    Good thing I never voted for Trump. I voted for Biden despite everything I knew about him because some people promised to push him left. Not only Biden hasn’t undone the evils Trump did but he is competing with him on who is the bigger Zionist.

    All the people who have repeated that Biden did a lot of character development and he is no longer the racist guy he was, were either themselves misled or intentionally trying to mislead. He’s the same person who was eager to kill women and children in 1982:

    “Begin said he was shocked at how passionately Biden supported Israel’s invasion when Biden “said he would go even further than Israel, adding that he’d forcefully fend off anyone who sought to invade his country, even if that meant killing women or children.”

    He also slashed funding to the UN agency supporting Palestinian refugees

    The same thing Biden is doing right now https://www.npr.org/2024/02/18/1232301965/the-u-s-is-barring-funding-to-unrwa-the-only-international-organization-aiding-g and this defunding is based on false allegations https://www.npr.org/2024/04/23/1246613547/unrwa-israel-hamas-gaza-war

    The Biden administration reversed this policy in February

    Yet the settlements are expanding and the US sent more aid than ever to Israel. Until the US conditions aid on the dismantling of illegal settlements in the West Bank and the return of the Golan to Syria, it is all for show.

          I compleley get not voting for him. From everything I’ve read, this is violating international law and we should really all be in favor of that, people of all creeds. It seems like there is limited aid to these people who are suffering also. I am not sure if this is out of the norm, since there is so much suffering in the world, but it seems like the lack of moral clarity about how it’s wrong to subject civiliians to extreme suffering is something more specific to this conflict.

          Remember, Hunter Biden has a daughter he pretends doesn’t exist. He doesn’t talk with her and she’s never met other family members because Hunter demanded the mother abort since she wasn’t respectable enough for the Biden name but the mother didnt abort so Hunter demands other family not meet his daughter. Joe goes along with this ostracism and has never met his own granddaughter. My point is, listening to others and ignoring moral failings for political expediency and pragmatism and not rocking the boat is part of what Joe Biden does. It’s in line with how he does things. Joe Biden also probably does see what is happening as problematic but is trying to be pragmatic, but it’s the wrong decision.

          So I understand how you feel.
