Thank you. Few readers make comments. Could it be because the aid to Israel flows through the military, and who can influence the US military? Joe Biden? What we see is a few brave younger congresspersons speaking out and for the rest a sickening powerlessness, combined with rationalizations, such as in a recent WH press conference in reply to question "is Palestine a state?" WH answer: "I’m not in a position to debate the legalities from up here." In other words, Palestine has no right of self-defense?

Status Quo Joe is not only seriously out of touch on this issue he is complicit in war crimes and crimes against humanity. Most of our Congress is as well. Over 300 House members (including 125 Democrats) recently signed a letter demanding no conditions on aid to Israel. The craven response from the Biden administration only accelerates the complete breakdown of the MSM’s pro-Israel narrative. Just like Black Lives Matter was fueled by cell phone videos, so are the videos of Israel’s bombing of the Israeli-controlled Gaza concentration camp fueling a Palestinian Lives Matter movement.

Faced with an out of touch administration and complicit Congress support for the BDS movement seems to be the best avenue for American citizens to register their disgust with this policy.
