I don't see how Biden would look weak but that's beside the point, it's when/where and how to apply pressure to a politician to bring them more in line with your values, what you want out of them. Accepting the consequences of that is part of the process.Ok, let's game this out.
Biden applies MAX pressure on Israel right now.
Israel says "Ok, we're going even harder."
Biden looks weaker as Israel defies him.
Trump wins re-election.
Trump says, "let the J-DAMS fall like rain in Palestine."
Palestine gets wiped out.
Any questions?
If Biden doesn't move, Trump gets elected and is worse then it is what it is, it's on the democrats to figure out why Trump won, not blame the constituency. Blaming the constituency also breeds contempt which doesn't help anything.
And also, Palestine is already being wiped out. It could get worse but it's also horrific and dire as is, that's why people are mad in the first place. That's a big part of why a group like Hamas is in power and committing terrorist acts.
