givesomefucks,

We don’t even know if it’s happening…

The White House has neither confirmed nor denied Politico’s report, which came as Biden again conflated campus protests against Israel’s war on Gaza with antisemitism. Since Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu launched the U.S.-backed offensive in October, Biden has faced mounting pressure to cut off arms to the country and use his influence to end the bloodshed.

Israel famously complains about everything and always claims they’re the victim.

They might still be getting them on schedule, and just want it faster so they’re whining.

And it’s very important to point out this is just the sale of specific “smart bombs” that Israel isn’t even using for their genocide because they’re just blowing up everything. They don’t need accurate smart bombs like that, especially since those are designed to limit collateral damage.

The article clarified, but I’m disappointed in their clickbait headline.

Now that this news has leaked, senior administration officials must publicly confirm this policy shift," she said. “If President Biden is taking the overdue but necessary step to condition weapons sales in line with U.S. law and policy and to force changes in Israeli government strategy, he cannot leave his intentions open to miscommunication or spin from those, including Prime Minister Netanyahu, who are continuing this conflict for their own political benefit. The White House must leave no stone unturned in its effort to stop the Israeli government’s offensive on Rafah—the hundreds of thousands displaced there do not have more time.”

If he’s actually doing this slow walk as the most mild form of consequences ever, he at least needs to publicly say it.
