Israel "Threatens" To Go It Alone In Gaza

I'm not sure how he thinks this is a threat, but whatever: "Netanyahu says he is going into Rafah with or without American support: Israeli PM tells Blinken he is going to 'finish Hamas' in and will 'do it alone' if he doesn't get U.S. backing in huge snub to Biden." Netanyahu announced today:

    'Today, I met with the U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken. I conveyed my deep appreciation for our joint effort in combating Hamas for over five months,' Netanyahu said.

    'I emphasized our commitment to evacuating civilians from conflict zones and addressing humanitarian needs. However, I underscored the necessity of entering the Strip and neutralizing the remaining militias to defeat Hamas,' he added. 

    'While I expressed hope for U.S. support, I made it clear that if necessary, we would proceed independently.'
