Joe Biden’s claims about Gaza are absurd

    Gonna say this again in this thread, because it apparently needs saying for some people that don’t understand geopolitics.

    1. The United States is not fighting on the ground in this war.
    2. The United States is not assaulting Gaza
    3. A national alliance with another country isn’t just willy-nilly bullshit you can change your mind on at any point
    4. Israel is the ONLY ally the US has in this part of the world

    The only country NOT signing on to the ceasefire agreements is Israel. If your issue is that US is selling them munitions, GUESS WHAT? Other countries will totally do so, and we would lose them as an ally if we didn’t.

    Your want for the world to be what it isn’t is not the problem. Your anger should be directed at the people who are actually doing the bad things.

        Nope, just the reality of the thing. Israel will get their weapons from elsewhere if we don’t comply, and then we lose a base of operations in that part of the world. It’s the unfortunate world you’re living in.
