Based on Biden's own statements over the last 40 years, Israel's genocide IS America's genocide. There is no separation. There is no demarcation... Certainly explains the total disregard for human rights and war crime impunity.

You wanna know the best part? The democrats are the best option (out of 2) for Palestinians and global stability. Trump already questioned generals why we can't use nukes ffs, and many of the Christian Taliban of project 2025 believe that nuclear war in the Middle East is what's needed for the second coming of Jesus Christ. This mental illness IS America.

Real "Cake or Death, but we're out of cake" tier of options.

Jesus christ what the fuck is it with boomers/silents and Zionism? Like yeah, we know the Holocaust happened and it was horrific, but that doesn’t give Israel carte blanche to perpetrate a Holocaust of their own on Palestinians. Nor, for that matter, should it be used to fully equate the Israeli state with all Jewish people, everywhere, no matter what, which they seem to try to do fucking always.

Biden leaving the office right as he's creating a whole new regional war because of that sweet AIPAC money.

He's the biggest recipient of lobbying money by Pro-Israeli groups out of any Senator in history. He's going to create a whole new generational conflict in the Middle East for some extra cash.

He's such a hardcore Zionist that he'd probably do it for free.

This is what so many people on Lemmy seem to be missing: Biden is ideologically Zionist.

As a politician, he's taken less lobbying money than most (broadly, not just from AIPAC). He's bought into the cause of building an ethnostate, as much as he lies when he claims to disagree with Netanyahu.
