How is Israel supposed to just go after and kill Hamas fighters when they are in civilian clothes, hiding in hospitals and in vast networks of tunnels when using the women and children as shields? It is Hamas that is, for the most part, preventing food aid and medical supplies from getting in or stealing them when they do.
Remember the purpose of Hamas is to wipe out Israel and started this war with their murder, rape and burning on Oct 9th.
Biden has the entire time criticized Netanyahu for being too aggressive with too many civilian deaths, but Hamas fighters are not in any uniform, so you can not tell who are the fighters vs civilians who, on the whole, reject Hamas. Secty of State Blinken has been in the region trying to negotiate every few weeks, but it is Hamas that refuses a pause even with the release of a thousand of Hamas prisoners.
Biden trying to get Netanyahu to agree to a 2-state solution has been rejected both by Israel and Hamas. That, in my view, is the only long-term solution.
Now Biden is delaying some arms shipments; on the other hand, Israel needs and we should provide defensive weapons. Hamas just killed 3 Israeli fighters on Sunday by launching missiles into Israel. Hamas wants war, as does Israel, since it can no longer risk another attack and killing by Hamas.
It is a terribly complex situation, but it's not just "stop killing mothers and children." It is far more complicated than simplistic solutions.
Even more silly is the Defund Univ investments student protests. How does defunding Univ endowment investments in a company accomplish anything? If a Univ sells stock investments another buyer buys from them. It does nothing to hurt the targeted company unless it's an IPO, which, of course, Univ, don't deal in but typically are very conservative and have a fiduciary obligation to invest to benefit the university by wise investments, not what students want - that will not hurt the company anyway.
