      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.

          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.

              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.

              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.
