An increasing number of Americans want Joe Biden to encourage Israel to stop military actions in Gaza; and Mr. Biden’s handling of the situation is now down to its lowest levels yet.

In the poll, conducted before Iran’s drone and missile attack on Israel, there wasn’t much clamor among the U.S. public for U.S. military action against Iran, were Iran to strike Israel. More would instead have the U.S. support Israel’s next actions.

    Centrists will just assume they’re all Russian shills, like they do with anyone that dislikes genocide.

      Shill or not, the borderline obsessive demand for this particular linguistic compliance feels like it isn’t done in good faith

      All those “centrists” who checks notes want to avoid an objectively worse person for both Gaza as well as our own country. Right.

        Rising numbers of Americans say Biden should encourage Israel to stop Gaza actions

        How is this inconsistent with wanting to avoid an objectively worse person?

        “Stop supporting genocide” is not the same thing as “I support Trump,” no matter how much pro-genocide centrists try to conflate the two.
