    You can be against US support for Israel while realizing Biden doesn’t call the shots for another goddamn nation and isn’t responsible for Israeli actions.

    Man the quality of this anti-Biden shit is getting low here.

      Of course Biden isn’t directly responsible, but you should look at how much of Isreal’s military supplies, including bombs, come from the US.

        As long as Iran, Hezbollah, Hamas, etc., continue to suggest that Israel should be wiped off the map (not to mention act accordingly) then America will continue supplying Israel with the necessary tools to defend themselves against militant threats. Hamas and Hezbollah have fired missiles nonstop at heavily populated Isreali cities, and the only thing stopping massive destruction and loss of life to our Isreali allies are iron dome missile defense systems that the US has spent >$3,000,000,000 funding. If not for the US, we would be counting bodies in the hundreds of thousands across both Israel and Palestine.

        On top of that, all of this ignores the fact that there was YET ANOTHER viable ceasefire agreement that was rejected by Hamas today. At what point do we stop blaming the US for all of the world’s problems? The only people with the agency to stop the current fighting in Gaza are Hamas and Netenyahu’s government, and you all damn well know that.

      You can recognise Biden isn’t in charge of Israel but also realise he directly arms them, aids them, and shields them from the UN.

      Retracting US support is all it would take for the world to step in and hold Israel accountable, he refuses to do that, therefore he is also responsible for the genocide being committed.

      All Biden has to do is less than he is, but instead he goes out of his way to support Israel.
