    Biden is a self-admitted Zionist, isn’t he? It’s not a pejorative to him, or any establishment politician. It’s ironic considering Ireland and the Irish people have been vocally calling it a genocide since the beginning.

    Still, there are more proponents of a ceasefire on the Dem’s side than the Rep’s, especially down ballot. If the Dem’s capture both House and Senate, there might be enough noise to actually pressure towards a ceasefire. Go vote.

      I know he makes a big thing about being Irish and Ireland has a long history of viewing Israel’s actions as akin to the oppression they suffered under the British. So saying Irish and Zionist in the same sentence is almost like saying Ireland is part of Britain. Jaysus can you imagine how insulting that is 😆. Yet he just sat there and grinned.

      There might be more proponents on the Democrat side for a ceasefire… but let’s be realistic… the US isn’t going to stop Israeli aggression.
