    Biden can stop the genocide but not only chooses not to at the risk of losing the election, but enables Israel to commit more violence and war crimes.

      What do you think Joe Biden should do to “stop the genocide”, and why do you think he has not taken those steps already?

        Withhold military and financial aid and not veto a ceasefire or vote against Palestinian statehood. Israel is committing it with US weapons, money and political cover.

        Maybe not send another BILLION dollars…? I know that’s an insane thing to even consider but that’s what I would recommend.

        Are you braindead?

          I think it’s important that you realize those payments are not just from the president’s cabinet but also Congress.

          I take no issue with blaming Joe Biden but I do take issue with the fact we seem to place so little responsibility at the feet of our congressman.

            They have plenty of blame. And Biden has recently pushed back MILDLY on Congress. But the whole situation in our gov is fucked.

        Hamas are irrelevant to the conversation. Biden isn’t sending them weapons or money, so he has no leverage over them, as opposed to Israel.
