The Biden administration has no plans to change its policy toward Israel after the ally’s forces killed seven humanitarian aid workers.
It’s the latest example of the United States criticizing Israel’s conduct of the war against Hamas while remaining reluctant to use its leverage to force a change. Biden has stood with Israel as it aims for the military defeat of Hamas, resisting calls from progressives and pro-Palestinian voices to condition military aid or impose other restrictions. Such moves would break, rather than bend, the relationship with Israel, the administration argues. And they would end any sway the U.S. has with Israel over protecting civilians.
That has caused fissures within the Biden administration. “It’s just rinse and repeat with the Israelis. The American political system can’t or won’t draw a real line with them and that is regrettable,” said a senior U.S. official.
When Biden loses in November we will all know why. People will continue to bitch, moan, and complain that everyone needs to hold their nose and vote for the lesser of two evils. But the reality is that approach has never worked, and only serves to further increase voter apathy.
Donald Trump is going to win precisely because it is necessary for him to avoid the consequences of his actions. He will do whatever is necessary to fight to that end, and he will ultimately be successful because failure is not an option.
The Democratic establishment has not truly internalized this. They do not seriously care about winning enough to stop playing politics, and start winning votes. They feel entitled to our votes because they believe we are a captive audience. They believe we have no other choice. But the fact of the matter is that is not good enough to muster the fervent level of support that is going to be necessary in November.
We will continue to hear over and over again that the polls don’t matter. Do not believe your lying eyes. Fixate on the bread and media circus of the Jerry Springer-esque saga of Trump’s most current legal drama, all the while they continue to give him billions of dollars in free advertising. We have seen this all before, and we know how it ends. Donald Trump will be President again, and we can all thank the same pretentious, elitist, self-entitled horse shit that the Democratic party has been shoveling down our fucking throats for years.
They are bought and paid for by their corporate overlords, and the open secret has always been that they would rather give in to total fascism than allow the Overton window to be drug even one fucking inch to the left.
I don’t outright disagree with anything you said but the saving grace could be the campaign money. Trump is counting on his personality cult to carry him through the media circus of publicity while his finances go to court fees. Money can win elections and so far Bidens winning the money race. I wouldn’t know how to quantify that money advantage though, so who knows if its enough.

Wouldn’t it be helpful if the article actually went over the “Israel policy”?
“the United States will not transfer weapons when it is “more likely than not” that those weapons will be used to commit, facilitate the commission of, or aggravate the risk of specified violations. Those violations include “grave breaches of the Geneva Conventions of 1949, including attacks intentionally directed against civilian objects or civilians protected as such,” and “other serious violations of international humanitarian or human rights law.” The Biden administration received praise for strengthening the standard relative to the Obama and Trump policies”
Those words seem to ring hollow
Biden does, for the most part, what he says he’s going to do. He was raised in the age of Israel is a golden child that can do no wrong, never let anything hurt em. And that’s what he does. As they genocide an entire nation, the US funds it and says “we don’t see anything wrong with this” with a straight face. They either believe the world and American voters are actual idiots, or they have no respect the world and American voters. No other option. You know what you’re going to get with Biden, more of this until there’s nothing more to discuss. Talking about the Native American tribes sort of went out the window when the US killed them all and sent them to Oklahoma to die. Negotiating land and rights treaties didn’t really matter. Same here. It won’t really matter when all the Palestinians are dead. That’s when Israel wants to discuss it.
Trump… He is owned. He will be the strongest supporter of whoever gives him more money that week. Which means something could happen as long as someone has deep pockets. And if not, he’ll do the same thing as Biden does… Until the country implodes. And then the 2 sides can go their separate ways. Realistically, I see 8 or 10 little broken pieces in an EU style. That way the PR can say there was no fracture. But in all reality the laws and lifestyle will be completely different in the People’s Christian Republic of Texas versus New York City.
Trying extremely hard to lose
The World Kitchen is the REAL Terrorists!
