Two top Democrats urge Biden to press Netanyahu to change course in Gaza: HuffPost 

US Senators Elizabeth Warren and Brian Schatz have sent a letter to Secretary of State Antony Blinken calling on the Biden administration to pressure Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to change course and promote a Palestinian state.

The letter comes after Netanyahu has repeatedly opposed the creation of a Palestinian state as a part of a long-term solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

“We have serious concerns that the Netanyahu government’s public and repeated rejection of a two-state solution” — the long-envisioned plan for Israeli and Palestinian states to live side-by-side — “fundamentally threatens regional security and undermines any path to a durable peace,” the senators wrote in the letter, obtained by the Huffington Post.
