    And he’s losing a LOT more votes from younger people for supporting the genocide of Palestinians without question.

    Finding hundreds of billions of dollars without any question for more bombs that will kill more civilians, and yet never even raising a finger to fight for some of the these younger generations’ needs that were supposedly part of his agenda.

    It’s not going to be pretty when Biden loses the election.

    Young people don’t watch cnn msnbc fox etc… all of these networks never question the support of Palestinian genocide and unconditional support of israel.

    The media young people watch question these things. Thank god

        I think you’re making this more complicated than it is. You’re trying to view America’s position as a domestic issue when it’s an international one, and it’s the international nature of the issue that explains America’s position.

        Although there is growing pressure and agreement that is real has gone too far, there is no appetite for suspending support for Israel.

        The facts are:

        • There is no region of the world more essential to global security for the next 100 years than the Middle East;

        • Israel, though classified as a “flawed democracy” same as the US, is the only democracy in the region;

        • Hamas and Iran have a shared intention and goal to destroy Israel;

        • Israel is nuclear armed and will obviously not surrender to Tehran;

        • US support, specifically air and missile defense, is the thing that prevents Iran from invading Israel;

        • Open war between Iran and Israel will kill millions more people than there are in all of Palestine;

        • There is no appetite in Washington for another failed state in the middle east.

        That’s my two cents. The enemy here as usual is nationalism. Nationalists pervert everything, including democracy. Whether it’s the nationalists in charge of Israel or the ones in charge of Iran.

        I know they have to make calculated decisions like this, but isn’t this kind of thing why Hillary lost, because she basically didn’t campaign at all in a few states because she assumed her support would stick with her because she deserved it and trump only had degenerate supporters
