    While half of Americans think Israel is going too far, only 20% think that America is going too far in their ME strategy

    https://news.gallup.com/poll/548084/americans-divided-involvement-middle-east.aspx

    80% either think the current policy is either “the right amount” or “not enough”

    What Biden is doing is "80% of my voters agree I should continue supporting Israel so I’ll keep supporting Israel but begin floating conditioning it or cutting it off to try and placate the other 20% and also to lay the groundwork for maybe turning this into a party line issue so I don’t lose the "right amount " voters who can be convinced to still vote for me if they see the “not enough” voters as too dangerous on other issues to vote with.
