Original Note:
He didn’t say Israel is "Heading towards strategic defeat," only that civilians are a strategic focal point when managing the war in Gaza. The statement expresses support for Israel and an understanding that "Hamas is deeply embedded in urban areas," which is challenging. https://www.defense.gov/News/Speeches/Speech/Article/3604755/a-time-for-american-leadership-remarks-by-secretary-of-defense-lloyd-j-austin-i/
