    If a kid is shooting up a school, and I keep providing him ammunition as he's doing it, am I just an innocent bystander? The US has the power to put conditions on the aid given. They do it for Ukraine.

      I'm not going to draw you a diagram of this complex situation. If you can't be bothered to acknowledge its nuances and see that Biden's position is definitively not a "oh hell yes" to Israel's war crimes, no amount of explaining will change your mind.

        What has Biden done to stop Israel? Yes, he's said he wants a ceasefire, but the US vetoing the UN resolution for a ceasefire, sending warships to the area to prevent anyone else from attacking Israel, sending Israel military aid, and continuing to insist Israel "has a right to defend itself" when the death toll is close to 10:1 Palestinians to Israelis all go in the "hell yes" column. I'm genuinely curious what actions you believe go in the "no" column. What has the US done to stop Israel?

        Edit: downvoted with no reply. Thanks. That's exactly the answer I expected.
