    If Biden attacks Iran, he is at fault for starting a war. He’s the commander in chief. If he doesn’t attack Iran, he’s not at fault, because he did not start a war.

    I don’t understand how that’s complicated.

      Biden told Netanyahu he would not be involved in a direct war with Iran, so unless Iran attacks the US directly, Biden should be fine.

        Well, except for the votes he’s already losing by supporting Netanyahu’s existing genocide.

          Why are you changing the subject instead of responding to what I said?

            We’re talking about Biden losing votes if he starts a war with Iran. He will not lose the votes that he would have lost if he started a war with Iran, but he is not “fine.” He is still losing votes by supporting Netanyahu’s existing genocide.

            If you don’t like hearing that genocide is unpopular, you need to hear it.

              You boys want to see 2 million dead Palestinians and a war with Iran?

              By all means, help Trump get back into office.

                Biden should stop supporting genocide if he wants to win. He is losing votes because he supports it.

                You would rather support genocide and lose than abandon genocide under any circumstances.

                  I think you are the one who supports genocide, not me, but okay.

                    Wouldn’t be the first time this thread you’ve decided that opposition to genocide is support for genocide.
