American diplomats have delivered a "stark warning" to the Joe Biden administration about "growing anger against the United States in the Arab world." This was reported by CNN with reference to a telegram received by the editorial board.
In it, the diplomats write that because of Washington's support for Israel's military campaign in Gaza, the United States is "losing Arab society for a generation."
"We are losing badly in terms of messaging," the cable sent on Wednesday from the US Embassy in Oman said, citing conversations with "a wide range of trusted and sober-minded contacts."
Active US support for Israel's actions is seen as "material and moral guilt for what they consider possible war crimes."
And the embassy in Cairo passed on to the White House a comment by an Egyptian state newspaper that "President Biden's cruelty and disregard for Palestinians has surpassed all previous US presidents."
It is reported that there is growing concern within the administration about US support for Israel, and that Biden is facing "growing frustration at home."
CNN recalls that at a recent summit with State Department Secretary Anthony Blinken, Arab leaders called for an immediate ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, and the Secretary of State reiterated the US disagreement, saying that this would give Hamas time to regroup and launch a new attack on Israel.
