US President Joe Biden strongly defended Israel on Monday, saying Israeli forces are not committing genocide in their military campaign against Hamas militants in Gaza.

“What’s happening in Gaza is not genocide. We reject that,” Biden said at a Jewish American Heritage Month event at the White House.

I can’t tell if he’s pandering or trying to lose the election

    Trump is worse but that doesn’t mean you can’t criticize this piece of shit.

    Trump says the quiet parts out loud. That’s what ultimately makes him “worse”. While Biden’s handlers give him the PC

    Um, Actually its not a real genocide because it didn’t occur in the genocide region of Auschwitz,

    Trump’s out there saying

    Israel is killing all the terrorists and that’s good aktuly and we should be more like them.

    But get down to the policies at hand and there’s no daylight between them.

    So much of this election boils down to liberals being forced to face the nightmarish specter of modern American policy even from within their blue state enclaves. With Biden, they can pretend its all being done for good reasons and with a respectable veneer of Rules Based Internationalism. With Trump, they’re forced to watch a guy fuck the rest of the planet with the lights on, while his backers whoop and cheer and siege hail on national television.

    But it boils down to optics. Whether we’re gearing up to bomb Iran, whether we’re buy Xinjiang textiles with one hand while wagging a finger at Beijing with the other, whether we’re giving Exxon subsidies to “research hydrogen alternatives” or just cutting them blank checks to drill baby drill, whether we’re holding kids in cages on the border under a rogue Republican governor or a fascist Republican president, its all the same fucking policies.
