<quotes>

The rules-based international order is central to our long-term security.

They help ensure that civilians are protected, and not targeted.

Democracies like ours are stronger and more secure when we uphold the law of war.

So we will continue to press Israel to protect civilians and to ensure the robust flow of humanitarian aid.

First and foremost, that’s the right thing to do. But it’s also good strategy.

The lesson is not that you can win in urban warfare by protecting civilians.. The lesson is that you can only win in urban warfare by protecting civilians.

I have repeatedly made clear to Israel’s leaders that protecting Palestinian civilians in Gaza is both a moral responsibility and a strategic imperative.

In this kind of a fight, the center of gravity is the civilian population. And if you drive them into the arms of the enemy, you replace a tactical victory with a strategic defeat.

</quotes>

It's refreshing to hear someone say outright that Netanyahu's strategy of "We'll keep murdering civilians until they love us" is not going to work, is never going to work, is the most ridiculous self-defeating strategy for diminishing hatred of Israel.

In just two months Netanyahu has single-handedly made Israel more hated across the world than any time in the last hundred years.

It's not surprising 80% of Israelis want rid of him and support for far-right parties has tanked.
