That is one long chain of complementary mistakes.

Experts in international law, the ICC, correctly blame Israel, not Biden.

The link you put does not excuse Biden. Why lie?

Meanwhile, back in reality:

The reason I say “naive” is that Biden persists in this mentality that Israel is just some poor victim surrounded by hostile Arab states and Israel hasn’t been a legit victim since… what? The 1972 Olympics?

Please study the Nakba, you're not just embarrassing yourself but whitewashing a history of genocide.

"Naive and outdated" that's one way to describe sending $30B in arms to a genocide. Others would call it "complicity in genocide". Like, experts in international law.

Been on lemmy.world for the last month or so you guys, I fucking hate it. Arguing with "we had to vote for Harris"ers until some vigilante mod decides my angry response to their support for genocide isn't "civil" enough.

Primarily because there’s not economic benefit in it for the ruling class.

Our history of perpetual war seems to disprove this

Saving stuff like this from the past year and a half in folders named "israel" and "us". Starting to feel like I should just merge them, since they're just the same thing. Jonathan Greenblatt from the "Anti-Defamation League" talking about the "TikTok problem", and 5 seconds later a bill to ban it is passed.
