There's nowhere for the million people to evacuate to or go.  Hopefully Israel doesn't use their evacuation order as an excuse to start indiscriminately killing civilians. 

As war often is, this is a situation where nobody is going to 'win'.

Welp who would have thought

Maybe I missed it, and it likely wouldn’t have much of an impact, but I find it curious that Biden hasn’t publicly/ formally demanded the release of the 14+ Americans being held by Hamas….

He has done that and the Sec of State and Sec of Defense have both demanded the same repeatedly.

Thanks - I guess I missed it.  Saw his comments from meeting with the 14 families, but didn’t see anything regarding this.

Or else, what?

There are numerous options available, but out of all of them standing idly by while US citizens are abducted is just about last on the list.  Only followed by paying ransom, which this administration has shown willingness to do.
