Nah, ik zie wel een optie dat de USA wat kantelt.
Joe Biden has been criticized by groups within his own party after he made a statement saying he believed in “Israel’s legitimate right to defend itself”; the statement from the White House failed to address the violence against Palestinians. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez took direct issue with Biden’s position, saying: “Blanket statements like these with little context or acknowledgment of what precipitated this cycle of violence – namely, the expulsions of Palestinians and attacks on al-Aqsa – dehumanize Palestinians and imply the US will look the other way at human rights violations. It’s wrong.”
On Twitter, the Michigan congresswoman Rashida Tlaib, who is of Palestinian descent, called out the US secretary of state, Antony Blinken, saying: “When will the US condemn racist violence against Palestinians? Is it your policy to support settlers stealing Palestinian homes & burning their lands? ()
Palestinian activists reacting on social media say this public denunciation of Israel is a seismic shift from previous language used by American politicians surrounding conflict in the region.
“It’s really different this time and honestly I think it’s in large part because of social media,” al-Khatahtbeh said.

Dat gaat natuurlijk niet van de ene dag op de andere, maar eenmaal in gang gezet is het moeilijk te stoppen; het inzicht dat de staat Israël zich misdraagt jegens ongewapende burgers, en dat het verzet door/namens die burgers best enige rechtvaardiging heeft.
