Hardly surprising…

Biden has always seen Israel as an investment which produces the best returns for U.S. interests.

In 1986, when he was a member of the U.S. Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, he opposed the sale of weapons to Saudi Arabia because they were not able to become “agents of .U.S interests in the Persian Gulf region.”

He stressed that his opposition to the weapons sale was not about whether the Saudis were good guys or bad guys, but about the ability of the Saudis to help advance and secure U.S. interests.

He emphasized that the “naked self-interest of the U.S.” should always guide their Middle East policy, and that his support for Israel is situated within that self-interest. As he bluntly explained: “Were there not an Israel, the United States of America would have to invent an Israel to protect her interest in the region.”

Israel’s formal position is not the elimination of Palestinian Arabs.

Zionism was from the very beginning a settler colonial enterprise. Yes genocidal attitudes towards Jews may have been used to promote the idea, but the end goal was always possession of land.

In its initial stage, Zionism was conceived by its pioneers as a movement wholly depending on mechanical factors: there is a country which happens to be called Palestine, a country without a people, and, on the other hand, there exists the Jewish people, and it has no country. What else is necessary, then, than to fit the gem into the ring, to unite this people with this country? The owners of the country [the Turks] must, therefore, be persuaded and convinced that this marriage is advantageous, not only for the [Jewish] people and for the country, but also for themselves.

The difference is that Israel is considered an occupying power and has responsibilities under international law as such.

Rabbi Eliyahu Mali and his Yeshiva are sponsored by Benjamin Netanyahu’s government

Yes it is, but actually doing some thing and staging some Hollywood air drop nonsense are two different things.

They’re doing it because voters in Michigan and to a lesser extent in other states are refusing to vote for Biden. This has very little to do with preventing Palestinian deaths.

Children are starving to death, how many more will die before this pier gets built?

Hamas who walked away from the peace talks because Israel wouldn’t agree to the destruction of Israel?

I think the purpose of the article is to question why the people of Indonesia would vote for someone connected to Suharto. I don’t think the article talks about the people of West Papua because they would have had very little influence in the result of the election. The majority of people who voted in this election however would have direct memory of the repression Indonesia experienced under Suharto.
