Standing by and watching a genocide take place isn't all that admirable in my opinion.

It looks like the Biden regime has already jumped on it. Apparently all it ever took was a phone call. The mass murderers have called off the genocide and are pulling out of Khan Younis.

US aren't merely standing by and watching, they are enabling it actively.

Yeah but getting involved means being bombed to hell by NATO, so governments are not keen on that. Even indirect involvement like the Yemeni blockade effected in this. In case of Iran it might even spark a world war.

I mean the Houthis weren't, but there's only so much you can do when the US has two aircraft carriers and implications next to you.
