I'm sure the desecration of Gaza is nightmarish, but stating that Joe Biden is on board for ethnic cleansing is like blaming Mr. Rogers for shooting up Uvalde elementary school - pure fiction and as far from the truth as it could ever possibly be.
Pure and utter garbage indeed.
He personally structured the arms deals to Israel in order to avoid congressional oversight.
If he did, good for him then. Anything Biden does I'm completely 100 percent on board with, because it really gets under the skin of the ignorant and foolish.
You sound an awful lot like a trump supporter lol.
They have comments calling trump a savior so
Yikes
LOL, what a bunch of horse shit.
The Biden administration isn’t just complicit by refusing to condemn Israel’s blockade of humanitarian aid — an absurd situation leading the U.S. to incur significant costs and unnecessary risks for symbolic airdrops. He’s actively supporting Israel’s oft-stated but ill-defined war aim of eradicating Hamas, a military effort with little concern for Palestinian lives or the fate of Israel’s hostages held in Gaza.
Biden and his advisers’ refusal to change policy on aid to Israel or rethink the diplomatic cover it provides for Israel at the United Nations reveals a U.S. presidency with little regard for civilians in Gaza. There’s nothing beyond a steady trickle of statements of concern about Palestinian civilians and anonymous West Wing officials suggesting ongoing frustration with the execution of the war.
While he provided a steady flow of weapons to Israel, Biden withheld funding from the U.N. Relief and Works Agency, or UNRWA, which provides aid to Palestinian refugees. The largest humanitarian aid body in Gaza, UNRWA was targeted by Israel with unfounded claims — that its employees participated in the October 7 attack in Israel.
In the short term, Biden’s aid policies won’t deliver any meaningful relief for the humanitarian disaster in Gaza. The latest effort involves the U.S. military constructing a causeway off the coast of Gaza to deliver as many as 2 million meals per day. The process implicitly accepts Israel’s decision to deny the passage of food into Gaza through more efficient land crossings. The causeway is expected to take two months to implement, a timeline guaranteeing famine for Gaza’s most vulnerable populations.
Garbage.
