While this resolution isn’t going to have the impact that the people of Gaza so desperately need, it’s still a significant win. The US was forced to back down on some of its demands. It was forced to resort to arguing that the resolution does not mean what it plainly says, specifically that the issue of a ceasefire and that of the hostages in Gaza are two separate issues. They are also claiming it is non-binding, which, as I describe, is true for some parts but not for others.
