No US president in history, from either party, has been this hands-off with Israel. Period.
And I didn’t say war, I said situation, as in the nonstop spiraling of events, without as much as a waiver in US support: diplomatically, militarily, or financially.
The fact that you don’t know that, shows it’s not me who is misinformed.
No one said it was Trump. The US has been giving financial aid to Israel for over 50 years. You are misinformed because you believe Trump will fix it. News flash he was already president and he didn’t fix shit.
…what? You just said Abraham accords are the reason for this conflict… That’s the same as saying Trump is to blame…
And just because I’m rightfully assigning blame to Biden, the current sitting US president and self-proclaimed biggest support of Israel, doesn’t mean I support Trump.
Feel free to creep on all of my comment history, my political leanings should be pretty self-evident.
Don’t you feel gross telling people that if they say Biden’s policies have allowed the situation to get out of control, it means they support Trump?
I mean, you do understand that ultimately Israel is our client state and entirely dependent upon our aid for their survival, right?
They literally could not be prosecuting this war if we stopped shipping them weapons, and they would never have attacked Iran if we didn’t have our CSG and accompanying missile destroyers sitting in between them.
Point the rest of us to where anyone in this thread said that Trump’s actions started the Israel conflict rather than just escalating what was already going on.
Bruh. You seem to have not read my comment or the one you just quoted. The quote is not claiming that Trump started the conflict. That quote is stating that he escalated it. Try again, but make sure you look up the difference between “start” and “escalate” before you do.
Do you not understand that you cited only two events, and both of them occurred during the Trump administration…?
I’m actually at a loss for words, because if you don’t grasp how your comment is explicitly stating Trump is to blame, I don’t know what else to tell you.
I’m not informed…?

Maybe you are under informed. The Abraham Accords and the moving of the US embassy were escalations in this conflict.
Wait, so you’re saying that US culpability in this conflict starts, and ends, with the Trump administration…?
Again, I don’t think it’s me who’s under informed on this issue…

Me: post factual events
You:
Me: Who are you arguing with here? It isn’t me.
I said they were escalations in the conflict
Not saying that the situation is good.
Only one candidate is going to make this worse for Palestine, as a political favor. Recognition of the annexed West Bank.

Did I call you a Trump voter?
Is Biden running for reelection?
So you honestly think that Israel thinks that they’re the client state?
AIPAC owns the majority of the House and Senate.
Even if Biden stopped aid, there’s enough votes to override the veto.
Think critically and not with regurgitated talking points.
Here’s an article from 12 years ago that is still relevant:

No, you just did whataboutism.
Which is why I separated my other commentary, and addressed it in general, and not directly at you.
Because while it’s related to your comment, you hadn’t crossed that bridge yet, but there’s no shortage of that in these comments, read up and down.
Israel knows their client state, including the IDF and political leadership. Do you even read Israeli newspapers regularly?
I’m well aware of AIPAC, and the extent of their lobbying and influence operations.
None of that has anything to do with what I’ve been talking about.
Point the rest of us to where anyone in this thread said that Trump’s actions started the Israel conflict rather than just escalating what was already going on.
It’s like three or four comments up, did you even look?
Or does your extensive knowledge of Middle Eastern history not extend back that far?
In case you’re still confused, both of those actions were taken by the Trump administration, and it was the sole content of that comment.

Dude, we’re talking about whether Biden is to blame. Please keep up.
