Ahh yes, agreeing to respect international law: the lowest bar of effort. How sad is it that this feels like something we must celebrate?

the lowest bar of effort.

This feels a bit disingenuous.

We're in the middle of trade negotiations that affect a huge swathe of jobs etc with an aggressively pro Israel leader. Considering donald's capriciousness and willingness to punish allies for ideological disagreement, this actually feels like a bit of a ballsy statement.

If I were on the US relations file, I'd be praying no one related this to trump etc.

There is no appeasing a tyrant, only resistance.

This is a really easy opinion when it costs you nothing.
