    1 in 200 Gazans were killed, for people who has family in that area of the world, they were someone’s old neighbour, friend or relative.

    I get that not voting for Biden effectively helps the Republicans, but those groups won’t agree to be political pawns, not at least without actions supporting an immediate ceasefire first.

      Other than the actions Biden has already taken to get a ceasefire, including the one which happened, what specific actions would you suggest that wouldn’t damage his chances at the polls more than it gained him?

        1. Stop giving billions of dollars of weapons for free to a country actively committing genocide.

        2. Stop spreading false Israeli propaganda (“40 beheaded babies”, “only democracy in the middle east”, “human shields” etc)

        3. When Israel commits war crimes on camera, criticize them publically instead of running defense for them.

        4. Call up Netanyahu and tell him that, if he continues this war, the US will withdraw support for Israel. If it worked for Reagan, why can’t it work for Biden?

          1: loses more Votes than it gains. Pure stupid to expect much less demand.
          2: citation required. Shti posted in teh press are not in the control of the White House.
          3: loses more Votes than it gains. Pure stupid to expect much less demand.
          4: lil’ baby bibi hates Biden and loves Trump. He also knows that there is no way Biden would be stupid enough to make a threat he can’t back up. The political position and options are in no way similar to fifty years ago as anyone that knows anything about what Ronnie did knows. That is why it can’t work.

            Maybe it’s time America has a reset if you have people trying this hard to apologize a genocide. Just get on with the civil war.
