Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Manson manipulated people into doing his bidding to foment the larger race war "Helter Skelter", Bibi requires no such manipulation and, in fact, is working in direct opposition to US interests.
That in reply to your claim that Biden is not participating in the genocide. All of these actions are in direct interest of us interests, if they were not, Biden has the power to stop it. The exact same way that Reagan did in the exact same way that Thatcher did in 1982. In fact, Biden providing funding and weapons for a nuclear capable nation to commit genocide is a violation of the Symington Amendment.
Biden has ZERO power to stop it because Bibi's genocide is not dependent on anyone elses participation. It's an engagement by Israel and Israel alone.
Biden could cut off support tomorrow and demand a cease fire, Bibi would ignore him.
The only way to stop Bibi would be to remove him and that is not going to happen, not by the United States.
Sounds hyperbolic to me, but we will never know because the self proclaimed Zionist that's taken more AIPAC money than any other politician by a wide margin wont do it.
We do know because of statements Bibi has made:

If we were serious about getting Israel's attention, we would cut off all funding and aid, recognize a Palestinian state, and break Israel's illegal blockade on Gaza.
Which we'll never do.
