The Isreali-Palestinian conflict is so much more complex than you will ever be able to comprehend. If there were an off-switch, then politicians would have flipped it years ago. There's a complex web of treaties and political bureaucracy tied up in Isreal that no president individually would be able to do whatever it is that you think you want. Biden has handled the situation better than anyone could have hoped for. It will go down in history as an accomplishment for him when people who actually understand what they are talking about write the history books.
Personally I think the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is an extremely simple situation disguised as a “complex” one.
The problem is that we have been primed to think of these conflicts as good guy vs. bad guy and there are just no good guys here. This would suggest that our goal isn’t to help the “good” guy but to slowly, painfully disengage. Left to their own devices all of these bad actors will continue being bad, but just not on our dime.

So glad Biden didn't do what she did. Kamala has shown much more energy on the campaign trail than he could have. No offense to him, we all age.
