It’s absolutely sickening and ridiculous that we are on the brink of WWIII because of these two men - Biden and Netanyahu! Whoever they were that convinced Biden to drop out of the race now need to go back to him and show him how his ”ironclad” support of Israel is destroying his legacy and may easily take his heir-apparent down with him.

A majority of Americans, including a majority of Jewish Americans, want a ceasefire. A majority of Israelis want Netanyahu removed. Biden has more than enough cover to pull US support by framing it as pulling support for Netanyahu who is out of control and endangering the people of Israel and the very existence of the state of Israel. And as the chief obstacle to getting back the hostages.
It’s beyond insane that one stubborn old man and one corrupt politician hold the fates of millions in their hands. I am 74 years old and a lifetime Democrat, but I am supporting Jill Stein. I went to DC on 7/24 to protest Netanyahu. I’m horrified by the slaughter and our facilitation of it. And I totally agree that Blinken is a feckless embarrassment as well as John Kirby and Matthew Miller who never miss an opportunity to gaslight us.
Maybe if Biden can be convinced that the path he is on is a losing one, maybe if he is convinced that the hundreds of thousands of uncommitted voters have the power to determine who is president, maybe then he will pull his ironclad support for Israel.
i appreciate your disgust but by all accounts the old man that can only work 6 hours a day probably isn't (effectively) even our commander in chief. the system is a whole lot of lobbyists, working for monied interests, paying off bureaucrats who hope to land jobs with aforementioned monied interests. its a well oiled machine. you oil it up with the blood of palestinians, ukranians, latinos, etc and it generates money. and its not much different in israel.
Wishful to believe it's just two creepy guys. What happens if we escape Netanyahu's lameduck "opportunity?. Or if enraged Israelis finally remove Netanyahu? Everyone will have seen Gaza destroyed in a way unprecedented since World War II. American neoliberals and MAGAts will still compete: The new U.S. government will still take catastrophic risks (that did not start with Israel and does not end with Russia) and the new Israeli leadership will pursue old and new forms of ethnic cleansing -- now well-advanced in the West Bank, and whatever liberal Zionists want for "post-genocide" Gaza.
At this moment, it's two creepy guys that are responsible for the current genocide. I don't disagree with your comments on the powers that be in Israel and the US. It's why I am supporting Jill Stein.
Thanks again, Jeremy. This is important reporting.
For some years it has looked to me that Israel/Netanyahu has two big objectives: 1. Expand Jewish-dominated territory and control. 2. Get the USA into a major war with Iran. Neither of these goals is in the best interests of the American people. Accomplishing either or both of these goals would not improve the daily lives of Americans, nor would they enhance USA‘s standing in the world. So, in addition to the horrific impact on humans and the environment, USA‘s support of these Israeli policies is strategically ill advised.
America‘s leaders, applauding and giving standing ovations to Netanyahu‘s lies, is as disgusting as anyone celebrating the attacks of September 11, 2001.
Yes to all of this.... But no one is talking about the far right evangelicals (who are behind the Neo-Con agenda (fueling white nationalist and MAGA) actually give more money to Israel than AIPAC. The group, Christains United for Israel, who I'm thinking got Trump to move the US embassy from Tel Aviv, to Jerusalem, has raised MILLIONS more than AIPAC. Evangelicals are in Israel now, picking fruit and cleaning bathrooms.
Evangelicals have been brainwashed for decades, with their end of the world, apocalypse, second coming prophecies. Christain Zionist WANT Israel to kill or drive out all non-jews from the region to fullfill their wackadoodle prophecy. Now, I peronally think the Military Industrial Complex is just co-opting the religious extremism to further their reign on global resources (oil, gas, cobalt, water, wheat), mix all that with patriachial capitalism driven by mass greed so a few more guys can join the global oligarchy club, that Putin and Saudi Arabia have marketed so well and here we are.....

I agree. And not only is N endangering the Middle East, but also the US, Jewry and world.

Kshama Savant had interesting words on why she endorsed Stein. And what the Preen Party is not.
