Defiant Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu doubled down on opposition to Palestinian statehood, deepening the divide with Israel’s closest international allies, as cracks in his wartime “unity” government became increasingly evident.
Anger with Netanyahu is also increasingly visible on the streets, even though there is broad public support for the war. On Saturday, protesters gathered in Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, Caesarea and Kfar Saba, some calling for bolder action to secure the release of hostages, and others demanding the prime minister step down.
One in Jerusalem held a placard that read: “Mothers’ cry: we will not sacrifice our children in the war to save the rightwing.”
I don’t see why they continue to give weapons to Israel. Just cut them off.
Many US voters see Israel as the way to get to the end times, Judgement Day. Not doing whatever Israel wants is political suicide.
That we allow religion to hold such massive sway is such a point of shame for our species, and out countries.
Not only that, it’s also a complete crazy pants interpretation of the Christian Bible. US politics is held captive by lunatics.

That and the US military use Israel to test weapons in combat operations. The same idea is why they are so willing to aid Ukraine.
huh?

Perhaps I’m ignorant on that demographic, but aren’t the vast majority of those peoples voting Republican anyway?
A quick Google turned up these polls. It’s only 14% that voted for Biden, but since the US election is decided on single percentage points sometimes, that can make all of the difference.
