People in government really love to tap dance around this issue. It's all just theater, in the end it's:

- US funding buying
- US weapons provided by
- US companies in the military industrial complex along with
- US intelligence sharing combined with
- US "negotiation" in these so-called cease-fire attempts and
- US coverage for Israel in the UN and internationally 
- With US food aide and 
- US intimidation of Israel's enemies by sending CSG's and 
- US direct protection by shooting down retaliatory strikes


And now we think there's a possible role, maybe, possibly, but only if time allows, for the US in postwar (Assuming we ever get there) Gaza. 

Its laughable, it's like a game of pretend where we just say that there's this rogue guy in Israel that's driving all this, and it's got nothing to do with our actual policies and strategic goals. Well, people will believe anything if you say it enough times I guess...
