It absolutely sucks that Democrats are able to make zero effort and get votes based solely on the fact that they aren't Republicans, but that's the way it is.

The Biden administration has been against the ground invasion from the start. Biden has made some missteps in my opinion, but America pulling support for Israel was never a real option. Israel does require aid, but Netanyaho doesn't care if that aid comes from the US, or from his buddy Putin. Israel realigning with Russia would put Palestine in an even worse position because it would threaten their support from Iran. Then, of course, there is the risk of a regional war breaking out of Iran takes the strained relationship between the US and Israel as an opportunity. That could easily pull other countries in and become WW3. Foreign policy is about more than just virtue signaling. It's outcomes that matter, and what a lot of people are calling for will not get them the outcomes they are looking for. Not that I'm shaming anyone for pressuring Biden. The positive movement on aid shipments was very likely helped along by the protest votes in Michigan. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] bufalo1973@lemmy.ml 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) How would aligning with Russia would help Israel when the US locks every weapon they can lock? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Tinidril@midwest.social 1 point 2 years ago Israel does a lot of research and innovation for US technologies, including weapons. That would be of great value to Russia. I can't speak as to what weapons the US can and can't lock. All of this is in a kind of unrealistic realm, because US support for Israel isn't going anywhere. permalink fedilink source parent

[–] Tinidril@midwest.social 14 points 2 years ago (1 child) Biden isn't pro genocide, at least there is no evidence to say that. The Biden administration has been against the ground invasion from the start. Biden has made some missteps in my opinion, but America pulling support for Israel was never a real option. Israel does require aid, but Netanyaho doesn't care if that aid comes from the US, or from his buddy Putin. Israel realigning with Russia would put Palestine in an even worse position because it would threaten their support from Iran. Then, of course, there is the risk of a regional war breaking out of Iran takes the strained relationship between the US and Israel as an opportunity. That could easily pull other countries in and become WW3. Foreign policy is about more than just virtue signaling. It's outcomes that matter, and what a lot of people are calling for will not get them the outcomes they are looking for. Not that I'm shaming anyone for pressuring Biden.
