Americans’ ardent support for Israel is palpable in poll after poll showing far greater sympathy for the Jewish state than for Palestinians.
It’s evidenced in the vote in the last U.S. Congress to top up American funding for Israel’s missile-defence system: a lopsided result of 420 to 9.
So that American backing is not in question; it’s a decades-long reality and was just reinforced with the blood-curdling massacre of Israeli civilians by Hamas militants on Oct. 7.
What’s less certain is the reaction from one important constituency as Israel expands its counter-offensive in Gaza and as the death toll mounts among Palestinian civilians.
We’re talking about the U.S. left. It’s virtually the only place in American politics where there might be a debate — over what’s acceptable in war, and about a path back to peace.
And signs are emerging of Democrats wanting to pressure Israel into abiding by certain limits in its operation.

Don’t refer to the entirety of the US government as “center left”. It makes you look like an idiot.
The sitting President is listed next to every war. If you can’t read a table, better sit this one out.
No he isn’t. I guess you didn’t scroll far enough.
Maybe verify what you think before stating it as fact.
Still not scrolling far enough I see.
Ah well. You do you I guess.

No, I’ve been really clear.
Article : Democrats’ growing sympathy for Palestinians unlikely to shape near-term policy
The comment I replied to said, “Dont be too confident, there’s a Centre Left Majority and support for Israel is dwindling” (My paraphrase)
I replied and said that Centre Left governments are still massive war mongers (“the most violent government”), and have just sailed 2 aircraft carriers into theatre.
you questioned that, which is cool
I posted a link to a list on wikipedia of all the US interventions in the 21st century.the data show the US to be involved in many wars. Its more than anyone else, for anyone who wanted to check my facts - but no one did. It’s also obvious from the wikipage, that not every war was prosecuted by a Centre left government - (which was never the claim, for the idiots at the back).
chaos ensued, because Team USA showed up, did their patriotic duty of bullying the dissenter

I thought I was talking with adults. My bad.
That’s a mistake that nobody talking with you will ever make.
