Biden forgets he can make it happen with his explicit Constitutional powers as President.
"Bibi, you murderous fuckwit, if you do not resign I will start withdrawing from our treaties and expelling your diplomats."
(Okay it's a little more complicated than that, but not a lot more complicated than that)
US has laws on the book that should prevent the transfer of aid to countries doing what Isreal is doing. So its really not more complicated that what you said. Literally we just have to start following our own laws, but we won't because it's better for Israel if we disregard our own laws.
I don’t even understand why your country has laws for your government and elites if they’re not enforced or followed, like, at all.
Neither do I to be honest. I also dont know why we have cops when they steal more through asset forfeiture than burgalers steal and they kill more people than mass shooters annually
What better to enforce a right wing capitalist oligarchy than right wing armed and deadly machismo fueled police force with zero accountability?
US has laws on the book that should prevent the transfer of aid to countries doing what Isreal is doing.
Funny how those laws don't tie Biden's hands, unlike virtually everything else.
"Best I can do is more sanctions on Iran, but hey, I'll throw in some sanctions on Venezuela too".
Netanyahu? What's preventing this now that would make it possible then?
His term as president is already over, however he has a stay as long as the war takes
Wow that actually explains so much... The longer Israel is at war, the longer he stays in power. That's why he doesn't want to negotiate with Hamas. That's why he's attacking Iran. What an ass.
Netanyahu is the Prime Minister of Israel, not the President. His term is till whenever their Parliament loses confidence in him. But yes, prolonging the war may keep smaller parties supporting him, so the rest is probably true.
But super-privately, just between him and Bibi, they should bomb some more! In fact, that’s why Biden keeps allowing military aid…
That gave me one of the most inappropriate video + video suggestion combos I've ever experienced 😂
Honestly I could see the hawks pushing Bibi to keep poking Iran so they can get the US dragged in by defense commitments.
I could also see the hawks getting Biden to lean into it, the US is pretty good at knocking countries over really damn fast in an invasion, meaning a potentially tempting "win" for Biden to sure up support with moderates and boomercrats now that progressives are making noises about doing the "unreliable voting block that consistently forget that the tea party vote threats are always to primary a candidate not to not turn out at the general" thing they did in 2016.
