What would happen if they did order a ceasefire? Who would enforce this?

When US have Ukraine weapons to defend themselves, we were the good guys.
When US gives Israel the weapons to attack and airbomb Palestinians in daylight it puts US in a very bad light.
US should be the ones enforcing a cease fire. Where no side gets to airbomb each other.
Every life is valuable. Israelis or Palestinians.
The failure of US policy is to be the gatekeeper of world peace. We have the largest army by far. We spend an obscene amount of our taxes on defense.
Yet we failed to keep peace.
Israel is a strategic ally in the Middle East that also happens to have many high profile supporters in the US. There’s likely enormous pressure from within to do just about nothing and just let it play out.
Peace, unfortunately, is a conveniently flexible concept employed to conceal one’s motives and justify frivolous wars.
