    I think that drawing back support for Israel is far more complicated than you folks realize.

    But maybe you all have political science degrees and just don’t feel like explaining your reasoning? I just know enough to know that is a sticky situation and isn’t just as easy as canceling a Netflix subscription or something like many seem to think it is

      If Ronald fucking Reagan was able to figure out how to withhold aid to Israel to get them to withdraw from Beirut and Lebanon, I’m sure Biden can. Reagan also allowed 21 UN resolutions against Israel. How utterly embarrassing it must be to be worse than Reagan on anything. I guess all they have to do is say “it’s a complicated issue” ad nauseam until you actually believe nothing can be done about actively arming a genocide.

        There’s a difference in saying “it probably is more complicated than you realize” and “just shut up and accept genocide” but thanks for turning the conversation into this

          Sorry I’m not going to “but he’s just a widdle guy and it’s complicated” when Biden sent over another $1 Billion in arms to Israel today. If trump was funding this genocide right now, you’d be acting differently.

            Probably because trump would be wholeheartedly fueling the fucking fire. You know, like what’s going to end up happening if people fuck around leading up to this November

                Yes Biden, noted Lemmy user.

                When trump nukes Palestine at least you’ll feel great about “supporting” it with your absurd Russian roulette tactics

                  The whole point of this imperialist project is to take something valuable from someone else. Why the hell would trump nuke the valuable waterfront property which Jared Kushner (and honestly probably trump himself) wants to buy as well as negatively impact the entire region for the rest of human life on earth? Do you have to escalate to near impossibilities to seem worse than what biden is currently doing? Half a million Palestinians are starving due to manufactured famine and you’d want that trajectory to continue because in a future they won’t be alive for, you would speculate they have it worse. Do you honestly care about their lives or are you using them for political leverage for your own sake?

                  If you don’t want the threat of another trump presidency, it’s time for you to start joining others to urge biden to reverse course, because you won’t be able to convince me that supporting genocide is a single issue that can be overlooked.
