    So you think if Biden was so inclined to he could just say “no more support for Israel” and everyone would just happily go along with it because he’s president and everyone has to do what he says?

    Or would an administration with no majority in either the senate or the house maybe have trouble going against decades of policy and doctrine, to abandon its closest ally in an incredibly unstable and important region and put at risk American political and corporate interests in the area?

      YES

      It should never be difficult to do the right thing.
