Biden's going hard on diplomacy, most of which we don't see. We do see some of the carrot and stick approach he's using. The stick is the canceled shipment. The promise of future arms is the carrot he's dangling in front of isreal.
Biden reeeeealy wants to see Netanyahu gone
Completely delusional. Literally just making up a reality and choosing to live in it regardless of anything that happens.
Is it also delusional to say that Biden is intentionally alienating the people most likely to vote for him?
I think it's safe to say it's a complex situation and saying Biden is doing everything he can is just as stupid as saying he is doing nothing at all.
Of course not. The democrats fully expect anyone on the left to continue supporting them because "what are you gonna do, vote Trump?" The people Biden is most likely to alienate are the people most likely to vote for him, because he has no reason to cater to the demands of safe voters.
Not to mention the fact that he's literally spent his entire career unwaveringly supporting Israel, and all his current actions are totally consistent with full support for Israel and everything it's doing. You know, actual evidence.
You are right to say it's stupid to claim he's doing nothing at all. What he's doing is much, much worse than nothing - he is unconditionally arming a genocide.
