Let's not forget that US/Israeli relations were at an all-time low during Biden's presidency because he didn't want anything to do with Netanyahu.
Not saying the US response to all this hasn't sucked, but I'm pretty confident any other president the US has had the last 50 years would have been worse.
It's not your president. It's your country. You allowed this to happen over decades, not months or even years.
And in a race where the other candidate is firmly pro genocide... Yeah, I struggle to interpret this shit in good faith. Kindly fuck off.
Maybe hypothetical other presidents would have done all the same things, but Joe Biden has personally made active moves to support the genocide. “We sent them billions of dollars a year that built a war machine itching to be used” is an America problem. Biden’s proactive actions to arm them and defend them from consequences is a Biden problem.
And protest actions (and the general polling that’s a follow-on to activism not letting the issue fade away), is part of why Biden is slowly turning toward a harder and more humanitarian stance. None of this has ever been about choosing between two people for the next genocide response, it’s always about making him change course NOW.
So how do yall feel about the US building a floating harbor off Gaza to ship in humanitarian aide instead of being forced to air drop the aide by Israel’s noncompliance?
Criticizing Biden does not necessarily equate to supporting Trump. It is possible to objectively critique an individual while recognizing that they may be the preferable option available.
