Could be but it seems clear Biden is seeing the entire chess board and is attempting to do the best that can be done with the pieces available. There was news last night that a deal may be afoot that could provide a cease fire by next Monday 3/4. Obviously, "deals" in an area with a 70+ year history of constant conflict mean much less than in "normal" conflicts. However, at this point, anything would be an improvement over the destruction of dozens of square miles of densely populated areas that will create a housing shortage and humanitarian crisis for decades, which will only fuel the next generation of the cycle of madness.
Indeed. I suspect that even if Biden was much more vocally critical of Israel's actions, and stopped all financial and military aid, Israel would still not change their tactics or their goal or timeline. For that matter, does Israel even need our aid? They certainly have a much greater supply of military resources than Ukraine!
