    Being an American is fucking embarrassing. How is it? We got all this military power and we’re going to let our own puppet state push us around. Like if we’re going to be baddies, at least be THE baddies

    Can we bring the Palestinians here in exchange for all our politicians? Shit I’ll throw in casual trumpers and blue maga folk as well.

      Israel wholly owns the US. It would be humiliating to the Biden administration if they weren’t in on the deal. Upholding the military industrial complex is priority number one for every president in history. Literally nothing is more important.

      “We will never forget the images emerging from Rafah tonight. Human beings, including babies, were burned alive and torn apart. This genocide must end, it must end now,” said one group.

      We also need to hold our politicians accountable for not acting up against Netanyahu.

        Then why is no one calling out the congress responsible for it? Biden didn’t pass or fund this. He isn’t pushing back against it hard enough. But he’s not the one that passed it. Or threatened to campaign against him when he just delayed delivery. I don’t see anyone calling out mike Johnson.

              The white house runs the state department and the white house press briefings and directs the UN delegation

              Congress isn’t blameless but Biden holds a disproportionate amount of responsibility.

            Never implied he wasn’t. Only implied that the obsessive focus on him is suspicious and short-sighted if someone actually wanted it to improve things in gaza. He is a small part of the equation and the problem. Mike Johnson has already said that he will do everything it takes to continue the genocide in Gaza. That he and his House of Representatives is aiding in supplying directly.

              Congress did not force him to circumvent congress to sell Netanyahu weapons for genocide. Biden did that all by his lonesome, without his hands being tied in any way whatsoever. Biden’s administration does not have to abuse our veto at the UN to run interference for Netanyahu. And Joe Biden did not have to deny that a genocide is even happening in Gaza.

              Congress didn’t force him to do any of that.

                I never said he didn’t. I just said you all seem more focused at being mad at him than actually stopping it.
