    stories like this are always bullshit propaganda to make people think Biden’s being the ‘reasonable’ one in the room, reigning them back, and if they start a war well darn he tried so hard to moderate them.

    you don’t want a wider war to break out? stop enthusiastically sending them weapons/money while they commit genocide, and put pressure on them to end this onslaught and end the occupation.

      Alternately it’s a signal to Israel that we don’t want more of a mess down there.

      I mean by your logic if we really disapprove of Israel attacking hezbollah then we should send that message by bombing the idf because anything else is obvious propaganda.

      Considering next year is an election, if it was really propaganda it would say that Biden was considering a strike on hezbollah militants confirmed to have taken part in the attack. That would buy him 5 points easy.
