    Arabs are basically second-class citizens in Israel: https://www.jta.org/2016/04/12/israel/4-ways-jews-and-arabs-live-apart-in-israeli-society

    “aid into the region is increasing” are you counting from when the US pulled funding based on israel’s claims (without a shred of evidence)? The war strategy is becoming more precise in that they tell Palestinians exactly where to gather so they can be bombed in a precise location. How is biden pressuring israel when he pushes so hard to get more billions of dollars into their hands? Your idea of pressure is very different from, well, I guess anyone living in reality.

    I know you’re trying to invoke the “slippery slope” fallacy, but just one look at a map showing israel’s constantly expanding borders should make it obvious to anyone that this “slippery slope” is not a fallacy, but real. After israel completes their obvious mission of complete ethnic cleansing, you’ll be shrugging your shoulders and probably saying something like “it’s regrettable, but that’s all in the past, we’ll do better in the future”.

    Yeah, trump is bad, but biden is not any better on this specific and important issue. You know how you get trump re-elected? By being stubborn and ignoring voters. There is a pretty important bloc of Arab-American voters in Michigan (you know, the state Hillary lost in 2016) that have some pretty strong opinions on this matter.

    War with Iran is inevitable because that’s what israel wants: total domination of the Middle East. Ever wonder why countries like Iraq, Syria, Libya, and others were toppled with great help (or direct action) from the US? All enemies of israel get destroyed and it’s no mere coincidence. War with Iran is inevitable and, like the map of israel’s ever-expanding bordering, anyone paying even a bit of attention can see this obvious trend.
