Today, a new generation of American students stand united, facing formidable forces invested in privileges rooted in oppression and determined to end the Israeli-made starvation and genocide in Gaza.
The Iranian "measured retaliation" has shown that the presence of Western forces in Arab countries isn't geared toward defending those nations, but rather serves as an advanced defense system primarily aimed at protecting "Israel".
It should come as no surprise if or when Biden ultimately endorses "Israel's" final faux investigation, absolving its army of any responsibility for the murder of the World Central Kitchen workers.
Netanyahu treats American advice like a buffet, cherry-picking what suits him and leaving the fallout of his actions for the US to clean up.
Absent of ending the genocide and lifting the 18-year-old Israeli blockade on Gaza, Biden’s floating pier, like the airdrop, is a waste of time and money.
Children, if alive, are still hungry and cold at home, watching through a broken window aid parcels parachuting from the skies alongside the roar of an American-made jet delivering 2000-pound bombs over their heads.
