President Joe Biden’s decision to withhold bombs from Israel is causing quite a stir over in the Middle East. According to a military source in Israel, this move is going to result in more Israeli soldiers having to risk their lives by entering dangerous, booby-trapped buildings that would have been taken out from the air if they had the right weapons.
Apparently, the Biden administration has decided to hold back on providing Israel with some heavy-duty bombs and artillery rounds, all because they didn’t agree with Israel’s plan to take out Hamas’s stronghold in Rafah. This has left Israel in a bit of a pickle, as they need to keep up the offensive but now have limited firepower to do so.
Don't be deceived by Biden's "pause" in sending heavy bombs and artillery shells to Israel.
If Biden truly wanted to stop Israel's genocidal rampage, he would impose on Israel the kinds of sanctions that he imposed on Russia.

The situation in Rafah sounds like a real mess, with buildings and tunnels rigged to explode at a moment’s notice. Hamas seems to have been preparing for this showdown for a while, especially since Israel had to delay their operation for three whole months due to Biden’s interference. It’s like the bad guys got a head start while the heroes were stuck twiddling their thumbs.
Despite the setbacks, Israel is not backing down. They see wiping out Hamas in Rafah as a must-do mission. But now, instead of using their usual tactic of bombing the enemy from afar, Israeli soldiers will have to go in on foot. This puts them at greater risk, and sadly, more soldiers may end up paying the ultimate price for Biden’s decision.
To make matters worse, Hamas isn’t playing nice. They’ve been causing trouble by attacking border crossings and launching rockets into Israeli territory. This has forced the Israel Defense Forces to step up their game and take control of key areas in Gaza. It’s a high-stakes game, and Israel is feeling the pressure to act swiftly and decisively.
In the end, it seems like President Biden’s interference has only complicated an already volatile situation. Israeli soldiers are now facing greater danger, and the people back home are understandably upset about it all. Let’s hope that cooler heads prevail, and a resolution can be reached without any more unnecessary bloodshed.
