8. As long as the US supports Israel's total impunity, only #4 will happen.

And Israel will continue to murder more mountains of Palestinians while the rest wring their hands and make symbolic gestures. They are afraid of the US, for good reasons.

People need to understand that the US has been complicit and never an honest broker for peace. With the exception of Jimmy Carter, a good and honest man and the only one who fully understood the impossible plight of the powerless Palestinians. Look what was done to him.

The entire power structure dominated by Israel's influence on foreign policy would need to be dismantled. It didn't happen under the Democrats, it certainly won't happen now. The writing was on the wall about the fate of Palestinians during the entire Biden Presidency, which saw a genocide unfolding. Those who saw the writing, have been screaming about it for nearly two years to no avail.

17 Democratic Senators voted to continue arming Israel recently. They don't represent the democratic base who want an arms embargo. Let's start there.
