    Note not just the settlement breaks international law. The occupation itself since 1967 is illegal and has to end asap. Even before the Israeli invasion, Gaza was already occupied continueing after 2005 as Israel controlled all borders, movement, money and civil registries. The Palestinians have the right to resist the occupation. A right that is continously denied by allegedly rules based countries like the US, UK and Germany.

        The US is a bipartisan supporter of Israel, its illegal annexations and its genocide. Biden embraced again, that he is a Zionist and will continue full support for Israel. AIPAC and other Israeli Lobby/Foreign influence groups bankroll both parts of the aisle.

        The reason why the Republicans are doubling down so much for now is because it helps them stir up racism and help disenfranchise the progressive left from the Democrats, because they get Biden to publicly double down on his Zionism.

          That’s true but Trump will violate the few remaining Shibboleths just as did when he recognised Jerusalem as the capital as well as the annexation of the Golan Heights. I’m fairly certain he will sanction the ethnic cleansing of Gaza.
