Leaked Emails Warn U.S. Diplomats Against Calling For ‘De-Escalation’ In Gaza
WWW.HUFFPOST.COM
As Israel escalates its offensive, U.S. diplomats are being discouraged from publicly using three phrases that would urge calm.QuoteAs Israel escalates its attacks on Gaza, the State Department is discouraging diplomats working on Middle East issues from making public statements suggesting the U.S. wants to see less violence, according to internal emails viewed by HuffPost.
In messages circulated on Friday, State Department staff wrote that high-level officials do not want press materials to include three specific phrases: “de-escalation/ceasefire,” “end to violence/bloodshed” and “restoring calm.”
The revelation provides a stunning signal about the Biden administration’s reluctance to push for Israeli restraint as the close U.S. partner expands the offensive it launched after Hamas ― which rules Gaza ― attacked Israeli communities on Oct. 7.
