Biden is covering himself saying Israel should use a targeted response against Hamas and not just indiscriminate bombings of civilians, but those words probably don't mean much to the civilians who are killed, injured, and lose loved ones to Israeli actions of war.

They mean even less when it's just a quote and nothing something that could alter the amount of money he's gonna blindly send to them. It's basically just PR since there's no real enforcement attached to it.
