‘Madness’: Netanyahu’s handling of US relations under scrutiny after UN vote
Oh look its just like we told all the apologists it would be.
Leftist have been spitting facts since 1848, the world just hasn’t bothered to listen. 👂
Yes, Biden could have stopped this genocide any time. But he didn't care until he saw that it was costing him votes. I guess the Russian trolls were onto something.
Butthurt blue MAGA downvote brigade has arrived. You’re 100% correct though.
The shitty part is that 86% of Congress wants to continue with the genocide. It’s incredible how little morality exists in DC when money is flowing into their coffers. Biden is doing what he must to play politics here, which is to say barely anything at all after almost half a year of Arabs being slaughtered. But we have a long ways to go before the US changes course in earnest to actually thwart the genocide, if it happens at all before November.
Don't know why you're getting downvoted for being correct.
Hey, I'm Canadian! And I'm not really a troll, more of a hater.
”Netanyahu,” he continued, “has been dealing with America the way a spoiled teenager deals with his parents: with perpetual rebellion, perpetual insults and perpetual scandals.”
While not inaccurate, I’d resent this association if I was still a teenager.
Why would the US still think of Israel as its ally?
Calling Israel a "spoiled child" sounds delusional at this point.
Mainly I’d say because of Iran. Bibi hated the nuclear deal because he needs Iran as a wedge to keep the US behind them.
Media is really going to try and spin abstaining from a nonbinding resolution as some courageous stand against Israel...
It's a very gentle warning that patience is not limitless and that all the US has to do to ruin Israel's day is nothing. Don't veto. Don't approve funding increase. Don't expedite a shipment. These are all perks that Netenyahu has taken for granted.
Also, even this gentlest of warnings is still unprecedented. Normally the US gives Israel whatever they want, no questions asked.
Yeah, but that's the problem.
And this isn't good enough to make up for all the bullshit, especially banning UNRWA aid for something we know was Israeli propaganda.
Is this better than a veto?
Absolutely.
But it can also be nowhere near close enough to what we should be doing.
I'm not going to pretend this is something to celebrate, especially since it's likey the only reason there was no veto. Was the sustained complaints from voters.
Maybe, just maybe, if enough people keep complaining, Biden will temporarily pause funding the genocide until the day after election day. I don't think we'll get more than that, but I think there's a chance for more than a single abstain vote
It's not non binding. Security council resolutions are binding.
America just lied and said it's non binding right after the resolution passed to cover for israel anyways. But it's not true.
So, it was a binding resolution for immediate ceasefire...
There's no ceasefire...
So how is it binding? Where's the enforcement?
Has any country even stopped aid to Israel because they're continuing their genocide?
Israel is still flagrantly breaking international law, which is more "binding" than any UN resolution
Holy shit. Bibi may have actually fatally overplayed his hand. This is incredible.
Fucking tragic that it took a genocide to do it, though.
Yes, it's almost like not kowtowing to fascists is a good strategy.
