Do you seriously believe that Biden/Harris was supporting a genocide?

[-] ketseki@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

Yes, there is a genocide happening, and yes USA made ordnance and funding is contributing to it.

Realistically, Bibi will do whatever he wants. There's too much political influence in the US from Israel for any president to withhold Irsaeli aid or munitions. The president cannot withhold congressional funding so it is up to congress to stop financing a genocide. The best Biden could do is pressure his own party to stop funding, pressure Bibi into a ceasefire, and provide emergency aid to genocide victims. To his credit, Biden and his administration has been doing all 3, but bully pulpit only has so much influence during an election year, even less so on foreign powers. The consequence of political pressure on Israel is that their PACs funded the GOP more heavily, and allowed them more advantage during our election.
