If what you say is correct, then it would seem that the onus is on Israel to stop the genocide in order to save its European benefactors.

The onus to sane action is on everyone. Israel is in the wrong no matter which way u cut the pie. It does not mean that ignoring whats happening north of israel is validated bc the apartheid state is acting the way it always has.

Then the sane action is to not support and enable Israel, and not support its enablers.

If you live in the USA, you inevitably support the government. Not voting supports the greater evil, voting supports the lesser evil.

So vote, and organize anarchist enclaves, or socialist groups, or justice NGO's. Sink or swim.

Or at least Biden to reverse course and admit supporting Israel isn't worth the possibility of losing the election.

Liberals and moderates love to tell us about the choice in front of us between Biden and Trump. But they ignore the choice in front of them which is supporting Israel or losing the election.

liberals and moderates

Of course you reduce the voices not believing ur "two sides" bullshit to ill fitting buzzwords.

And there is no choice between supporting israel or not, but there is between all out war and its prevention.

Per the usual tho, youve a vested interest in keeping Americans disinterested.
