    The arrogant pieces of shit in the Biden administration thought they could swoop in, get some kind of ceasefire to say they did something, less than a week before the election.

      Am I wrong to assume Israel wouldn’t stop their genocide even if the US stops supporting them? The US isn’t forcing Israel to be scumbags.

        Israel would not be able to exist without American support. It’s a welfare colonial state that exists thanks to the arms, technology, and soldiers the US provides. Israel is ridiculously hated in the middle east. Even their “friends” like Saudi Arabia, are only friends because of American influence. That support and influence goes away then they get attacked by every nation around them.

          Fair enough, but does Israel need permission to not genocide their neighbours? We should focus on Israel first I think. Unless you think they’re a lost cause.

            They’re definitely a lost cause. Majority of Israeli citizens support the genocide. They don’t want to stop, not until they’ve grabbed a decent amount of land first.

            And besides, Israel doesn’t have the means to continue it without America. They’re burning through too much cash and weapons to continue without foreign support.
