Biden condemns ‘antisemitic protests’ — and absence of Palestinian empathy, too
Biden condemns ‘antisemitic protests’ — and absence of Palestinian empathy, too
You're viewing a single thread.
The Israeli lobby and PR machine is going into overdrive over these protests. It must be working. How can we support them?
Republicans and Democrats are united on this too.
What news are you reading? Republicans want more funding for Israeli defense. They tried to draft legislation for Israel aid independent of Ukraine and Taiwan. You’re joking, right?
Edit: And Trump has encouraged the eradication of the Palestinians as long as Israel “doesn’t record it”

they both seem to be pro israel, regardless of funding strategies
That’s true. Historically, America has always been in support of Israel. Democrats support Israel, and Republicans support Israel and push for an active war with Iran.
And what does the Democratic party want?
Both sides support Israel, but they’re far from united. Republicans have been pushing Israel to take the fight directly to Iran since the proxy conflict started in ‘85. Believe it or not, this is a more moderate version of support than the republicans would have if they were in control.
The democrats are smart enough to know that it's not a good look to be rooting for more violence, but they are still materially interested in supporting Israel's domination in the region.
It's only meaningfully different if all you care about is aesthetics.
Aesthetics? Trump encouraged the eradication of Palestinians, and criticized Israel for recording proof of their crimes. You’re playing with fire even considering a more moderate response from a republican.

I'm aware of Trumps remarks, thank you.
Eradication of Palestinians is happening regardless of Biden's 'stern' words. The only material difference between Biden and Trump is their public remarks on the matter, either way Israel conducts themselves the way they want without meaningful repercussions.
That's the definition of aesthetic.
