If it's not going to be Biden, then it will be someone else. Either a Republican or a Democrat.

Even someone who earlier looked promising, eg Fetterman is a staunch Israel supporter.

Because the problem is systematic. You can't just uproot the US-Israel nexus that's deeply entrenched in the US politics.

There too much money and votes in play to be both human and a politician.

Netanyahu is the only person that can stop it. And he isn't going to.

I mean Nerenyahu could stop this too. But sure, let’s blame Biden.

Cool. Who just agreed to ship five-hundred 500 lbs bombs and a brace of 2000 pound bombs, in addition to a number of F-15s?

Bibi is trying to retain power. Losing it means he's susceptible to prosecution. Same as Trump trying to regain power so he can pardon himself.

Stop blocking for bad behavior.

F-15s aren't showing up tomorrow and they're air superiority fighters. Maybe actually know some context.

And who’s dropping them?

Biden isn’t innocent, but stop ignoring the murderers.

Huh, I wasn't sure he was still alive. Haven't seen his name or thought of him for years. Cool that he's still going!

The man simply doesn’t lie. He’s been on the right side of history consistently.

I can't tell if you're joking or not

Can't tell if you've been paying attention or not.

Moore performs stunts in his documentaries, but he underscores problems.
