    The problem is politics of course. Biden and the Democrats need the “Jewish vote” and their PAC dominates. We’ve already promised for decades now that we’d assist with the defense of Isreal and so they feel forced to follow through and pander to the Jewish community.

    What SHOULD happen is we say “your DEFENSE is assured, we will continue to assist with the iron dome and whatever anti-rocket technology is required to DEFEND your citizens. We WILL NOT assist with the INVASION of Palestine.”

    But no… That’s too much to ask apparently…
