You seem to be under the impression that the strike was about safety, it was not. It was about sick days.

It was about both. You can repeat your narrative as many times as you want, doesn't change the fact that you're lying.

Israel is neither genocidal nor an apartheid state,

False. It's by definition a case of both.

this is total hyperbole

Wrong again.

your warped redefinitions of these terms

Those aren't my definitions. They are those of the Genocide Convention and South African Apartheid survivors.

Biden is now putting sanctions on those who go too far in Israel

Nope. He's frozen assets of a handful of civilian murderers from the West Bank, but is still supporting the Israeli government genocide with weapons, funding and lying about the extent of their atrocities.

The comment I was responding to wanted Biden to throw Israel under the bus

Israel IS the bus and he's throwing his own re-election prospects under it. He's already alienated significant portions of crucial battleground states like Michigan and he's hemorrhaging support from every voter who doesn't consider massacring civilians the cost of doing business.

the Republicans that would replace him due to the financial consequences of a national rail strike.

Again, a purely fictional hypothetical invented to excuse the ongoing gross violations of labor rights by some of his favorite owner donors.

I swear you Biden stans are just as blind to the many faults of your Dear Leader as the Trump cult sometimes 🤦

Israel has not been found guilty of violating either statute, keep repeating it like a mantra but it doesn't make it any more true. 21% of Israel's population is Arab/Palestinian and they have full legal citizenship rights. Pretty odd for an, "apartheid state." Israel is not attempting to destroy Palestinians in whole or in part, they are responding to an attack by a belligerent nation and going to great lengths to select legal targets in response even if they have significant collateral damage. It's clear this is about self-defense and not racial based punishment, despite your uncharitable portrayal.

I swear you Biden stans are just as blind to the many faults of your Dear Leader as the Trump cult sometimes 🤦

Biden is the best president we've had in a long time and I'm tired of Hamas stans criticizing him for supporting our allies against unprovoked terrorist attacks. Supporting our allies in a time of crisis is the right thing to do.
