And now

President Biden told the Israeli leader that airstrikes that killed aid workers were “unacceptable” and appeared to condition future support on how Israel changes course. https://archive.ph/t5tIi

Meanwhile the alternative

The whole "Biden is bad because Israel" line is so absurd compared to Trump that it really must be Russian propaganda.

  • 404 error

  • A pier Israel will control. The same country that's not letting enough food in and has a habit of blowing up food trucks.

  • White House stopped short of directly mentioning weapons or financial aid.

At this point the only acceptable thing is to actually stop any aid other than food. And to demand that food be let in or start sanctions up to and including removing the advanced weapons they've been given.

Political posturing with no action. He tells them no don't do it! Then sells them weapons and does actually nothing. And he only called for a ceasefire now that 7 white people have died. 30k+ Palestinians and nothing. Non white blood must be that cheap.

The date of the ceasefire service was March 1st. Congress controls arms trade. And again, this is the alternative, mister Putin:

Trump will not only give Israel MORE weapons and NOT call for cease fires but will probably also send US troops. nobody's dumb enough to think they're "the same"

Will he though? He's a great supporter of israel but he's been the only president not to start a new conflict in the past decade.

Also what about all the times Biden side stepped congress and gave israel aid and weapons? Here's one example: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/white-house/biden-administration-sidesteps-congress-arms-sale-israel-rcna131661

Biden has helped commit a genocide. I'll take someone who hasn't even if he will later. The person who did the action vs the person who hasn't are not equal. On what earth would I be okay again with someone who committed genocide?
