This article talks about standing US law as well as the Biden policy, both requiring the US to not provide arms to Israel at this point, and this is exactly why you should never buy that he can’t do anything without congress. All he needs to do is simply execute an already existing law and hes the chief executive. It quite literally is his job to no longer allow any weapons from the US into Israel.
Same in the UK but we’ve only just done anything about it.
In all appearances a totally symbolic something with no real impact, so probably just pure public opinion management.
Well, as we provide Israel with only around 1% of their arms imports I think that we could only ever hope to make a political statement rather than having any real impact.
But but but moneyyyy!
US law requires him too…
But unfortunately when Biden said “no one is above the law” it was an obvious lie.
Under the Lehey law we can’t provide munitions to units committing war crimes. There’s an amendment that says if the US claims we don’t know exactly where the weapons go, the country needs to provide evidence and assurances it won’t go to those units.
Biden claims he can’t tell where US weapons end up, and there’s no evidence they’re used in war crimes. Except there’s evidence that US supplied weapons were used in war crimes.
And we’re not requiring them to do the legwork of documenting where those weapons are being used.
It’s blatant violation of the law, and people just ignore because trump is worse. Completely ignoring that Biden isn’t running against trump and in just a few months there’s no scenario Biden isn’t president.
But Biden won’t be held accountable, because he has the right letter by his name and too many Dems act like Republicans these days.
That’s because his talk doesn’t match his walk.
You know how Trump just shamelessly lies as easily as he breaths? Well Biden also massively lies, he’s just far more sophisticated at it than Trump (hardly a tall barrier, lets be honest) hence less obvious at it yet in the end you still see his the actual actions or the end result of them (when the deceit technique is to pass know impossible measures or just half of what’s needed and not the other requires half so those measures don’t actually do what it says on the tin) not matching his words.
Let’s hope Kamala is much less of a liar.
but his hands are tied, he just has to keep supporting genocide :(((((
Groups say a lot of things that make no sense.
