    In no way did i argue that Biden was not complicit in genocide, he could have just not given Israel weapons. He was, and trump is guilty of that. My only interjection was to point out that attributing the cease fire to trump is wrong not only because they were colluding to make trump look good, but they didn’t even honor the cease fire anyway so it’s a moot point. They both suck, trump sucks way harder.

      This is an insane thing to think. That Israel’s behavior isn’t determined by the immediate interests of its ruling class but instead the transient and superficial perception of an incoming already elected president. Just full on blueanon conspiracy brain.

      If this was done to make Trump look good, it was done by Trump using the power Biden left on the table. It wasn’t done as a favor or a handshake deal.

      but they didn’t even honor the cease fire anyway so it’s a moot point

      Do you honestly think there’s no difference between a ceasefire that’s being violated and a full on invasion and occupation? Do you think Israel remains at war with Lebanon?

        1. Paying only lip service to trump cost them nothing, and pays big dividends to them. They fundamentally had to change nothing to accommodate this. This is pretty much accepted as very transparent to all but you.

        2. At no point did i equate faking a cease fire, to an invasion. Trump plans to invade Gaza, and i believe i specifically mentioned trump was way worse.
