Governments cannot take big decisions extremely quickly except in the most extreme of circumstances.

      What then? Maybe 98% supports + 2% doesn’t support the genocide?

      That 2% because a genocide might be a bit inconvenient with an election coming up?

        It’s an absurd thing to say. I understand (and agree) that the U.S. should do more to stop Israel. In fact, I am personally for ceasing all aid to them until they get their country under control. However, I’m not a politician and can make such statements from the convenience of my own home without consequence. I’m not a leader of a democratic nation that itself sits on a knife’s edge between gridlocked governance and full on autocracy. Biden no doubt is weighing the next election in his decision making because he has to. The wrong choice will land a maniac back in the White House. To say he supports genocide is just provocateur nonsense.
