His position is the same as every US president ever: they care about Israel’s bribes, and they don’t care about Israel committing genocide to civilians.
Yeah
Hamas / Iran / Hezbollah launch over 3000 missiles and the only thing that kept the cities from being destroyed was iron dome
Israel makes some tactical strikes after dropping flyers warning to leave the area and giving the time of the strike and all of a sudden its genocide
GFY upside down and backwards
How many people know Abby on NCIS (Pauley Perrette) is a natural blonde or that the Beatles wanted a “bug name” because they were inspired by Buddy Holly and “the Crickets”.
Well explained.
those poor people in Gaza. My heart breaks for them
Crazy how the same people saying “Israel has a right to defend itself” don’t seem to believe it goes both ways!
The Jews are Jesus Christ chosen people, and that is it. Period.
@Eunice Ransfer This makes no sense.
@Eunice Ransfer im the tooth fairy’s chosen one!
The last THING, that any knowledgeable and caring human being, could EVER utter at this time, is tantamount to the former racist in chief proclaiming, “there’s good people on BOTH sides!” As that would be full bll$h1t! But mitch is so correct, when he says that ‘the blame being roughly “equal” as “Nonsense” – but with one MAJOR difference, Its israel whom is the Oppressor, and i’m pretty sure that was NOT how he intended our interpretation! Makes it no less the absolute truth, however!!
TODOS SOMOS PALESTINA🇵🇸🇵🇸. VIVA PALESTINA
cono Palestine la viva Israel
@REAL BLACKS KNOW THE TRUTH VIVA PALESTINA, LA JUSTICIA PREVALECERA🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸
If Netanyahu doesn’t listen, why has over $700 million been approved? Which country is running which country?
Biden’s position, on this as well as any other matter, is whatever China tells him.
Still trolling on behalf of Trump I see
Joe Biden Needs to continue to push and NOT try to get republicans who just want to obstruct. Keep Biden accountable. Money and jobs to people. Less money for defense corporations and more to people who need it! Get rid of filibuster! Green New Deal! Forgive student loans debt!!!
Biden is repeating Obama’s foreign affairs mistakes. America cannot afford to ignore or appease international conflicts.
Supporting a notorious criminal like Netahyanu can’t be explained, let alone defended. Even a good Jewish boy like me can see that.
Meanwhile children are being killed. A lot of children.
Come on!!! A cease fire has to be observed by both sides! Is Hamas ready? They are the ones racking up the conflict daily and then try to play the victim…. 😂😂😂
Always glad to see Ben Rhodes consulted on these things. He is so knowledgeable about foreign affairs, knowledgeable about how the White House functions and from his years of working in communications he knows how to explain things in the quickest most straightforward way possible if that’s the goal.
Jesus loves and cares about you so much so repent so That we all make it to heaven.
Like so more people can see this
When hamas runs out of rockets, the cease fire begins.
This is so so so sad and heart breaking where is ALLAH now when his beings need him the most that proves it there is no GOD on this earth people should start praying to aliens they might have a better chance for help with space lasers 🤬
This battle is not ours it’s the Lords.😇
All likes are manufactured. Nobody likes propaganda news MSDMC 🤮🤮🤮
