Biden slams the Palestinian genocide as "a little too much".
Judge a man by his actions, not by his words.
I hope the ICJ takes the US, UK, Germany and other genocide enablers to the trial too.
Don't forget Canada.
Hmm, is it me who's wrong about the facts on the ground and the application of international law?
No, it is Canada who is has gone genocidal!
“There are a lot of innocent people who are in trouble and dying,” the president said in a session with reporters.
Gee, then maybe you shouldn't have cut funding to the biggest single relief agency in the area just because Israel told you to (archive part 1, part 2), you fucking clod
e; Six pages of evidence (archive) about 12 people in an organization of 13000 that we probably didn't even see (archive) and a bunch of disinformation from Israeli mouthpieces was all it took
Biden is SO CRITICAL of Israel that he's ready to send them BILLIONS more dollars without Congressional Approval! THAT will teach Israel to STOP!
Yeha, he's just making sure he wins the next elections. He knows this is one of the reasons why people won't vote for him. The fact he is keeping it this tame just shows he really doesn't want to affect his relations with Israel. So, after he wins, everything will stay the same way.
Next he will tell them to knock it off. That will show them for sure.
“over the top” is a bit tame in my opinion. i would frankly go as far as to say what they’re doing is “not cool”, maybe even “uncalled for”
Stop talking and pull the aid. Nothing Biden says on the subject matters while he's still sending them aid.
I suppose a bowling ball is perhaps sharper than a soggy mattress -_-
*finger wagging strengthens, stern look intensifies*
*wink* *nod* [keeps sending Israel bombs to use against civilians in Gaza]
Now that his criticism is nice and sharp, maybe he can waggle that around in a threatening manner.
If stern looks killed, Bibi would still be absolutelly fine right now.
If Bibi keeps going like this, he might get grounded, or worse without dessert!
In the same statement, he also calls El-Sisi president of Mexico. This comes also after he said that Hamas' response to the deal was "over the top" two days ago. Not sure if what he even said today has any bearing at all considering it's safe to assume that he doesn't know which country is which. What's ironic is that just before that he said "my memory is good".
Are we continuing on the series for Biden's campaign ads?
"You all thought he was supporting genocide but look he is slapping Israel's wrist! There you go, now you can vote for him with a clear conscience"
Well Americans, prepare for Isreal to interfere with your elections.
They can get in line
I think it was the great philosopher Eric Cartman who said it best
“You people who are for the war, you need the protesters. Because they make the country look like it's made of sane, caring individuals. And you people who are anti-war, you need these flag-wavers, because, if our whole country was made up of nothing but soft pussy protesters, we'd get taken down in a second. That's why the founding fathers decided we should have both. It's called "having your cake and eating it too."
Don’t get me wrong, I am definitely a soft pussy protestor, but Biden is clearly having his cake and eating it too.
- Provides political, military, and economic support for Israel after they were attacked horrifically. Refuses to set any limits or conditions upon said support
- Gets taken for a ride by the hardline zealots who see this as their best chance to crush Gaza completely, and already have high level government and cabinet ministers attending & hosting talks to annex Gaza in part or completely
- Cannot undo what he has done in the name of geopolitics, increasingly is getting hammered by Muslim voters in the US at large, and voters across the spectrum who sympathize with the Palestinian civilians, and a growing rebellion within his own party
There was a moral imperative in 1948 & 1967 to support Israel against outside aggression who openly stated they wanted to end Israel. There’s now a moral imperative to protect Gazans and their land as was agreed to in Oslo II.
Enjoy your mess Joe, you sleepwalked into this one, crisis by crisis by believing Bibi unconditionally until very recently. Because now Egypt is getting testy:
Netanyahu’s words have also alarmed Egypt which has said that any ground operation in the Rafah area or mass displacement across the border would undermine its 40-year-old peace treaty with Israel. The mostly sealed Gaza-Egypt border is also the main entry point for humanitarian aid.
That’s a big fucking issue, if Egypt is throwing that language around I doubt Jordan is far behind them. I’ll say it again, is the alliance with Israel worth it, if it jeopardizes US relations with literally every other nation in the gulf?
There was a moral imperative to protect Israel when it was massacring and ethnically cleansing 750,000 Palestinians from their land in 1948? No. There was and continues to be a moral imperative to do everything in order to end the existence of the Zionist entity.
Wow he said a slightly negative sentence about the terrorists he promised to limitlessly fund that genocides brown people. If anybody was wondering why he's unpopular it's this shit.
