“Honestly, it didn’t come up. We talked mostly about the Netflix series Night Agent. Have you seen it? So good.”
- Biden, probably.
“Where the fuck am I?”
- Biden, definitely
Biden continues to do what he does best: encourage more civilian casualties.
Biden continues to do what he does best: encourage more civilian casualties.
Actually Biden is doing the opposite of this.
By… Grudgingly sending billions of dollars in military aid to Israel?
Sending aid and discouraging casualties are not mutually exclusive.
Sending aid and discouraging casualties by telling the media is about as useful as telling the police that you swear the 10lb of weed you have fell in through the window.
You’re presuming he only told the media, which is not what that report says. His team relayed this to Israeli officials:
Biden aide Jake Sullivan, the US national security adviser, is in Israel today and tomorrow for meetings with Israeli officials. He says he held “intense, detailed conversations” with Israeli officials on transitioning away from high-intensity fighting in Gaza, and focusing on more precise battles and targeting top Hamas officials.
Funny how most everyone here assumes the worst of Biden despite all he’s doing.
Sending aid and discouraging casualties by telling the media and discussing it with Israeli officials without any incentive or enforcement is about as useful as telling the police that you swear the 10lb of weed you have fell in through the window and the proof is that it doesn’t have your name on it.
FTFY
No one is assuming the worst of Biden. It’s just that american foreign policy has been exactly the same for so long that it doesn’t surprise anyone when the USA pretends to care about an international issue. Especially now that declassified CIA docs show just how much the USA has been aware and involved in practically every area they consider even a minor strategic advantage.
Oh, he is even “urging” them, so brave!

Since when are the colonized the ones who are ‘explicitly genocidal’? How you gon’ react when a bunch of fascist peckerwoods come to annex your land, force you out your house at gunpoint, and start occupying what was, is, and should forever be yours? You mean to tell me you’re not gonna crusade for every peckerwood scalp you can lay your blade on?
What galls me is you really bout to cape for the terrorist IDF that shoots children, medics, and journalists so regularly it might as well be day-in, day-out business as usual to a colonized subject of empire. Far as I’m concerned, Hamas is doing to their colonizers what my community is too broken, blinkered, fettered, and misled to do to our colonizers. From the river, to the sea, koupe tet boule kay.

“If I were an Arab leader, I would never sign an agreement with Israel. It is normal; we have taken their country. It is true God promised it to us, but how could that interest them? Our God is not theirs. There has been Anti-Semitism, the Nazis, Hitler, Auschwitz, but was that their fault? They see but one thing: we have come and we have stolen their country. Why would they accept that?”

Every Palestinian has not been deposed yet. If they stop before they have access to all that sweet sweet oil it all will have been for nothing.
FTFY
Biden’s doing this to bring down gas prices. /s
Every Palestinian has not been deposed yet.
Every Palestinian holds office? Seems like you don’t know what that word means.
If they stop before they have access to all that sweet sweet oil
Or, you know, while there’s a neighboring government trying to murder them.
Hamas has been propped up by Israel to create this conflict. Take a look at the proximity of wars with America and its allies to oil deposits in the last 50 years.
Gaza has oil. At this point it’s so fucking obvious what this is actually about and it’s fucking disgusting.
Netanyahu was trying to play Hamas against the PA to divide and conquer and it blew up in his face.
That’s quite the conspiracy theory. So Oct 7 was what, just a coincidence, planned by Israel, or something equally absurd?I don’t care about any of that. We could play Israel did this vs Hamas did that all day. It’s all smoke and mirrors to complicate a situation, making us argue so we’re blind to the simple truth of what it’s all about. Oil.
Why won’t America help the Palestinians? Because Israel will get them access to that oil. It’s not that complicated.
Anyway, Merry Christmas.
