He has stood by and not protected innocent people in Gaza enough. And this might soon escalate to embroil the entire region in the conflict. I can’t predict what UN will decide but it could call this a genocide.

I do realize there are no challengers to Biden that have any chance except weakening Biden for the general. I do not support any of them.
