    That pause is evidence itself that he knew they were committing war crimes with our military aid. Which he did not pause even 90% of. He paused airplane bombs. Everything else from Bullets to Artillery shells was still getting sent the entire time.

    And your statement is false, Bush got them to remove settlements. I was just talking about previous democrats but if we want to include all presidents then there are certainly some who have done more to slow down Israel. For example in the 1990’s there was the Oslo Accords.

    Performative actions do not absolve you of illegally supplying weapons to a criminal regime.

      So your contention is that

      1. Although Biden is the only president to actively contradict and issue sanctions against the Israeli government and its settlers for their colonization and war crimes,

      2. Biden’s the least active president to actively contradict and issue sanctions against the Israeli government and its settlers for their colonization and war crimes.

      Even though nobody else has contradicted Israel or issued sanctions and Biden has.

      You are confused.

        You are ignoring key issues I’ve brought up to continue your counter factual narrative. I’m used to dealing with this from Republicans. Getting this from Democrats is seriously disappointing.

          This is the historical narrative.

          You might not want to make up stores if you don’t want to be disillusioned.

            No it isn’t. You’re doing the same thing Trump’s supporters do and creating alternative facts.

              All the things I’m saying are correct.

              Biden was the first president to issue sanctions and directly contradict the Israeli government over civilian settlers and IDF war crimes and executions.

              I know that throws off your make-believe, but that’s the nature of the truth.

                Nope

                Nope Again.

                And Nope.

                Again. Performative sanctions on 3 people isn’t a consequence. And you cannot “contradict” someone committing a crime while you hand them the gun to do it. Next you’re going to tell me the wheel man at the bank robbery wasn’t part of the crew because he said mean things about the point man.

                  I know it makes you feel better to make things up when you don’t have a substantive rebuttal to biden’s sanctions and actions taken against Israel completely destroy your tantrum, but that doesn’t make the facts any less true.

                  I enjoy fiction though, keep at it.
