Joe Biden, Chuck Schumer, Democrats, won't let Israel win

Anyone that's paid attention to Israel after the October 7th Massacre has seen that Joe Biden's heart wasn't into Israel defeating Hamas. Though the press insisted that Biden really meant it when he said he'd stand steadfast with Israel, there were too many signals that the alliance was a wobbly alliance from the start.

This week, Chuck Schumer took to the Senate floor to call for regime change in Israel. That's bad but it isn't the worst. The previous week, Joe Biden invited Benni Gantz, Bibi Netanyahu's chief rival, to the White House. It's apparent that these Democrats' definition of a 2-State Solution is doing everything they can to keep Minnesota and Michigan in the Democrats' column.

After reading this WSJ article, it's totally obvious that this administration doesn't want Israel to defeat the Hamas terrorists. The article opens by saying "Mounting international pressure to end the war won’t weaken Israel’s resolve to accomplish its mission of destroying Hamas, freeing the hostages and guaranteeing that Gaza will never pose a threat to Israel again. Detractors dismiss total victory as implausible, but the facts on the ground indicate otherwise."

Then the article moves onto this:

Israel has already dismantled 18 of Hamas’s 24 battalions, incapacitated more than 21,500 Hamas terrorists—about two-thirds of its force, including two of the top four leaders—and destroyed significant terror tunnels. By contrast, it took U.S. military forces nine months to take out 5,000 ISIS fighters in Mosul.

John Spencer, chairman of urban warfare studies at West Point, described Israel’s achievements as "unprecedented," especially given the complex combat conditions above and below ground. Mr. Spencer says that Israel is setting the "gold standard" for avoiding civilian casualties.

Biden has cointinually criticized Israel for not keeping civilian casualties low. This information blows that criticism to little bits:
Israel doesn’t need prompting to provide humanitarian aid or to act with caution. According to retired British Col. Richard Kemp, the average combatant-to-civilian death ratio in Gaza is about 1 to 1.5. This is astonishing since, according to the United Nations, the average combatant-to-civilian death ratio in urban warfare has been 1 to 9. Israel seeks to minimize civilian casualties, while Hamas seeks to maximize civilian casualties and use them as a propaganda tool. We cannot let Hamas’s strategy pay off.
The sharp knives are definitely out:

It's painfully obvious that Israel isn't into slaughtering Gazans willy-nilly. That indicates that the Biden administration is making things up when it talks about Israel needing to be more careful. Israel is already holding itself to the highest rate of accountability in the world. This just Biden playing to his Palestinian base in Michigan. It doesn't have anything to do with Israel being barbaric.
