    USA is backing israel government

    "Following the eruption of the Israel–Hamas war, the United States began to send warships and military aircraft into the Eastern Mediterranean and supplying Israel with ammunition and military equipment.

    The US stated that Israel would receive “whatever it needs” to support a counteroffensive against the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip. It also promised more military aid to Israel. On 20 October, President Biden announced that he had asked Congress for $14 billion in additional aid."

      It’s not Biden’s fault that the leader of Israel is a far right psychopath. The Israeli people still deserve protection from Hamas and Iranian terrorists.

        His fault is supporting and aiding a far right psychopath in a genocide. It has been said left and right that the indiscriminate bombing of gaza will only breed more terrorist extremists.

          No. Biden is supporting protection on Israelis. The Israelis need to oust Netanyahu. Stop pushing russian narratives and use common sense.

            US foreign policy on Israel has helped maintain this violence for decades. The US supports Israel for political and economic reasons, it is not for the protection of Israeli people. If the US wanted Israel to be safe they would do more to prevent violence in the area instead of simply arming Israel and enriching defense companies.

              And also Iranian policy has helped Hamas carry out violent terrorism against Israelis for decades. Can’t you see that all of the civilians, Palestinian and Israeli are the victims of their leadership?

              Biden supports the protection of Israeli people from Hamas and Iranian terrorists. Netanyahu is an elected psychopath, but the people still deserve to be protected.

                  They ABSOLUTELY deserve to be protected. All of the civilians, Palestinian and Israeli deserve to be protected from the Hamas/Netanyahu regimes.

            No, he is supporting his own interests, like every other politician. It is not a Russian narrative, it is a well documented fact. Netanyahu is the one that is funding Hamas, so he can justify his actions. Just like Hilary made Trump a Republican candidate, so they would have an easier win. Or why US government has a long history of arming the terrorists in Middle East, just so they can justify a war afterwards. Iran is a great example of this.

              How does trying to contain Netanyahu helping Biden’s interest? It’s absolutely NOT.
