    An arms embargo in some form is literally the only leverage the US has that could change Netanyahu’s mind, at this stage. Personally, I don’t think Kamala has the guts for it.

      For a full on embargo?

      Almost definitely not

      But they can limit it to just missile defense and such.

      That’s not a full weapon embargo, but it’s an embargo on the worst items and frankly if they do t get that shit from us, their only option is China, and China would know that and charge them out the ass for anything. Which means they get less than everything.

      Shit is rarely black or white. But with Biden they had a blank check, anything they wanted and Biden went around Congress for an arm’s “sale” already. Which frankly is a straight up war crime and violates US and international law, but it looks like some people are above the law despite what Biden said.
