An Israeli Channel 13 investigation has exposed the Biden administration’s complicity in Israel’s 19-month war on Gaza, Drop Site News reports.

Nine top Biden officials acknowledged avoiding real pressure on Israel — even as the death toll surpassed 30,000. Israeli leaders openly bragged they dragged out the conflict, playing for time until Donald Trump’s return, according to the report.

Former US national security adviser Jake Sullivan, Ambassador Tom Nides, and others defended their unwavering support for Israel — even as they admitted enabling a campaign one US aide described as “killing and destroying for the sake of killing and destroying.”

The report added that former Israeli ambassador Michael Herzog declared: “God did the State of Israel a favour that Biden was the president during this period, because it could have been much worse. We fought [in Gaza] for over a year, and the administration never came to us and said, ‘ceasefire now.’ It never did. And that’s not to be taken for granted.”

Senior US national security aide Ilan Goldenberg described the conflict’s aimlessness: “If they’re never going to do this, it doesn’t matter what the outcome is, Hamas is still going to control Gaza. You’re just killing and destroying for the sake of killing and destroying. But you’re not building an alternative.”

Biden aides privately admitted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was dragging out the conflict. “He’s undercutting it every step of the way,” said Goldenberg. “All the security people are coming out and saying it.”
