    Just wondering what he would tell if Turkey killed PKKs leaders who are under the protection of US in Iraq and Syria at the moment.

    Biden is just talking shit to cover up his own ineffectiveness at foreign policy. How he advised Obama in how to handle the middle east when he was VP is a good indicator at how useless he is at it. When people thought the region couldn’t get any worse, that team made it worse.

    How he has handled Ukraine is another indicator; trickle feeding weapons to Ukraine because he is afraid of Putin, when if he had just given what was needed up front Ukraine could have ended the war already. Biden fumbling around like a cub bear playing with its dick, has allowed Russia to get their shit together when initially if equipped as requested by them, Ukraine could have pushed Russia out in the first year and a half. And now the Institute for the Study of War is sticking needles in Biden’s bullshit that long range weapons won’t do much (they in fact say that well place long range hits can change the outcome of the war). Biden is terrified at Putin’s toothless red lines. Funny how he can open the flood gates to Israel in terms of weapons, whatever they want, but not to Ukraine.

    Don’t get me wrong, I absolutely think Trump is a putz and his ignorance and stupidity are to be feared if he were to become president again. But Biden is by no means a great leader, not even close. He is/was merely better than his dog shit opponent.

  3. Harris also made a statement:

    [Statement by Vice President Harris on the Death of Hassan Nasrallah](https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2024/09/28/statement-by-vice-president-harris-on-the-death-of-hassan-nasrallah/)

    >Hassan Nasrallah was a terrorist with American blood on his hands. Across decades, his leadership of Hezbollah destabilized the Middle East and led to the killing of countless innocent people in Lebanon, Israel, Syria, and around the world. Today, Hezbollah’s victims have a measure of justice.

    >I have an unwavering commitment to the security of Israel. I will always support Israel’s right to defend itself against Iran and Iran-backed terrorist groups such as Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis.

    >President Biden and I do not want to see conflict in the Middle East escalate into a broader regional war. We have been working on a diplomatic solution along the Israel-Lebanon border so that people can safely return home on both sides of that border. Diplomacy remains the best path forward to protect civilians and achieve lasting stability in the region.

  4. If Iran ever had a play against Israel, it lost it in less than two weeks. Lebanon will likely shake off Hezbollah’s influence.

  5. Just a day earlier, Biden was trying to pressure Israel into a 21 day sham of a “ceasefire” so Hezbollah could regroup and re-arm, and was proudly announcing that the US wouldn’t share intel on Hezbollah w/ Israel anymore. Now he wants to pat them on the back for basically telling him to shove it.
    I wish he’d stop listening to the extreme leftists w/ TikTok brain rot and start listening to the majority of Americans…including his own Dem voting base, which *overwhelmingly* rejected the “ceasefire” nonsense in the Dem primary. I was one of those primary voters, at the time endorsing his support of Israel against the crazy extreme of his party. But in the past few months, he keeps appeasing those extremists, then tries to join in Israel’s victory party that he actively attempted to thwart.
    Good job Israel, and shame on you, Biden.

  6. Not the type of justice that could have been achieved with that ceasefire the West has been calling for.
