I've been trying to imagine why Tired Old Joe suddenly is calling for a ceasefire. My wild guess is that he's worried that an invasion of Rafah would be butchery and a bloodbath so bad that the aftermath could continue to election day and he might have totally fucked himself out of any chance for a second term.
Definitely the optics of white aid workers being killed by the IOF forcing him to do something.
During the coux back in like 2014 or something, I know CNN made a point of catching all the blonde Ukrainians where they could on camera. Fox focused on the more olive-toned.Slavs in the bunch.
He's already done that. There's no undoing it short of actually punishing Israel in a major way.
"And another thing, I'm not genociding, please don't put it in the newspaper that I'm genociding"
My guess was the hoothi were about to do something cool. They did just get hypersonics and the us is now trying diplomatic solutions. They should still sink an aircraft carrier tho
