The poll found 50% of Democrats approve of how Biden has navigated the conflict while 46% disapprove — and the two groups diverge substantially in their views of U.S. support for Israel. Biden’s support on the issue among Democrats is down slightly from August, as an AP-NORC poll conducted then found that 57% of Democrats approved of his handling of the conflict and 40% disapproved.
Genuine question: other than the speech right after Oct 7 happened, what has Biden even done besides require Ukraine and Israel funding to be in the same bill? I keep seeing posts about Biden’s response but I still don’t know what it is :c
In my post history, I was leaning towards Israel in the beginning until I learned about the atrocities they committed/are committing. At this point, I’m firmly of the opinion that Palestine needs justice.
Genuine question:
Aside from pressure and funding, which the US government has yet to manifest, what would your expectations be of the US government in this situation?
The response people expect from his is an immediate ceasefire which he still has failed to accomplish. Not only that, he has failed to outright counter the narrative that Palestine = Hamas that some news outlets are spewing and failed to approach the issue with neutrality. Blanket support for Israel has made him (and the US) complicit in a genocide.
People in his admin have quit over his stance and are apparently furious with how he’s positioned the US in this “war”. He/his admin also criticized Rashid Tlaib for speaking in favor of Palestine which caused dems and republicans to censure her.

Basically, fuck Biden. And also, we’re fucked in 2024 at the hands of yet another geriatric asshole incapable of forming a coherent sentence, chose which flavor (D or R) you want.
You really gonna wrap up your shit take with a brain dead both-sides line?
Thanks for the laugh, moron
I really ought to call you a fucking idiot, but you’ve probably heard that all your life, so no sense for me to keep hammering it home.
I’m all ears for the genius take you have but being the fucking idiot you are, you’re probably going to have a stroke trying to put it down into words.
But sure, keep laughing. It’s likely good for your smooth brain.
