I guess he litterally sending both drones and bombs, but I meant that Trump would order a direct strike. But you're right, that's not much different in the end, is it? The main difference is that Biden maintains some plausible deniability. "WE didn't kill anyone! We didn't know they would use these tools for genocide!". Maybe in some sense that IS worse.
Deep in my heart, I just hope both Trump and Biden get heart attacks before the elections kick off. Voters would get a fresh choice then.
I'm afraid that in our current political system, voters would get a fresh choice of candidates who would probably still send weapons to Israel. Somehow we need deeper political change.
When Trump was president suddenly all the atrocities of the Obama presidency weren't acceptable. Now that Biden is president it's all fine again. I don't know about you, but I'd rather a public that is paying attention and thus limiting the president from being able to facilitate genocide.
Things are changing, if slowly. People are paying attention, and they are pissed at Biden.
