Obama drew a line, Biden loudly squeaked it wouldn’t work and the only way to deal with Israel is unconditional support even if they’re committing genocide…
Obama’s line got them to stop.
Biden giving them a blank check led to this current situation.
Kamala takes AIPAC money too, but she won’t be as bad as Biden has been.
Drew a line where? Did israel stop violating the Geneva convention with their settlements in the west bank during Obamas presidency?

Shit wasn’t great, but it didn’t go anywhere near as far as what’s happening now.

It’s hard to summarize 8 years of shit, but that article does a better job than I’m willing to do.
Obama just told them to do the Genocide a bit more quietly. And gave israel $38 billion to continue terrorizing the West Bank and Gaza.
Obama says $38 billion Israel aid package to help ensure security
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Barack Obama said on Wednesday that a new $38 billion aid package will help ensure Israel can defend itself from threats, commenting in a statement on the 10-year memorandum of understanding (MOU) between the two nations. “Both Prime Minister (Benjamin) Netanyahu and I are confident that the new MOU will make a significant contribution to Israel’s security in what remains a dangerous neighborhood,” Obama said.
Thanks Obama.
This is unimportant now, okay? The important thing now is to decide whether it’s going to be a Dem or a Republican that will be luxuriously funding Israel’s genocide for the next four to eight years.
Yes, yes… much important.
Several things can be important and require action simultaneously.
This was made 5 years ago!
If something is drawn it must be true!
