Netanyahu wouldn’t stop just because Biden cut off weapons shipments. At best the genocide would be paused for a couple of months until Trump took office and resumed shipments.
Two months without genocide is better than genocide. There’s no moral or humane reason not to exert every ounce of possible influence to stop this even if it ends up being temporary. I don’t think Biden has any idea how poorly history will judge him for his lack of action. He has the power in this relationship. And it’s infuriating that he has consistently refused to use it.
And for an example of how unfair the world is: Trump will probably not be judged poorly, even when he inevitably makes things worse, because Trump doesn’t get the blame for the bad things he does, he gets rewarded. It’s not fair, it’s not right, but not much is these days.
No he won’t. He gets paid too much not to.
Edit: For those of you who don’t believe me and are just downvoting me. Biden has received more money from Pro-Israel lobbyists than any other Senator in history.
The continued myth that Israel needs our help killing people…
They don’t need it, but the US government happily provides it.
It would be great progress for genocide joe to test that “myth” by no longer supporting genocide.
In order for that to happen, he would first have to be supporting the genocide, which he is not.
There’s no Gaza left to save, Biden finished the job.
JFC, how about a plan to save America?
Why would he stop the only thing any centrist has ever wanted?
Why bother? The Palestinians stabbed him in the back. Let them deal with the face-eating leopards they conjured up.
Why in the hell would he do that when the voters who fucked him and the Dems over?
Let Trump fix it.
Because people’s lives are on the line.
Because it is still his job and because they need all the goodwill they can get if they want a sliver of a chance in 2028.
