    This analysis, I pretty much exactly agree with. That all makes it notable that under Biden they put sanctions on settlers for the first time in history and didn’t veto a security council attempt to reign in Israel for the first time I’m aware of.

    Is that enough? No. Does it excuse 5 months of exactly what you’re describing, is it any help to someone whose child starved to death while Biden was gradually coming around in his own time, does it guarantee that anything will happen in the future that isn’t just more of the same grim neoliberal encouragement and funding for the slaughter of the browns? No, no, and no.

    Are those still relevant facts, though? Yes. Are you posting all this out of any good well intentioned concern for the well being of the Palestinians, or with consideration of the fact that Trump explicitly wants to go in and finish the genocide instead of this limp-wristed-too-late opposition Biden is giving? That one, only you can answer.

      I appreciate you taking the time/effort to do the fact checking on these accounts (here and in other threads). I try when I can, but my time is limited by 10,000 things vying for it.

      FWIW, that account is 2 3 weeks old and exists on an instance that has been springing up trolls left and right because it has wide-open registrations.
