in order to paint him as the almost sole driver of this illogical backing of Israel, similar to the way that centrists are trying to paint Netenyahu as the sole maniacal driver on the Israeli side (Israel is fine guys Netenyahu is just a crazy right winger guys, it’s like if Trump was in office, it’s not them guys come on).
Idk, I’m seeing more and more articles and podcasts lately really pinning things on Biden. Talking about him as this shameless lifelong Zionist who is going out of his way to propel this thing on his own, despite some sort of assumed silent administrative majority who apparently doesn’t want this. And like, Biden is a lifelong Zionist, that’s true. But it feels like an attempt to start the process of detaching Biden as a driving actor of the genocide from the Democratic Party and even the US apparatus more broadly, as a way of like setting the stage to salvage these institutions.
I’m seeing this sudden creep of perspective mostly from left/leftish sources though. Not exclusively. But it’s a little surprising.
Am I imagining this? Anyone else seeing this happen? Is Biden really exerting an undue influence on this situation that another steward of US hegemony in a moment of decline wouldn’t? Or is this a legitimate analysis of the situation, and the creep of perspective is actually a step in the right direction. What is going on
Biden isn’t the only zionist in the american government but he is the current lead zionist. He is not the only one in the government responsible for the genocide but he is the person who could do the most to stop it.
