He can't go any further right, so he can't be pushed right. Ergo, he can only be pushed left. Libs owned us yet again

The increased aid isn't nothing. It's not enough, but it's something we might not have without people pushing that boulder. It's also just one issue. Overall Biden's administration has been much further left than his history predicted.
Soooo much further left. How’s that border wall coming?
Wrt US aid, it literally is nothing, it’s PR nonsense. You CANNOT be left wing and propping up/funding a genocide.
That nothing aid is saving lives. You clearly care more about being smug than helping Palestinians. If it were Trump I guarantee it would be worse.

The airdropped aid literally killed people, because the US refuses to stand up to Israel and tell them to let aid in other ways.
How would you deliver aid in a way that was guaranteed not to kill anyone? Trucks? Nope, those kill people every day. Push carts? Nope, too slow and people would die of exhaustion. Boats? That takes a dock and we're building one. (And people can die that way too.)
I personally don't think Biden has the ability to force Israel to do anything unless he does it through military force, which I don't support. Russia or China would quickly fill the vacuum if the US just pulled out. Ramping up pressure over time maximizes the US's influence over Israel. I think Biden should have ramped it up a lot faster, but it is the most effective strategy.
Israel is literally a US client state, how do you not think that they could be brought immediately to heel if those in power wished it?
Edit: Sorry, I saw your other posts. You are just the dumbest motherfucker alive.
The aid truck don't kill people, the IOF who use the aid trucks as bait kill people, genocidal settlers protesting to keep the trucks getting in kills people by starvation
Neither Russia nor China could ever be as evil as
even if they actively tried
