Biden lost 11% of dem support as well with his support for Israel.
meanwhile bleeding hearts are helping trump right now, not to mention are working towards effectively ending the state of israel which would be October 7 x1000
Not even close. Biden's team Israeli is pushing him to back an incredibly unpopular policy. They know it can't last, politico says that its weeks at most according to the insiders. I'd expect its not going to last that long.
You genuinely believe that tearing down Gaza walls and allowing Gazans to mix with general population of israel will not end in a massive bloodshed? Really?Not even close. Biden's team Israeli is pushing him to back an incredibly unpopular policy. They know it can't last, politico says that its weeks at most according to the insiders. I'd expect its not going to last that long.
Hezbollah is threatening to join now if it continues and world support for the US has tanked massively, especially amongst Muslim countries that were just recovering from the GWOT. This just clarifies that US foreign policy is always pretty much the same and that makes the world much less safe.
Israel has never been really threatened by Hamas, they have no army and even with a surprise they could only just barely get outside the prison walls for a day. They keep bragging about how great the Iron Dome is, so even the threat of homemade rockets isn't that serious.
What will be existential is only to the zionist movement. Its now tarred as a genocidal, racial supremacist movement with Jews now being arrested globally for protesting zionism.
The US is now actively taking part in the genocide. The pentagon confirms they are flying drones over Gaza and the US government debated and decided to send an extra $14 billion for bombs on Gaza. Those are moves of active participation.
The bigger question is whether Biden loses the youth vote and all the good will he was starting to accumulate and whether this dooms the dems. Same with Trudeau up here, is this going to damage his reelection hopes too?
Yes, I do believe that.
She'll push things as far as she can until she's destroyed her career, like the lawyers who worked for rump.

But about half of Jews don't back zionism and apartheid."Today, Arabs make up roughly 1.2 percent of the overall U.S. Population.
As of 2020, the core American Jewish population is estimated at 2.4% of the total US population."
One group is growing and the other group is pretty much static.
Political power comes with population growth.
It's ironic that many, maybe most, of the people who oppose Trump's Muslim ban were Jewish.

I didn't say it wasn't a major problem.
That's a fair point, but I've also never seen posts like this after any policy shift either.
Yes you have.
No, same here.
There is a correlation, but it isn't obvious or linear.
The Iraq protests were some of the largest anti-war protests ever.
I agree its hard to predict how big this will be in one year for the US election.
There is also the fact that the USA is so massively populous that a huge rally for anything simply means that a group of people are passionate about an issue - and that group of people can represent less than 1% of the general electorate or 60%.
This issue will split the dems and seriously hurt Biden's support.
