Wait, so you're saying that US culpability in this conflict starts, and ends, with the Trump administration...?

Again, I don't think it's me who's under informed on this issue.....

No one said it was Trump. The US has been giving financial aid to Israel for over 50 years. You are misinformed because you believe Trump will fix it. News flash he was already president and he didn’t fix shit.

....what? You just said Abraham accords are the reason for this conflict... That's the same as saying Trump is to blame....

And just because I'm rightfully assigning blame to Biden, the current sitting US president and self-proclaimed biggest support of Israel, doesn't mean I support Trump.

Feel free to creep on all of my comment history, my political leanings should be pretty self-evident.

Don't you feel gross telling people that if they say Biden's policies have allowed the situation to get out of control, it means they support Trump?

I mean, you do understand that ultimately Israel is our client state and entirely dependent upon our aid for their survival, right?

They literally could not be prosecuting this war if we stopped shipping them weapons, and they would never have attacked Iran if we didn't have our CSG and accompanying missile destroyers sitting in between them.

Not saying that the situation is good.

Only one candidate is going to make this worse for Palestine, as a political favor. Recognition of the annexed West Bank.
