    It’s not his fault alone, but he’s a very strong supporter of Israel and is a major reason the situation became as bad as it is now. The POTUS can basically veto any Israeli policy or action involving Palestine, because even if we set aside the aid Israel just can’t afford to lose the veto protection at the UN.

      Every single US president has been a vocal ally of Israel. Joe Biden is literally doing nothing different than any of his predecessors including Trump.

        Every single US president has been a vocal ally of Israel.

        And now they’re committing genocide. The situation has changed.

            • Yes 0.004% of the population of all Palestinians are dead.

              You understand genocide means wiping out a population, right?

              Is it the most incompetent genocide ever?

              Please explain: surely Israel has the weaponry and capability right now to destroy every structure in Gaza City in about twenty minutes, why aren’t they?

              If it’s genocide, why are the daily death tolls trending downward? They should be going up, if it’s genocide, they still have 99.996% of the way to go.

              Not much has changed about the intent and none of you were screaming about the innocent Palestinians killed before things escalated.

              Regardless, if y’all fuck around and elect Trump under the guide of myopic “principles”, you’ll see a lot more Palestinian children killed in the headlines. Somehow it will be democrats’ fault, you’ll scream. If nothing else you will claim they didn’t “earn your vote.”

              A racist immoral dictator will have control of your country and the one thing you could’ve done was refused. But of course no one will be able to blame you without some weird justification coming out of your mouth, because you have “principles”

                You can’t defend Biden’s support for Netanyahu’s genocide, so you accuse anyone who disagrees with it of wanting Trump to win.

                I thought you said you wouldn’t reply to me again.

                  I can’t keep track of those of you who don’t care what your actions result in. Unfortunately there are a lot of you, which is precisely my concern.

        He’s going so far as to bypass Congress to give them more weapons. Reagan handled the 1982 war better, fucking Reagan.

        Reagan made Israel stop bombing Lebanon. He just said “but you’re doing a holocaust” and they stopped.

          Pro-genocide centrists really hate hearing that Biden is to the right of Ronald Reagan on the issue of genocide.

          I mean, they love that he is to the right of Reagan on this. They just don’t like hearing it.

            It’s so fucking pathetic how Biden wants Bibi to respect him and Bibi’s whole electoral strategy is “fuck the democrats”. It’s the most cuck shit.

            I wouldn’t be surprised if Bibi is cranking up the overtness of the genocide because he knows it’ll hurt Biden but Biden is mentally incapable of telling Bibi to stop.
