He's the fucking president. He can make the ceasefire happen immediately.

He doesn't need to "call for a ceasefire" he is the ceasefire.
No he cannot.

Biden is not the king, emperor, fuhrer, Supreme commander or whatever of Israel.

The US and other countries can attempt to pressure Netanyahu and Israel to ceasefire. They can't make them.

Some of yall are really uninformed in thinking the PotUS can make Israel do something it doesn't want to do. Pressure is the best we can do without going to war ourselves.

He is president of the United States though which makes him the most powerful leader in the world.

Doesn't mean he can order another sovereign state to do something. That only happens when pressure is applied.

I can't tell if this is a serious post or not given some seriously have a romanticized idea of what the PotUS can do.

Short of war, the PotUS can only attempt to pressure another country to do something. Israel does not have to listen to the PotUS or the US demands. Israel also has other countries it can turn to for support if the US dips out. So the idea that, short of a war, the US can make Israel do something, is just not true.

Online for at least the last 10 years, blue hair used in a political context has almost solely been conservatives freaking out about liberals

I would love for Biden to take a stronger stance against Israel. But the US just straight up standing against them entirely would not make Israel pack it up and leave Palestine alone.

I always used it to refer to Twitter Activists who usually have their hair dyed in ridiculously garish colors but I got modded because apparently it's used against Trans people nowadays.

The point is that it should be retired now since it has far more actually negative applications than positive or joking ones.

Tbh at the very least Biden probably shouldn't be bypassing congress in order to send billions of dollars worth of weapons to Israel.

Quoting the secretary general of Doctors Without Borders at the UN Security Council:

We are appalled by the willingness of the United States to use its powers as a permanent Council member to obstruct efforts to adopt the most evident of resolutions: one demanding an immediate and sustained ceasefire.

Three times this Council has had an opportunity to vote for the ceasefire that is so desperately needed and three times the United States has used its veto power, most recently this Tuesday. A new draft resolution by the United States ostensibly calls for a ceasefire. However, this is misleading at best.

This Council should reject any resolution that further hampers humanitarian efforts on the ground and leads this Council to tacitly endorse the continued violence and mass atrocities in Gaza. The people of Gaza need a ceasefire not when practicable, but now. They need a sustained ceasefire, not a temporary period of calm. Anything short of this is gross negligence.

Democrats want to appease Israel. They want that sweet brib-lobbyist money and don't want Israel to start using their massive influence to help Republicans.

You're not wrong, but you are being reductive. The United States holds tremendous leverage over Israel and we can apply it in a number of ways that would all but guarantee Israel acquiesces.

Pressure does not mean any country try has to adhere to it. Especially Israel which definitely has options.

You are completely misinformed or hopped on Murica propaganda in thinking the PotUS is some supreme powerful person who can single handedly make an entire country as rich and powerful as Israel to do what the US wants it to do.

I'm not at all.

You are correct that the US has some leverage over the billions of dollars we keep sending them.

For the record, I don't support the US giving Israel so much weapons and money. What I'm only stating is that the US stopping isn't the magical cure for Palestine some seem to think it is.

What people have twisted is the idea that if we stop giving Israel weapons and money, that it somehow forces Israel to ceasefire. Or the even worse delusion, the PotUS has some kinda of authority over Israel, or some surefire pressure that would make them ceasefire beyond war.

Israel has options. Especially given the major fact that the US is extremely unstable right now.

I imagine if we were to suddenly cut funding to Israel it would cause an acceleration where Israel tries their hardest to complete their genocide before the funds they already have run out.

I don't like this trend of calling people with silver hair "blue hairs."

Blue is sexy and only achievable through dye or a wig. Gray is natural, but not sexy.

Yes, and I'm sure wolves feel the same way. It's not an ideal color for human beings.

Come to think of it, if they're color-blind, why do cats, dogs, and wolves come in such a variety of colors? Shouldn't they all be hues of black, white, and gray?

It is nice to hear the smattering of cheers and applause in the crowd. Surely the makeup of the crowd is largely "moderate" liberals, and even as recently as a few years ago I wouldnt expect any support from a jill biden crowd regarding Palestine.

Kept thinking this was a Jill Stein rally and was disappointed that it's yet another instance of people holding Biden to a standard they won't aggressively use with any other presidential candidate.

Edit: Apparently Jill Stein has demanded a ceasefire before so that could explain why. She's still a spoiler candidate, whether it's her intention or not.
