News — More cosponsors for Sen. Chris Van Hollen’s amendment to the supplemental that effectively puts human-rights conditions on U.S. foreign aid. Would apply to all countries but obviously targeted at Israel.

Comes as Dems criticize Netanyahu’s comments re: two-state solution

New: Biden's team says it's working 'relentlessly' to get aid into Gaza amid warnings that 2 million people are at risk of famine.

But Secretary Blinken did not secure major gains on his recent Israel trip.

And humanitarian envoy David Satterfield spent the holidays in Hawaii.

NEW: Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu just admitted that Israel is deliberately restricting the entry of humanitarian aid to Gaza.

US law prohibits President Biden from providing security assistance to a country that restricts the delivery of US humanitarian aid: thehill.com/opinion/nation…

If we did a podcast responding to the lines most commonly used to defend the war on Gaza, which ones would you like to hear discussed?

Grateful to HuffPost leadership for challenging gov't intimidation & 'an outrageous...completely inappropriate' WH claim I made up quotes.

WH has now shifted its narrative for the third time.

I look forward to an apology + retraction.

EXCLU: Biden aide Brett McGurk's 90-day plan for Gaza focuses on a Saudi-Israel deal, sidelining Palestine & alarming US officials
-McGurk envisions a 'Jerusalem-Jeddah Pact' & a 'victory tour'
-Blinken raised one aspect to top Palestinians & was rebuffed

Doubtful that US military strikes on Houthis will stop the Houthi missile attacks in the Red Sea. They have said they won’t stop until there’s a ceasefire in Gaza.
