    Biden tried just slowing weapon shipments earlier on and Rs and some Ds rammed a bill through saying nope, no slowdowns on these shipments allowed.

      wow you just ignore that biden wanted to give them the weapons anyways. you see its a little thing called providing cover. Biden didn’t fight against it because he wanted to give isreal the weapons.

        That bill went through with a veto-proof majority of all Rs and enough Dems.

        Biden is a zionist, however, he’s also a politician who understands that the genocide was not and is not super favorable domestically. It’s also not a good look for the ceasefire negotiations to be as unsuccessful as they’ve been. If the opposition wasnt the orange turd this election could have easily gone R just like Reagan v Carter with Iranian hostage crisis.

          oh wow! a veto proof majority! its too bad biden controls the military and can just know you. not ship them. invoke leahy. etc.

          biden has no one to blame but himself for gaza. go read the article of the israel/gaza timelines. there was no need for whats happening to happen. biden just had to… not ship weapons. he had all the legal cover he could have possibly wanted if his goal was to end the genocide.

          It’s also not a good look for the ceasefire negotiations to be as unsuccessful as they’ve been

          lol. they have not even happened. bibi has 0 interest in a ceasefire. the biden admin knows this. if they don’t then we definitely need to get rid of them all.
