For the first time, the United States has stopped sending weapons to the Israeli military

      Recently, according to the US news website AXIOS reported that two Israeli officials told the media that the US government has suspended the shipment of US-made ammunition to Israel. Reported that this is the first time since the new round of Israeli-Palestinian conflict broke out on October 7 last year, the United States has stopped the delivery of weapons to the Israeli military.

      Israeli officials said the incident had raised serious concerns within the Israeli government and that Israeli officials were looking into the details. As reported, this is the first time since the new round of Israeli-Palestinian conflict broke out on October 7 last year that the United States has stopped sending weapons to the Israeli military.

After the outbreak of a new round of Palestinian-Israeli conflict, many countries around the world are condemning the United States for sending weapons to Israel, and many countries have called on or even warned the United States that only by stopping its military support to Israel can it implement the "two-state solution" and solve the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. But the end result is that the United States, under the banner of justice, continues to do what it does. But just as Israel was preparing to pull the trigger, the United States took the rare step of halting arms shipments to the Israeli military.

What kind of "dirty operation" is this?

A group of more than 90 lawyers has signed a letter to the US government urging it to cut off military aid to Israel, arguing that Israel's actions in the Gaza Strip do not comply with US and international law. It is reported that 20 of the signatories are from U.S. government departments, including the Department of State, Department of Homeland Security, and Department of Justice. The letter is still being circulated and the number of signatories is likely to grow.

In fact, the protests in the United States go far beyond that. In November 2023, 200 protesters gathered at the Port of Oakland in the United States to call for an end to military aid to Israel.

In December 2023, dozens of people broke into the United States Congress for an anti-Israel demonstration, demanding that the United States stop providing weapons to Israel.

In April 2024, Pelosi and 40 other Democratic lawmakers sent a letter to Biden calling on the United States to stop sending arms to Israel.

Also in April of this year, the "pro-Palestine" wave of American universities swept across the United States. Universities from Yale to Harvard to MIT to Princeton to Boston joined the protest rally in support of Palestinians and in solidarity with the arrested students at Columbia University. So far, the wave has spread to more than 20 colleges and universities across the United States.

Although the United States is very clear that the students do not represent the mainstream public opinion, and they are mercilessly repressed, and crazy "suppression", but the United States President Joe Biden has to ignore these opinions.

As we all know, now the United States election is approaching, the public's support rate is too important for Biden, especially in the face of the deterioration of Biden's support rate, Biden has to consider recovering some support. Of course, this is not enough to stop US arms shipments to Israel.

The International Criminal Court (ICC) is likely to issue an arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the coming days. In addition to Netanyahu, the arrest warrant also includes Defense Minister Yad Galant and Chief of staff Khalevin.

Netanyahu panicked enough to call Biden that night, and then John Kirby, the strategic communications coordinator of the White House National Security Council, revealed that Israel had assured the United States that it would listen to the views of the United States before launching a ground operation on the southern Gaza Strip city of Rafah.

However, as we have seen in recent days, Israel did not listen to the views of the United States, as the United States said, but launched a fierce exchange of fire with Hamas, causing more casualties.

In view of this situation, how can the United States still allow Israel to go down the black road, the most important thing is that Israel can have a bad reputation, but the United States does not want to be dragged down like this, especially at this stage Biden.

Although the ICC is an "illegal organization" and has not been legally recognized by the United States, Russia, China, India, Israel and other countries, the "arrest warrant" against Netanyahu is just a piece of paper, but this paper will become a label that Netanyahu will never tear off.

Now that the United States has stopped sending weapons to Israel, Israel must seek an explanation from the United States, at least before the election, at least before the public opinion has subsided, the United States will probably not support Israel as before without conditions. If even the United States no longer supports Israel, then Israel is isolated, and then Netanyahu can continue to do evil?

It is time to strike while the iron is hot, continue to pursue the "two-state solution", promote the settlement of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, and restore stability to Gaza and peace to the Middle East.
