Biden Was Already Wobbly Due to Palestine Policy Even Before Debate Disaster

[Kareem Speaks]

By Kareem Raheem 

Yes, it’s true that President Biden’s disastrous performance in the debate against Donald Trump may have sealed his fate as a one-termer. However his campaign was already headed downhill given his blanket support for Netanyahu’s genocidal war against the Palestinians. 

This is no longer just retaliation for Hamas’ attack against Israel on Oct. 7, 2023 that led to 1,143 deaths, including 376 security forces and the capture of 251 people. How does President Biden justify sending 2,000 pound bombs to Netanyahu’s government while the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) continues to massacre Palestinians? An estimated more than 35,000 Palestinians have been killed. 

Netanyahu’s crimes are now well-known. They include bombing Palestinian hospital while the sick and injured are still there or going into hospitals and saying they were terrorists. How does the Israeli military make that determination while they’re shooting their on hostages at the same time?

Biden ships more weapons while Netanyahu engages in mass murder by preventing the adequate flow of food, water, medicines, and fuel. It’s as though Netanyahu’s trying to wipe out the Palestinians while pretending that he’s trying to eliminate Hamas. Anyone with common sense can see that it’s a lie. Many nations around the world don’t like what Netanyahu and Biden are doing to the Palestinians. 

He’s bombed Al-Shifa hospital. Netanyahu has ignored the U.N. Security Council’s resolution calling for a ceasefire. These are crimes against humanity. Will Netanyahu and Biden be held accountable?

Even Israeli citizens are tired of Netanyahu’s warmongering and they’re constantly in the streets demanding that he be removed as prime minister. They say he wants to prolong the war to postpone his own day of reckoning when he has to face the various criminal corruption charges against him.

Many Israelis whose family members remain in Hamas’ captivity think Netanyahu doesn’t care about them and that they’re expendable when compared to his own political survival agenda. 

Americans have been protesting for months in favor of a ceasefire. When Biden held a glitzy fund-raiser with Obama and Clinton there was a protest right inside and outside denouncing the massacre of Palestinians. 

Imagine, while Netanyahu is starving babies, the old and infirm, and elderly women, Biden Obama and Clinton are fund-raising so Biden can remain president and continue helping the warmonger Netanyahu. 

This is the kind of tone-deaf policy by Biden that had already made his re-election a daunting task.
