The poll found 50% of Democrats approve of how Biden has navigated the conflict while 46% disapprove — and the two groups diverge substantially in their views of U.S. support for Israel. Biden’s support on the issue among Democrats is down slightly from August, as an AP-NORC poll conducted then found that 57% of Democrats approved of his handling of the conflict and 40% disapproved.

      Meh I use Tankies as a term for the “far right” of the left.

      Might not be the most accurate term but these Israel hating leftists are almost always Tankies. But the rest of the comment is pretty clear and I’m glad you were able to focus on something benign. Typical tankie.

          What is an “Israel hating leftist”

          A leftist that glosses over Hamas’ attack on the 7th

          I don’t care who you accept as human

              I’m sure hamas found retribution for Palestine in killing innocent civilians. I hope in 100 years when Israel exacts their revenge for the 7th, they’ll have some idiots defending them with claims of “dEcAdEs Of GeNoCiDaL” behavior.

                  So let me get this straight: every country has a blank check they can cash to justify violence because of history?

                  You’re not real. There’s no way 😂

        Benign, maybe in an irrelevant way? But certainly not benign by its content though, right?

        I just found it to be a strange usage because presumably the criticism being cast against Israel is for their judicious use of force against unarmed civilians, and as far as I know ‘tankie’ was originally used to describe people in support of the state’s judicious use of force against unarmed civilians.

        I would have thought the word would have been more appropriately used to describe Zionists in this situation, but I wouldn’t pretend to know.

          Hamas attacked innocent civilians on the 7th. Didn’t see any lefties coming out to denounce any of it
