    you guys gotta give these administrations a break over palestine and israel. this middle east policy has been ingrained into american politics since the end of WWII. it’s really hard for one president to come in and undo shit that eisenhower and roosevelt engineered as a CENTURIES LONG STRATEGY. believe it or not, there are some big picture things at play here.

    disclaimer: i do not support israel and think that palestinians are being treated in an inhumane way.

      Biden did not need to circumvent congress twice to support Netanyahu.

      No one asked him to. No one would have been disappointed if he didn’t.
