    but she says donors want to see a full investigation of the Israeli allegations.

    both parties (except a few progressives) united to ban it till 2025.

    How is Biden literally responsible for everyone uniting on that point?

      He went around Congress to give billions to Israel, and to ban aid to UNRWA causing mass starvation

      Then Congress included both in the budget.

      Any other questions?

        Any comment on the fact that donors paying for aid to UNRWA wanted this, or that it was bipartisan and - as you just pointed out - it was Congress that put it in the budget?

        Why is everything all Biden’s fault, when you have already said in multiple points that other people were pushing for it also?

          Why is everything all Biden’s fault

          Because he’s the boss. The president is always considered the leader of their party while they’re in office. That’s why Truman said, “The buck stops here.”

          If an organization does something, the leader of that organization needs to accept responsibility or admit they’re an ineffective leader.

            He’s the leader of the party, but this had bipartisan support.

            I’m not saying he’s not responsible, just that they all are. Also he has to be careful with it being election year and being up against Trump.

          Why is everything all Biden’s fault

          Because before it was included in the budget, Biden went around Congress to do both via executive order.

          And I think the other bit is you’re confused about what “donors” meant, like are you thinking it’s private citizens donating money and the government now won’t let them?

          I’m not trying to be insulting, but from context that seems to be your impression
