Speaking from the Oval Office starting at 8 p.m. ET, Biden made the case to Americans that it’s vital to both global and U.S. national security to assist Israel as it responds to terror attacks by Hamas as well as to continue help for Ukraine as it fends off Russian invaders.
“Hamas and Putin represent different threads but they share this in common: They both want to completely annihilate a neighboring democracy,” Biden said, referring to the extremists and Russia’s president.
Biden said he knows the conflicts can seem distant and Americans might be asking why it’s vital to U.S. security interests that Israel and Ukraine succeed.
“History has taught us that when terrorists don’t pay a price for their terror, when dictators don’t pay a price for their aggression, they cause more chaos and debt and more destruction,” Biden said. “They keep going – and the cost and the threats to America and the world keep rising.”
Vote for Trump then.
Are you implying that Trump (or any conservative) wouldn’t also bend over backwards to Netanyahu? The US is an Israeli puppet state
I’d wager they’re implying a “never Biden” stance is basically a vote for Trump in a contest between the two. In reality, Biden has clearly told Israel to restrain themselves and gotten them to agree to allow in humanitarian aid, whereas Trump would have them carpet-bombing Gaza
Exactly, he was the one who moved US embassy to Jerusalem and recognizing it as capital of Israel, even though he was advised to not do it.
He also claims he killed Soleimani (nearly starting war with Iran) because Nethanyahu asked him. Of course Nethanyahu won’t admit it so we don’t know, but I tend to think it probably is true as he would never give anyone credit, and claiming that doesn’t save him.
Every policy he did in his 4 years was pro Israel. Things he didn’t need to do and only were stirring the pot.
Now he magically supposedly supports Palestinians, calling Hezbollah smart. Interestingly when there seems to be similar position in Kremlin.
No, I am implying that your other choice is Trump, which is infinitely worse. So, not voting for Biden is giving one vote for Trump.
Could you help me understand how the failure to increment one sum is somehow the active incrementing of another sum?
If Candidate A has one apple and Candidate B has one apple, I’m having a hard time seeing how choosing to not give either candidate an apple somehow results in either one gaining their second apple. I could use a walk-through of that one.
I see we’re still pretending those are the only two options.
Unless you have ranked choice voting where you are, they are the only two options. Voting for a 3rd party in most of the US is the same thing as just not voting for whichever of the two main candidates you prefer against the other.
I wasn’t aware the presence of ranked-choice voting somehow gated the presence of other parties or candidates on a given ballot, let alone one’s ability to simply choose to abstain. You’ll have to explain that one for me as it seems indistinguishable from magic.
It’s interesting that you highlight two other potential options immediately after asserting these options simply don’t exist.
It’s similarly interesting you seem to equate choosing to not vote with actively indicating which candidate best represents your interests; you seem to pretend there is in every scenario an establishment candidate one would prefer. Have you considered the entire reason for the existence of parties outside the establishment duo is a stark departure from the values of those parties?
