Welcome to Thursday, May 16th, mates...

Israel is planning to escalate its military operations in northern Gaza, where 100,000 Palestinians have fled.

The Israeli military has evacuated Palestinian civilians from the north to the south, and vice versa, multiple times throughout the seven-month war with Hamas. Civilians have reported "terrifying explosions" throughout Gaza, making evacuation treacherous. 

The Biden administration intends to sell more than $1 billion in weapons and machinery to Israel, according to congressional aides, including new tactical vehicles and ammunition. 

How do you feel about the U.S. response?
