"The first is the right to free speech and for people to peacefully assemble and make their voices heard. The second is the rule of law. Both must be upheld."

People that are peacefully assembling and making their voices heard are being corralled up, either being arrested, or being forced to disperse. So violation #1.

We then had armed Israeli supporters come and start bashing heads of unarmed Palestinian supporters. Violation #2.

But to be clear, Biden is not condemning the above violations, he's directing his comments at the Palestinian protesters.

Biden is literally one of the few Dems who can lose to Trump, and Bibi is showing him the way. Pathetic. “Israel First” is a losing strategy, plain and simple.

We've been told that Biden is only running because he has the best chance to win against Trump.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

How laughable is that? By every metric Bernie was poised to wipe the floor with Trump in both 2016 and 2020, and the establishment Dems stole the nomination from him to lose the general, then barely eek out a win riding the coattails of unavoidable disaster from the pandemic. This year the election is just being handed to republicans because Bibi is Biden’s master.

All Dems have to do to win is attack republicans on their staggering corruption, but they refuse to ever do so. Why might that be?

Biden faced harsh criticism from Republicans, who are seizing on party unity against perceived liberal university leaders -- and portraying themselves -- as staunch supporters of Israel -- to go after divided Democrats, to step up his response to recent events.

If you let Trump win, he and his supporters will eradicate Palestine while abandoning Ukraine.
