This is of course entirely accurate. If you've lost your mind and forgotten who Netanyahu is.
But you haven't because you say, "Biden refuses to use his leverage, even though he has admitted in an interview that it was “reasonable” to conclude that Netanyahu is prolonging the war for his own political benefit."
Joe Biden is an enabler but the US is not "the main obstacle to peace in Palestine".
I'm of the opinion that an individual with the explicit intent to commit genocide is the main obstacle, regardless of who is supporting them.
Joe "If Israel didn't exist we'd have to invent it" Biden explicitly wants a genocide. And let's be clear, without the US arms, and the US carrier fleet sitting in the med, Israel wouldn't have the balls to do shit.
The US is more than complicit and I wouldn't be surprised at all if we found out down the line that this was all orchestrated by the US.
That's because of the need for an ally / military presence in the middle east. It has nothing to do with Gaza.
I'm glad you're here doing Mao's work. Otherwise the "pro-empire" folks would have an uninhibited platform.
Israel's need for some type of displacement/genocide to exist predates the current prime minister. Remove him, and nothing changes.
One is a country, one is an individual, to say that any individual is more important to the war than the United States is the literal definition of Great Man Theory (i.e. childish nonsense).
This is without getting into other considerations like how Netanyahu is a scapegoat for faux-progressives who want to deflect away from how this genocide has enthusiastic support from many powerful institutions within Israel. It is an Israeli project much more than Netanyahu's personal project.
P.S. Assassinating Putin wouldn't end the war in Ukraine either (nor would assassinating Zelensky or Biden)
Without US enabling Israel they wouldn't be able to wage war on Gaza and Netanyahu wouldn't be able to stay in power.
Therefore, the US is still the main obstacle.
Today, Biden could:
- End all U.S. military support for Israel
- Veto any bill that contains one cent of funding for Israel
- Publically call a genocide a genocide
- Direct U.S. agencies to cancel contracts with companies that work with Israel, citing existing U.S. human rights laws
- Join the ICJ case against Israel
- Arrest Netanyahu's son Yair, who's just chilling in Miami
- Direct the National Guard to protect anti-genocide protesters
- Clean house at the State Department and other NatSec agencies to fire the people who have supported this genocide most vociferously
- Use the vast overseas surveillance power of the U.S. to document Israeli atrocities
How quickly would this stop?
And that's not even considering options like a decapitation strike on the Israeli government, which should absolutely be on the table to stop a genocide.
Still gotta vote blue no matter who guys. Genocide Joe is the MOST PROGRESSIVE PRESIDENT OF OUR LIFETIME.
What, these people are complicit in a genocide and shouldn't be supported? You're just giving your vote to Trump then!
