Washington (AFP) - Days after the October 7 attack, Joe Biden walked onto the tarmac in Tel Aviv and offered a warm bear hug to Benjamin Netanyahu, a sign both of solid support for Israel and the US president's long, if not uncomplicated, relationship with the prime minister. Seven months into the devastating conflict, the gentle approach is over. Biden, who memorably once wrote to Netanyahu "I love you," has for the first time raised the ultimate leverage the United States has on Israel -- military aid, which totals $3 billion a year. Biden -- whose backing for Israel in the face of civilian ...

Las universidades españolas han anunciado que están dispuestas a romper sus vínculos con los centros educativos y de investigación israelíes "que no hayan expresado un firme compromiso con la paz y el cumplimiento del derecho internacional humanitario", según afirman en un comunicado conjunto emitido por la Conferencia de Rectores de Universidades Españolas (CRUE) este jueves.

US-Präsident Joe Biden hat Israel gewarnt, dass Washington einige Waffenlieferungen einstellen werde, wenn es seine seit langem angedrohte Bodenoffensive in Rafah fortsetzt. Es ist die bisher schärfste Warnung von Israels treuestem Verbündeten. Sie wird ausgesprochen, während die Sorge um die vertriebenen palästinensischen Zivilisten, die in der Stadt im Süden von Gaza leben, weiter wächst. Biden milderte seine Warnung jedoch mit einigen beruhigenden Worten ab und sagte, die USA würden "weiterhin dafür sorgen, dass Israel sicher ist". Am Mittwoch erklärte der Sprecher des Außenministeriums, Ma...

US President Joe Biden has warned Israel that Washington will stop supplying some weapons if it goes ahead with its long-threatened ground offensive in Rafah. It's the starkest warning yet from Israel's staunchest ally amid growing concerns for the displaced Palestinian civilians living in the south Gaza city. But Biden softened his warning with some words of reassurance, saying the US would "continue to make sure Israel is secure". On Wednesday, State Department Spokesperson Matthew Miller told reporters Washington had already suspended a shipment containing thousands of bombs. "They have not...

Washington ha suspendido un envío de miles de bombas a Israel por temor a que el país esté a punto de lanzar una ofensiva terrestre a gran escala en Rafah. Israel lanzó una operación "limitada" en la ciudad el martes, tomando el paso fronterizo con Egipto en un intento por cortar las líneas de suministro a Hamás. "Seguimos preocupados por una posible operación en Rafah. Lo hemos dejado bastante claro. Se lo dejamos claro al Gobierno israelí en privado y, por supuesto, todos, desde el presidente para abajo, lo han dejado claro públicamente", declaró Matthew Miller, portavoz del Departamento de ...

Washington (AFP) - President Joe Biden said Wednesday he would stop US weapons supplies to Israel if it attacks Rafah in southern Gaza, his most direct warning to date over the prosecution of the war against Hamas. In an interview with CNN Biden also deplored the fact that civilians had been killed by the dropping of US bombs on the Palestinian territory. His fresh warning came after the US last week halted a shipment of huge American bombs to Israel as it appeared ready to proceed with a major attack on Rafah -- a city packed with Palestinian civilians sheltering near the Egyptian border. "If...

Washington (AFP) - Police forcibly cleared an encampment of pro-Palestinian protesters at George Washington University in the US capital on Wednesday, arresting dozens in the latest clash with students demonstrating over the Israeli offensive in Gaza. Republicans in Congress had pressured local authorities to act on the encampment, summoning Washington's mayor and police chief to testify in the House of Representatives later Wednesday. But just after 4:00 am (0800 GMT), hundreds of officers moved in on a university quad, making arrests and using pepper spray. Police said 33 people were arreste...

Washington (AFP) - The United States said Wednesday it was considering potential further holds on weapons to Israel after it halted shipments of powerful bombs out of concern about plans for a Rafah invasion. Speaking to a congressional committee, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin confirmed the freeze last week on 1,800 2,000-lb (907 kg) bombs and 1,700 500-lb (226 kg) bombs. "We paused one shipment of high-payload munitions" for Israel but have not "made a final determination on how to proceed with that shipment," Austin said. State Department spokesman Matthew Miller said the United States had ...

New York (AFP) - With the dust still settling from protests at Columbia University, former and current students gathered last week to celebrate the career of Rashid Khalidi, one of the West's most prominent champions of Palestine. Some speakers at the two-day retirement conference drew a line between Khalidi's scholarship and the student protest movement, noting that the now-shuttered Columbia encampments included those who had studied under the Middle East history professor. But Khalidi, whose latest book on Palestine has been a best-seller since October, said his work has at most played a sm...
