    It’s almost like if the US just turns its back on Israel, we’d lose our leverage to press a negotiated agreement

    No kidding huh, I can’t believe people don’t see this. You want to influence Israel? You can’t do that if you cut off communication and shun them.

      Not continuing to provide them with weapons of war while they are actively committing genocide is not cutting off communication and shunning them.

        • Incorrect. We already have a law to not ship weapons to people who are credibly accused of what Israel is credibly accused of. As the Chief Executive Biden could simply follow that law which is well within his power to execute.

              “It’s Republicans’ fault that the US keeps sending weapons to Israel” doesn’t make sense when Republicans only control the House and Biden has to sign any bills they want passed.
