    Alternatively, those of us (leftists, not a tankie) that recognize this conflict has been raging since 1948 and neither republican nor democrat would have ended it.

      It was not about ending it, but about financing and actively enabling it…

      Israel would have run out of bombs 20000+ dead children ago if Biden would have wanted to let those children live.

      Biden deserves to spend the rest of his days in prison. Trump does as well.

        That’s the fatal flaw in the logic though. The democrats only want to uphold the status quo, they don’t care about regular americans, they just pretend to. If they actually cared, they would have run Bernie when they had the chance.

        The US has been funding/providing military aid to Israel throughout the 70’s, 80’s, 90’s and now. All presidents throughout this time are complicit, including your favourites.

          Funding a genocide while straight faced lying about it has completely destroyed America’s global reputation. Even George Bush might not have been as damaging to the “rules based order” as the Democrats were this time around

          This was not a status quo moment. Democrats went more mask off than any Republican in history.

      not a tankie

      …cool? So glad you have an opinion about the 1956 Hungarian revolution and whether the Soviets sending in tanks to crush it was a reasonable reaction… not sure how that qualifies your opinion though.
