“No administration has helped Israel more than I have,” Biden said. “None. None, none. And I think Bibi should remember that. And whether he’s trying to influence the election, I don’t know but I’m not counting on that.”

    before a flaming hot war becomes a reality

    I’m giving you the benefit of the doubt and assuming you mean a wider conflict with ground armies clashing, and not that you mean there is no flaming hot war right now.

    Over 100,000 people in Gaza are dead or have been missing long enough to be presumed dead. Here in Lebanon 2,000 people are dead, almost all civilians, including 100 medical staff, a whole section of the city has been turned into embers, and 1/5th of the country is displaced in overfilled shelters.

    And by shelters I mean crumbling public schools with individual donations making up most of the shelter supplies.

    I don’t even know what my life will look like in one week, and I’m in a much better situation than others. The American political bickering in every corner of the internet (the place I go to for a quick escape) has been extra exhausting.

    This is worse than the July war in 2006, this is definitely a flaming hot war in my book.

      You are absolutely right and I should not be diminishing what’s happening. I’m just incredibly frustrated by the impotence of Biden, the willingness of Democrats to just carry water, and the unwillingness of Harris to to step up and do the right thing.
