The US president has made such claims before, but Israel has pressed on with its genocidal war with full US backing.<\/p>\n
United States President Donald Trump has suggested that Israel\u2019s war on Gaza<\/a> should end, as international outrage grows over the horrific atrocities committed: daily civilian massacres, killings of journalists and medics, and Israeli-induced famine<\/a> in the besieged and bombarded Palestinian enclave.<\/p>\n \u201cI think within the next two to three weeks, you\u2019re going to have pretty good, conclusive ending,\u201d Trump told reporters on Monday.<\/p>\n The US president has previously promised an end to the war with his trademark bombast, but his statements have not materialised into a ceasefire or even the free flow of humanitarian aid to a Palestinian population suffering under a punishing Israeli blockade.<\/p>\n The Trump administration has supplied Israel with billions of dollars in weapons and rejected international efforts to recognise a Palestinian state.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s got to get over with because between the hunger and all of the other problems \u2013 worse than hunger, death, pure death \u2013 people [are] being killed,\u201d Trump said.<\/p>\n In February, Trump suggested removing all Palestinians from Gaza<\/a> \u2013 a plan that would amount to ethnic cleansing, a crime against humanity.<\/p>\n
