“As the president of the United States, you have power to change the course of history, and the responsibility to save lives right now,” the staffers wrote.

    To be fair, i don’t think Israel is going to do a cease fire even if we yeet all the aid and support we promised them. Netty has been wanting this fight for… ages.

      Not too sure on that, US has many ways to force cease fires as good as starting coups.

      I think if we had a president and congress that wanted it done, it would be done.

        Considering how well those coups worked out, I’d really like for that sad chapter of US history to stay history, as much as I despise Bibi’s reactionary government.

          Well, IMO the coups did what was required, same in latin america.

          It stopped the political party that was going to rule and chaos would ensue.

          Due to party plans of interfering with US corporations and allies.

            They did meet short term goals but the long term blowback is indicative that it’s not worth it from a cold strategic perspective even when not factoring in the ideological hypocrisy

    Taking from my comment on the other community where you posted this:

    Biden asked for one and reported Netanyahu said no.

    The headline sounds like he’s just dismissing his staffers

        I mean… Isn’t the point of the headline to concisely represent the article? That’s the entire reason clickbait is considered bad.

          Yes, the information in the article is unimportant because the headline is cumbersome. /s

      You mean the headline is intentionally misleading to the point of misinforming people?

      It’s straight up journalistic malpractice the way they phrased it

          It doesn’t matter what the intent is here, the headline is misleading, which is poor journalist integrity. Both malice and ignorance can sink a ship.

            Intent is irrelevant. Biden’s comment and the staffer’s letter correlate (A relationship or connection between two things based on co-occurrence or pattern of change). It is implied (To make evident indirectly) that Biden is disregarding the wishes of the staffers. If you can’t comprehend this, I can’t help you read gooderer.

        State polls show he is tied or winning in some cases over biden.

        When certain two unnamed 3rd party people are included, numbers shift in an interesting way.

        For biden to win, polling needs to be couple points higher, not just tied.

        One year out, so… will be interesting to see how well polling works this time around.
