US support "to Israel's right to defend itself is ironclad... and that's not going to change."

The US' "ironclad commitment to Israel's security... has never been stronger."

"Without humanitarian aid, even our best friends will find it difficult to support us for a long time."

"Israel has to be very careful, because you're losing a lot of the world, you're losing a lot of support."

"If [Israel] keeps this up with this incredibly conservative government... they're going to lose support from around the world."

Israelis "are facing major, possibly generational damage to their reputation."

"[U]nless Israel changes its course it will continue to lose support."

Israel is "burning through its reserves of international support."

"When all this is over... International sympathy will have expired and Israel will be forced to exist in an even greater state of siege."

Will Israel Lose International Support for Its Campaign in Gaza?

Hamas and its primary rival Fatah, which runs the Palestinian Authority (PA) in the West Bank, have signed a declaration in Beijing pledging to form a government together. The agreement doesn't include any guarantees or outline a timeline.

The talks, which began on Sunday, included 14 Palestinian factions. Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi said that "an agreement has been reached on post-Gaza war governance and the establishment of a provisional national reconciliation government."

The agreement posits that Gaza will be under Palestinian control after the war. Hamas and Fatah have made several attempts at reconciliation since 2006, but all have failed. Mustafa Barghouti, secretary-general of the Palestinian National Initiative, said the war in Gaza has motivated the two sides to again work toward unity.

Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz slammed the agreement, saying that Palestinian Pres. Mahmoud Abbas was embracing Hamas. He added that "this won’t happen because Hamas's rule will be crushed, and Abbas will be watching Gaza from afar."

The accord comes as Gaza cease-fire negotiations continue. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told hostage families in the US on Tuesday that "The conditions [for a deal] are undoubtedly ripening. This is a good sign."

Reuters

Axios reported on Tuesday that Israel, the US, and the United Arab Emirates held a meeting last week to discuss Gaza's post-war governance, with the UAE proposing the deployment of an interim international commission to Gaza under the conditions that the PA undertakes reforms and Israel agrees to a political process based on the two-state solution.
