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."

Meanwhile, Paris 2024 officials have filed a complaint with police over possible antisemitic acts during the men's soccer game between Israel and Paraguay on Saturday, which featured pro-Palestine chants and banners — and boos for the Israeli national anthem.

In another related development over the weekend, AFP reported that France's anti-cybercrime officers are working to remove personal information of members of the Israeli Olympic Team that hacker group Zeus published on Friday.

The Olympic Committee of Israel thanked French and Israeli authorities for their "tireless" work to ensure the safety of the Israeli delegation in a statement on Monday, stressing that their team will not be intimidated by any threats.

Israeli athletes have been placed under around-the-clock protection during the Games, with elite tactical units escorting them to and from events. At the 1972 Munich Games, Palestinian attackers killed 11 Israeli athletes and a German police officer.
