Saw this today, and … well, I’m not going to be so forgiving to people suggesting to vote Third Party rather than vote for Biden. If Trump wants me to do something, and you want me to do that same something, that tells me you’re aligned with Trump.

    Man, there’s a bajillion angles to this. We’re talking global politics here.

    Israel under Netanyahu has said that it will extinguish Hamas even if the entire world turns against them. And you can go down many paths looking at what happens if the US abandons Israel.

    First, some facts.

    • Israel has not imposed sanctions on Russia.
    • Israel maintains diplomatic relations with Russia.
    • Israel has not backed Ukraine in the war.
    • Russian is the third most-widely spoken language in Israel
    • Israel has the third largest Russian-Speaking population outside of Russia and other post-Soviet states.
    • Israel took a neutral stance on the Crimea invasion.
    • Netanyahu and Putin have a particularly close relationship.

    Now, just think for a moment what Russia might do if the US were to end its special relationship with Israel? I’m sure that’s weighing on Biden’s mind as he navigates the waters of reining in Israel’s attack on Palestinians. Putin is looking for ways to erode American influence world-wide, and this might well be an own goal if we just blindly drop Israel like so many of these…ahem, ‘dissenters’ seem to want us to do.

    Besides. Trump says Israel should ‘finish the job’ in regards to the Palestinians so I’m not sure how the … person below you thinks Biden is to the right of Trump on this matter. Unless ‘the right’ means letting SOME Palestinians live, and ‘the left’ means ‘invade their countries, kill their leaders, and convert them to Christianity.’ I mean, it’s not like some rightwing shithead ever said anything like that, amirite? Lol.
