    Yes I do think they didnt because they have been selling them arms for decades, sharing information to the point where israel is now probably more capable and can now do what they want.

    The current president of America is, or at least was, defending their actions as defensive and calling for unconditional support as he is a “zionist”. Im not buying for a second they had anyone else’s interest at heart.

      Okay, so a bit tangential to out main point.

      But what do you think would actually happen, if Biden just kinda snapped, and went fully against Israel, said they were commiting genocide, said the US should stop supporting them etc. Etc. What do you think would actually realistically come from that?

        We know what would happen, every Muslim aligned country would wipe out Isreal and then people who are doing the genocide Joe shit would be bitching that biden isn’t helping israelis and how awful it is that innocent israeli children are dead. That’s what would happen if we actually stopped supporting Isreal, now if Joe biden said stop and said stop support the united states would continue to sell weapons and congress would continue to sell weapons because at the end of the day biden isn’t the president of Israel and global politics isn’t some easy thing to cram into a single issue
