The Biden Administration is setting the stage for tacitly endorsing Israel’s war against Gaza by remaining publicly silent until, ultimately, they finally come out in favor of a ceasefire. But it’ll only happen after Gaza is destroyed and its Palestinian inhabitants have been driven out into the desert.

Sandals Gaza Resort? You mean a Trump-brand property, don’t you?
One thing Team Biden (aka “The Stumblebums”) hasn’t figured out/admitted/accepted? If Trump gets blocked, it’s an automatic L for the democrats. So many people voted for Biden in 2020 solely because he wasn’t Trump. If DeSantis or Haley win the nomination (by whatever means), a whole lot of Biden “um, supporters, I guess” are not going to be voting for him. It’s like the Batman and the Joker.
I am amazed that Biden botched the cease fire opportunity to be presidential. Mainly because, jeez, the law of averages says that, just by dumb luck, Biden should, at least once in a while, get something right. Does he have Frank Burns on staff? I know Larry Linville is dead, but it’s really the only thing I can think of to explain this uninterrupted streak of unmitigated failures and asterisk-qualified mild successes.
I read today that they do NOT want to send the Ghazan women and children to the desert: Israel and the US plan to offer some sub-Sahel African countries money to take in all the women and children and maybe the elderly men.
