Better late than never? What a joke. Why has the US allowed it's weaponry be used in a manner that doesn't further it's strategic interests? The US should have said this before Isreal foolishly screwed the pooch in Gaza.
To the foolish that said Bibi had no choice...to the contrary...he could have chosen a path that "worked". By the IDF's own admission, their activities have failed to annihilate Hamas.
US Warns Israel

The Biden administration has given Israel 30 days to expand humanitarian aid to Gaza or risk access to US military aid, a recent letter reveals. The ultimatum marks the strongest language from the White House toward Israel since the start of the Israel-Hamas war.
The US says Israel interrupted close to 90% of humanitarian aid movements last month between northern and southern Gaza as part of its campaign to isolate Hamas militants in the north. Israel has also issued evacuation orders to much of northern Gaza, where about 400,000 Palestinians are based. The US is calling for Israel to ensure passage of at least 350 humanitarian aid trucks per day into the territory.
The letter—signed by Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin—comes as Israel reportedly faces a shortage of interceptor missiles following Iranian airstrikes this month. US troops began arriving in Israel yesterday, part of a deployment trained to operate a US antimissile defense system.
