    The Israeli lobby and PR machine is going into overdrive over these protests. It must be working. How can we support them?

            That’s true. Historically, America has always been in support of Israel. Democrats support Israel, and Republicans support Israel and push for an active war with Iran.

              The democrats are smart enough to know that it’s not a good look to be rooting for more violence, but they are still materially interested in supporting Israel’s domination in the region.

              It’s only meaningfully different if all you care about is aesthetics.

                  I’m aware of Trumps remarks, thank you.

                  Eradication of Palestinians is happening regardless of Biden’s ‘stern’ words. The only material difference between Biden and Trump is their public remarks on the matter, either way Israel conducts themselves the way they want without meaningful repercussions.

                  That’s the definition of aesthetic.
