At the DNC, progressives and moderates came together to support Kamala Harris by largely ignoring the most pressing moral issue of our time.

Why does the US always support Israel no matter what?
Money! -Mr. Crabs
This one right here? Textbook antisemitism.
“Politicians do something I don’t like? Must be the rich jews in the background influencing them!!!”
America practices neoliberal imperialism. Israel is one of the main dogs they’ve propped up to unleash on the middle east so they don’t have to
Now the dog got loose in it’s neighborhood and America cannot get it back in their yard but also, they’re making money on it not being in the yard and likely will make more the longer they allow it to continue.
Israel will clear out and control natural resources America wants, Israel will spend money on American guns. Two things America loves

I saw on “Open Secrets” that Biden accepted over $1mil from Israel donations and have to wonder if it has impacted the DNC’s stance. I’m admittedly unfamiliar with the intricacies and open to information that would go against this assumption.

He’s a self-proclaimed Zionist, so in his eyes Israel can do no wrong. I think it’s one area where he can’t be moved, even if he didn’t take their money. It’s sad, really, that he tarnished his very good policy record and his legacy. He will forever be known as genocide Joe.
