The deadline will expire and nothing will happen to Israel. It was a fake attempt at showing action.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

It was very convenient that the deadline was after the elections.
Yeah, Israel knows not a damn thing will happen now that Trump and MAGA got back into power. All they have to do is wait it out for a few months.
I doubt Israel feels the need to wait out the months. Nothing was happening before, even when Israel crossed "red lines". Here's an impact snapshot for Nov. 5th. With Biden in power the situation right now is:
- 345,000 people are at the UN's highest level of starvation (Level 5 - catastrophic). 876,000 are at Level 4 - emergency.
- 87% of housing units are completely destroyed or seriously damaged. Average space for people in shelters is 1.5sq meters (5sq feet), less than half the 3.5sq meters (11.5sq feet) considered the humane minimum.
- At least 137 journalists killed, 47 injured, 71 arrested. It's the deadliest period since the CPJ started collecting data in 1992.
Remember the outrage when the rocket hit the parking lot outside Al-Ahli hospital a few days into the war, with both sides claiming they'd never attack a hospital? Now 19 of 36 hospitals hospitals are completely out of service, and the remaining 17 are only partially functional. 130 ambulances have been damaged or destroyed.
The change Israel has announced post-election is plans to bring Israeli sovereignty to the West Bank, calling the Trump presidency "an opportunity".
Trump’s not in office yet. Biden could begin complying with the law now, and stop approving arms for Israel.
Could is doing some heavy lifting in that statement
They'll be out of office and out of public jobs for the rest of their lives in a couple of weeks, there's not a single reason for them to do anything against Israel anymore
Might help their case in a future trial at The Hague. Or they could just stop arming genocide because it’s the only moral thing to do.
Lol if you think they're moral. They're leading a country built on genocide
We know the government will do nothing in a few days. Biden/Harris has taken more AIPAC money than many Republicans combined.
