The US is funding and providing the weapons to kill Palestinians, resources Biden can withhold if he chooses to. Biden may not be pulling the trigger any more than Netanyahu is, but he is responsible for their deaths, and should be held accountable
Congress controls foreign aid. It’s usually bundled such that it’s part of a larger funding bill. There’s very little Biden can do without opening a can of worms.
That is incorrect the foreign military financing program authorizes the president to finance procurement of defense articles and services for foreign countries and international organizations. Israel’s $11 million per day welfare check and the arms they are provided is at the purview of the president. It’s the exact same tactic that Ronald Reagan used in 1982 to stop Israel carpet bombing Lebanon. He threatened to pull back all monetary and weapons aid from the US, the bombing stopped.
Congress only controls foreign aid when it’s initially approved. After it’s approved, it’s at the president’s discretion if that funding gets cut
