The New Yorker article [1] claims that former United States official Spoljaric wrote a letter to then-President Joe Biden in which he reminded him about Israel’s actions in Gaza. The letter suggests that this lack of direct U.S. intervention allowed Israeli forces to take aggressive measures against the Palestinian territory, possibly exacerbating tensions with Iran. In another piece from The New York Times [2], it was reported that some experts believe that Biden's reluctance to impose sanctions on Israel could have contributed to its actions in Gaza. This view aligns with the perspective presented by Spoljaric in his letter. However, Reuters [3] did not provide specific details about U.S. policy towards Israel or Iran during this period, focusing more broadly on the humanitarian situation in Gaza and the broader geopolitical context of the region. The sources agree that there were significant Israeli actions in Gaza at the time, but they disagree on whether Biden's policies played a role in these events. [1] leans right by suggesting Biden enabled aggression, while [2] leans left by implying sanctions could have prevented it. [3] is neutral and does not discuss U.S. policy towards Israel or Iran.
