While I agree generally with Biden's foreign policy, his tendency to hedge, first with Ukraine (don't get too aggressive with Russia) and now with Israel (no bombing but we'll help you defend yourself), undercuts its effectiveness. In order for Ukraine and Israel to win in the battlefield and then at the negotiating table, they must be aggressive. They will not win by just playing defense. Nor will Russia, Iran and Iranian proxy forces be deterred if US aid comes so heavily conditioned.
Well I don't want a President who immediately goes in to a situation without some consideration and analysis. I'm no military expert, but seems Hamas does need to be defeated for Israel's safety.

But what were the alternatives?
