    How is this anything other than PR? Biden has all the power to force a ceasefire. An arms embargo and threatening of sanctions would stop the genocide today.

      Politics.

      If Biden does the right thing Trump gains a new megaphone. BIDEN ABANDONED ISRAEL, Yada Yada Yada.

      By their current cold calculus the momentum Trump could gain isn’t outweighed by what Harris stands to gain from it.

      It’s evil. But that’s how they think. The dead are just numbers to them.

        Also AIPAC would divert all of their money to the Republican party. They already have the NRA they don’t need AIPAC money

        It sucks but we’re essentially living under Mafia rule

          AIPAC already has diverted all their money to republicans. They took out Cori Bush in favor of a candidate who may as well be a republican

          AIPAC needs to be declared a foreign lobby group and banned

      Why not ask Bernie? Seems you know more than him.

      Also since Bernie directly supports those folks you criticize why not ask him why he supports genocide or ask him specifically what actions he’s taking to stop it?

      How is your BS anything other than PR as well?
