Comment on 'You're asking the accused ['Israel'] to investigate itself?'

  I think the us values the billion dollar arms contracts over preserving the quality of this investigation. It sucks because Biden can’t even be pressured with voting because the otherside has a worse stance.

    The other side will always have a worse stance on everything, that means you can never pressure the Dems. That’s not a good enough reason.

      You can pressure them 100% I’m not trying to stop you there. but I don’t think many people are not voting or changing their votes over this issue. I think the dems know this and know they don’t have to change their stance.

      Do you think this is a fair assessment?

        That’s fair, if they think they can risk it that’s on them.

        I’d hope they would cater to voters and try to win them over, but I guess this election isn’t too serious for them to care.

    That’s a fine attitude for penne ante stuff. But this is emergent and killing thousands of people right in front of us. We either pressure him or throw our values out the window anyways.
