Could? Yes. Would? Realistically, no, not even Bernie. We would have to all but strangle Israel to stop Bibi’s government from achieving the goal of the Israeli far-right since the foundation of Israel.
A non-starter in US politics. Support for Israel is too widespread amongst voters still. Even Bernie, who is at the left fringe of US politics, has only suggested attaching strings to the new multi-billion aid package.
“It is hard to achieve change, therefore we shouldn’t even talk about it as a possibility”
And you’re the one calling others right wing trolls? AIPAC runs a strong lobbying game, and while there are sizable segments who are unflinchingly 100% pro-Israel, a growing section of the electorate is horrified to know that US bombs are dropped from US built aircraft, against a dramatically weaker force, by an army that is repeatedly callous in its treatment of Palestinian life. And the American taxpayer funds it, rules are bent or broken to deliver those weapons, all while dissent is silenced.
Hamas doesn’t have an air force or tanks, it barely runs mortar artillery - air power is massive overkill. And the IDF has repeatedly demonstrated a willingness to knowingly kill 10, 40, 100+ civilians if they can get at mid level officer or two. I’m disgusted with their actions towards civilians, and disgusted at US leadership and diplomats providing repeated political cover at the UN to neuter any resolution to help.
Will there be a Palestine by Jan 2024 and could any American President stop what’s going on?

Well we could at least stop helping them

Women voting was a non starter.
So was civil rights for black people.
Everything is a non starter if you don’t try
Centrists be like “Yeah! Isn’t it great?”

I mean his career is likely over so he definitely wasn’t gifted anything.
Not as long as he keeps this war going.
Well there isn’t a ‘Palestine’ now so it’s unlikely they’ll form a unifying government this week, most offices are closed.
Gaza and Samaria will be there next week, Gaza will be in rough shape though. They could benefit from an election themselves.
