White House fears pause in fighting will let journalists see what’s been happening in Gaza – Pearls and Irritations

The White House in Washington DC under dark stormy clouds.

The Biggest Fear is the Narrative will be lost by 4 days of Transparency. Does the cease-fire mean Israel won’t control all movement in and out of Gaza? Will they let UN inspectors in? Will we see an increase in the propaganda war?

This is what Biden feared, according to Politico: That a ceasefire would enable the world to see the extent of the carnage in Gaza, paid for by US taxpayers. “And there was some concern in the administration about an unintended consequence of the pause: that it would allow journalists broader access to Gaza and the opportunity to further illuminate the devastation there and turn public opinion on Israel.”

Tucked away many paragraphs into this report is a sentence that is getting a lot of attention on social media today saying that according to Politico’s sources, there has been some resistance to the pause in fighting within the administration due to fears that it will allow journalists into Gaza to report on the devastation Israel has inflicted upon the enclave.
