    Really more of internal US politics than World, but the Biden justification of emboldening Hamas is enough to justify it.

    Better suited to Politics though.

      It’s about if a major world power will continue funding a genocide on the other side of the globe…

      Unless you’re making a joke that Israel is the 51st state, but even then, the people Israel is committing genocide against with US weapons aren’t American.

      It’s obviously a larger issue than just America.

        No, it’s about Biden arguing against a proposed policy from a United States Senator.

        This is all internal US Politics, but Biden’s justification is suficiently global.
