"Biden's Complex Relationship with Israel: Navigating Gaza and America's Image in the Middle East"

Joe Biden's unwavering support for Israel's offensive in Gaza can be traced back to his long-standing affinity for the country, dating back to a meeting with Menachem Begin in 1982. Despite growing anger over the civilian casualties in Gaza, Biden has continued to back Israel's right to retaliate against Hamas, even as calls within the US to halt weapons shipments to Israel gain traction. While Biden has expressed concern for Palestinian civilians, his stance remains rooted in a belief in Israel's importance for US interests in the region, leading to criticism from younger generations and some within his own party.

"Dutch Court Halts Export of F-35 Fighter Jet Parts to Israel Over Law Violations Concerns"

A Dutch appeals court has ordered the government to block all exports of F-35 fighter jet parts to Israel due to concerns about their use in violations of international law during Israel's Gaza offensive. The court dismissed a request to suspend the order and stated that there is a clear risk of the parts being used in serious violations of international humanitarian law. The government plans to appeal the decision, emphasizing the importance of the F-35s for Israel's security. This ruling follows concerns raised by human rights groups and a previous lower court ruling that stopped short of halting the exports.

"UN Court Ruling on South Africa's Request to Halt Israel's Gaza Offensive and ICJ Genocide Case"

The United Nations' top court will issue a decision on South Africa's request for interim orders in a genocide case against Israel, including a request for Israel to halt its offensive in Gaza. South Africa alleges that Israel's military action in its war with Hamas in Gaza amounts to genocide, a claim strongly rejected by Israel. The court's ruling, set for Friday, will not be on the merits of South Africa's claims, but rather on whether provisional measures should be granted. Israel's compliance with any such measures remains uncertain, as it has vowed to press ahead with the offensive.
