    What scrambles my brain is he won’t even do the most basic shit. Like okay Gazans are starving because Aid is being blocked. Why aren’t we tying our weapons deliveries to the flow of Aid?

    Even if you believe the IDF is the most moral military on the planet (laugh, snort) this is an obvious measure to make sure there isn’t a famine. And the IDF could have pretended they did it willingly if they had done this in December when we knew it was a problem!

    But nope. Is there a Biden pee tape? What in the actual hell is going on?

      Because the point of the weapons delivers is to kill Gazans, not save them. This isn’t a bug, its a feature. Genocide and permanent depopulation of Arabs in the Gaza strip is the entire purpose of this military operation.

      Biden has been an Israel die-hard since the 70s and he’s only grown more intractable with age.
