Cracks in Israel-US relations as Netanyahu refuses two-state solution
Tensions between Israel and the US have tumbled onto the world stage.
On Thursday, White House national security adviser John Kirby said that the US would not stop working towards a two-state solution to the conflict.
“There will a post-conflict Gaza, no reoccupation of Gaza,” Kirby told reporters aboard Air Force One.
Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu defiantly responded in a press conference that Israel would continue “until complete victory” in Gaza.
Netanyahu opposed a two-state solution, saying Israel must have control over all land west of the River Jordan – which would include the territory of any future Palestinian state.
