If Biden disagreed with the decision to move the embassy to Jerusalem - why didn't he move it back to Tel Aviv?

Everything else you listed has no bearing on added support for Israel. Also: Israel oppresses Muslims harsher than anything Trump has proposed, and they actively court evangelicals in the US.

Has Biden done anything to discourage that?

Roe v Wade, Energy policy, SCOTUS ... it's irrelevant when compared to supporting genocide.

What, exactly, will Trump do differently from Biden when it comes to the US-supported genocide? More weapons? More money? More political cover?

Consider: As long as Biden is president Dems aren't going to get behind stopping the genocide.

So no. When it comes to stopping Israel's genocide: Trump is an improvement because then at least maybe there will be some change from the Democrats.

I'm not apathetic - I'm realistically describing the situation.

Why do conservatives insist on making the left look so cool?

Thing is: There's plenty Hamas & related groups did on Oct 7th to enrage a population - no exaggeration is necessary.

However, there ISN'T enough to justify a genocide ... especially since Israelis have been torturing Palestinians for decades.

Israel needs to de-humanize the locals to the point where the population can justify an ethnic cleansing. Hence: Ridiculous accusations of using breasts as foot-balls and mass rape.

"Israel offered an evolving account of the incident as the day progressed."

Awesome way to say: Making up shit and seeing what sticks

Honest question from an ignorant 'Murican, with no context about what this controversy is about:

To a Hindu, would naming the lion 'Akbar' kinda be like naming an elephant 'Hitler' in Israel?

Or is this all just a religious/ cultural thing that makes no sense to outsiders such as myself?

Don't mess with librarians. They look mousey ... but they take their jobs really seriously and will fuck your shit up.

Better than conservative political cartoons.

Wasn't there a story the other day claiming that Israel expected the US to pay for these camps?

Has that been debunked yet?

Any increase I've experienced in my pay has been completely surpassed by healthcare bills and inflation.
