      He already restricted visas for extremist settlers in the west bank. Making all further aid dependent on curbing the fuckery in this area is probably the way to go. It’s pretty unlikely that the US can do more than delay strikes by Israel when it comes to further actions in Gaza, they don’t have nearly as much control over them as everyone makes it seem.

        I’ll tell that to that mother in Rafah who’s trying to scrape what’s left of her kid into a bucket, having gone there because Israel told her it was the safe place to evacuate to after she followed Israeli orders to evacuate to Khan Younis and was bombed there as well…

          Why would they do that? The UN is like 50 Muslim countries, pretty much all of them theocracratic dictatorships. They usually vote as a block against Israel which is pretty bs considering there is one jewish state with one voice.

              Assad killed like two million people in his own country, many of them with fkin nerve gas. Where are the people calling this a genocide? Where’s the condemnation by the Arab league? They don’t give a shit and they wouldn’t say a word if it was Egypt who was taking out hamas in Gaza right now.

                  Guy who gasses hundreds of thousands of his own people and bombs them with barrel bombs from helicopters = guy who happens to contribute to the death of 28 k people (at worst) because terrorists choose to hide behind their own women and children. Smartest lemming

        They do though. As well as essentially paying them to do it, they sit on the UN Security Council and veto everything raised against this genocide.

    There seems to be this thing where the mainstream media tries to appease anti-murder voters by insisting that Joe “I Am A Zionist” Biden is really trying hard to find a solution to this and he’ll get there eventually, but in the mean time his hands are tied and he has to keep picking up the tab for Israel. But like, really guys, any minute now he’s gonna stop because secretly he agrees with you that this is wrong. He just can’t stop now. Like, he could. He could just stop sending them money. But he can’t. But he will soon. But not now. Because he can’t.

      Doesn’t congress send the money? Also although I think Zionism is inherently flawed thinking, but you can be a zionist and not support genocide. Nothing about being a Zionist implies the state must grow or do anything in particular other than being a Jewish ethnostate.

      A two state solution was and is the only way there will be a modicum of peace, and no, it will not be fair.

          Don’t alter the headline. He bypasses Congress by not sending aid but rather by selling the weapons. Israel is paying for it, even if it’s wholesale prices on ammunition components.

              It’s literally not, like actually. Google it.

              That said, dude didn’t illegally bypass Congress, they gave the president that authority in the 70s and expanded upon it under bush. I don’t agree with it, I think he shouldn’t have done it and that it shouldn’t even be possible. It is absolutely something to legitimately critique Biden for, but it is not bypassing congress in some loophole thing.

                It literally is, like materially. My point wasnt that he is doing something illegal, my point is that he is aiding Israel by giving them bombs at discount prices.

        The existence of that ethnostate was built on the nakba and the continued subjugation of Palestinians and their Jewish allies.

        Want an ethnostate? Go take it from Germany. God knows they deserve it at least.

        Zionism requires the wiping of a culture and people to replace it with another. There is no form of Zionism which is not genocidal.

        Zionism needs a Nakba and an Apartheid state, otherwise it wouldn’t be Zionism. So no, being Zionist means in one way or another supporting genocide.

        Zionism in 2024 is the belief that nobody other than Ashkenazi Jews are allowed to live in Palestine. However you get to that point, well that’s just secularism! /s

    All for the camera of course. Behind the scenes he doesn’t give two craps about whatever Israel does.
