“Why won’t he do anything to stop the bombing?”
stops bomb shipment
“Dumb dumb didn’t know bombs are for bombing? Yeah right!”
Like what even is your comment trying to say?
That Biden still carries water for Israel despite recognizing they misuse the weapons we give them
Ok so he should just let these through? And why are you responding as if anyone acted like the intended use of these bombs is a revelation?
No one here is saying this absolves him/us of the US’s role in Israel’s horrific actions. But there are protests happening, people are saying this needs to stop, and a shipment of bombs just stopped. That happened, and it’s worth noting. So we need to keep up the pressure to get this to stop entirely.
We both know he’s not going to just unilaterally end this horror show today.
That this is at best a PR stunt and at worst an outright lie. This one shipment isn't going to do anything to curtail Israel's behavior and the shipment will eventually be delivered anyway.
