearm, and reassess period. That is all Hamas wants out of it. Why should it be given to them. A ceasefire is nothing but a respite for these warmongers, who have know intention of agreeing to any ceasefire ever, if they had the upper hand.
Joe Biden had a good day. He got to sit behind a car steering wheel and pretend he was driving. People are taking him seriously.
WATCH OUT PUTIN!

Any American who lived in the 70's recognize the Palestinians for what they are: Terrorists. I remember the execution of the Israeli athletes at the Munich Olympics. The Palestinians are murderers, plain and simple. I admire the Israeli restraint when dealing with the Palestinians, who continue to want to destroy Israel. The Palestinians can have peace whenever they want it by laying down their arms and acknowledging Israel right to exist. But they will never do it because of their insanity. One can look into the future and see only a cataclysmic end to this situation. When this occurs, Palestinians and Iranians will not be claiming any victory.
