The US has to be very careful about how they go about doing that. If they end their military protection of Israel, or even appear to be considering it, that could risk Iran and others wanting to try to exploit the situation, and cause more instability and more conflict. The next logical step is to put politicians with genocide rethoric on the sanctions list. It's not going to be enough, or satisfy anyone, but it would be an historic step to take and line up a path towards putting Nettanyahu himself on a future sanctions list.

They have to do it step by step though, they can't be seen as abandoning or going against Israel.
Taking their toys away isn't only referring to military funding. Any other state would've been most likely made a pariah long ago for what they've been doing to Palestinians. Instead, the EU and the US have opened the doors for them in their countries and elsewhere in every way possible.

That's quite an understatement, and inaccurate really. The US is fully complicit in the genocide supplying weapons, UNSC vetos, funding and overall protection. It is as much a US genocide as it is a zionist genocide. The UK and the EU are complicit too.
Yep. You are correct. Saying they are doing nothing was wrong…

The U.S, U.K and E.U are literally aiding and abetting a genocide.

I put it into Google translate and it helpfully pointed out that instead of 'Palastinenseen' it should be 'Palastinensern' and then it makes sense and stops blaming lakes.
Yeah, you're right. Just a slight case of a typo.

For those that are atheist you might struggle to reconcile the existence of God. But watching the USA and Israel surely you believe in the existence of the Devil now? He has made himself known and has amassed his followers.
Nah its human beings exercising their power as its always been. A bit like when homo sapiens clubbed the neanderthals to death.

I’ve lost faith with the world but I truly hope all these evil people face consequences for what they have done to the Palestinians. May Palestine be free.

Can't really blame them, there was a hamas data center under the neanderthal cave.

Poor biden, if he only had any real power :(
It's like his hands are tied. Bizarre. He's the president of the strongest country in the world and he's acting like a bitch. Show some fecking backbone and stop backing them.

I guess he is thinking it'll push away Jewish American votes to Trump.

Waiting for Giggsy PO or the other guy (gfactor) to tell us that Hamas have built tunnels under the ICJ in The Hague.

Let's be real. The Jordanians have been pathetic during all this.

Their sole involvement in this regional conflict is helping the US bomb Iraq.
Yeah, same as almost all arab countries that's just for show.

Agree - they're also providing land access (as are UAE and Saudi) for Israeli imports (agriculture, food etc) that are circumventing the Houthis / Yemen which is pretty pathetic.

It's good to see Biden looking awkward and embarrassed though - I'm always here for that.

"Palestinian violence, from Arafat to Hamas, means Israel has nobody to negotiate with."


Like with Gandhi's idiotic advice to Jews under Hitler, no amount of non-violent resistance is going to move Israeli policy an inch.
