This is the US modus operandi on the peace process since the mid 1980s.
The reason they said no was because it was unrealistic. The reason they said it was unrealistic was because Israel would never agree. The reason Israel would never agree is because the US under both parties preemptively swears off ever imposing consequences onto Israel. This is a circular logic.

It's been raining in Gaza, everyone is cold and wet. 💔
In this picture, I stand before our destroyed home… nothing left but rubble 💔
We live in cold, harsh displacement.

I urgently need $500 for warm clothes and blankets.

Zionists are ghouls.

Laughing in a Palestinian's home after killing him. This is the face of Zionism: cruelty, arrogance, and evil.”

We fed dozens of MQ-9s to the Yemeni mountains for 2 straight years! Three SEALs drowned themselves in the Red Sea for no reason! US army guys got themselves crushed to death by a floating dock so Biden could get a headline in the NYT! Forest Service guys hid from the IDF rape gangs at Sde Teiman!
The United States expended 25% of its entire missile defense capacity to prevent Israel from facing consequences for its war of aggression against Iran! The US Navy pushed maintenance schedules back years to kill Yemenis on behalf of Israel! They poured F/A-18s into the Red Sea for Israel!
I don't want to directly quote tweet but there are apparently still people who think the US is somehow only "indirectly" involved in the genocide in Gaza. We've spent probably $50+ billion to make sure it happens! American soldiers have killed and died making sure it continues!
