I think the recent lesson the democrats have had about “hard tone” probably would’ve come in handy on Israel negotiations too. Rather than being a fan of murdering kids, I’m guessing Biden very much took a standpoint of “not wanting to upset too many people” when asking them not to bomb hospitals.
For one cause or another, the democratic party needs to find its righteous anger. It needs to risk more possibilities of people shouting back “Hey, you can’t say that!”

No, this narrative about the Democrats being smol beans who didn’t support Israel but are just too gosh darn shy to stop sending them $10,000,000,000s in weapons, deploying Navy carrier groups off the coast, bombing Israel’s enemies, blocking every attempt by the international community to intervene, or repeating and amplifying debunked Israeli propaganda, is just white washing. The Biden administration was run by hard core Zionist true believers, including Biden himself.

I’ll remove my downvote on you if you can show me evidence of the United States (not Israel) piloting bombers against Israel’s enemies, and blocking international interventions, as you claim. Though Israel has done terrible things, the basic principle of subject-verb-predicate interpretation of those statements does not sound at all correct.

I’m assuming you’re sealioning, as this is common knowledge for anyone who has been paying attention for the last year of genocide. But in case you’re serious, here’s some examples, and I’m the future I suggest you look into subjects you don’t know about before commenting on them.
