The Biden administration has told key lawmakers it is sending a new package of more than $1 billion in arms and ammunition to Israel, three congressional aides said Tuesday.
It’s the first arms shipment to Israel to be announced by the administration since it put another arms transfer — consisting of 3,500 bombs — on hold this month. The administration has said it paused that earlier transfer to keep Israel from using the bombs in its growing offensive in the crowded southern Gaza city of Rafah.
Which is why so many people simply cannot put their name in support of Biden and AIPAC democrats.
There’s pragmatic politics and then there’s supporting actual genocide. For many people that line is something they just won’t ever compromise on because it’s so unequivocally immoral, there’s no justification to actively support it.
Personally if he doesn’t reverse course there’s no way I’m voting for this. I’ve lived through one Trump presidency, I’ll do it again if I have to and find other ways to resist.
If Democrats can’t do better than genocide they can’t demand my vote.
What a completely foolish take. “I won’t vote for Biden, I’ll just vote for the guy who wants to be a dictator and who cares even less about Palestine”
Russian troll or a completely deluded and/or privileged person who “lived through one Trump presidency”.
I can’t begin to stress how completely, off the rails, crayon eating levels of stupidity this approach is.
Who said I was voting for Trump?
Biden can easily get my vote, there’s literally only one thing he has to do; stop supporting genocide. It’s not rocket science. Don’t like the idea of him losing? Then you need to be doing everything in your power to communicate to him that he needs to do a 180 on this issue. People aren’t going to vote for him because you try to badger and shame them, didn’t work in 2016, won’t work now.
Sadly with how the US general election works, if your not voting for Biden, it just helps Trump. You know his supporters don’t care about Israel, the Middle East, women, LGBT people, etc., so they’re not holding back.
If Trump wins, none of your rhetoric will excuse where we end up, and yes Biden and the current lobbying groups so entrenched with Israel have their share of the blame, but absolutely so do the voters who let it happen.
Not a genocide. It’s war.
No. It is a genocide.
Even Netanyahu admitted it was analagous to the genocide of the Amakelites in the Torah fairy tale.
There is no debate here, it is a genocide and you are a supporter.

No, who said that? Voting uncommitted is a valid third option when Democrats don’t give you someone you can morally vote for.
