It's incredible how every Islamic faction that's involved has been way more cautious and careful for this entire conflict than Israel. I really admire their restraint! Israel is trying to escalate things left and right, but every other faction is trying to keep things from blowing up.

If Biden doesn't jump on this then he wants Trump to win.

Israel has nukes and is itching to use them.

Standing by and watching a genocide take place isn't all that admirable in my opinion.

It looks like the Biden regime has already jumped on it. Apparently all it ever took was a phone call. The mass murderers have called off the genocide and are pulling out of Khan Younis.

Yeah but getting involved means being bombed to hell by NATO, so governments are not keen on that. Even indirect involvement like the Yemeni blockade effected in this. In case of Iran it might even spark a world war.

The Yemenis can hold their heads high.

US aren't merely standing by and watching, they are enabling it actively.

I mean the Houthis weren't, but there's only so much you can do when the US has two aircraft carriers and implications next to you.
