WASHINGTON, D.C. — US President Joe Biden called the International Criminal Court's arrest warrants for top Israeli leaders 'outrageous' in a statement Thursday.
Biden is a devout catholic, meaning he believes Isreal must be the home for all jews for the rapture to happen. Not enough people are talking about this. Even the most “normal” religious people are nut jobs that shouldn’t be in power.
Christianity at its foundation is an apocalyptic religion, more so in Mark than the later gospels but it’s there in all 4 of them and comes back in full force in revelations which are all part of the Catholic canonical Bible. The specific details of what the end times will look like beyond what it says in the Bible differs greatly between different sects of Christianity, but they all predict some sort of divine apocalypse.
The mythical narrative is humanity doomed itself (Adam and Eve committing original sin dooming their progeny), Jesus came and erased that doom (by sacrificing himself to himself), and said he’ll be back (within the apostles lifetime) to bring the end times and utopia for Christians.
He will be remembered like silent Cal, except instead of doing to little to combat the oncoming great depression, it will be doing to little to prevent fascism.
If Bibi is a war criminal for leveraging an admittedly horrible terrorist attack to commit horrendous atrocities, so is Joe Biden.
What the US did in the 2 decades post 9/11 is no better or worse than what Israel is doing now. Accountability for one means accountability for the other, and Biden doesn’t want to be held accountable.
What the US did in Iraq and Afghanistan was wrong, no doubt. There’s a lot of reasons for that, ranging from who was actually responsible for 9/11 to all the actual violence between the civilians and soldiers. But systematic extermination is NOT one of those reasons. What Israel is doing in Gaza is 1000x worse. Equating it to how the US conducted its affairs minimizes what’s actually happening, muddying the water and keeping people from feeling like they should actually be doing anything about it.
huh, we wasn’t cynically posturing for election purposes, he really wants to die on this hill :/
Seems or entire government does. How much shady shit does isreal do for our country? Our official imports and exports don’t really look that dramatic.

I thought that was some evangelical sect crap. Roman catholics don’t believe in
rapture“the rapture”.Christianity at its foundation is an apocalyptic religion, more so in Mark than the later gospels but it’s there in all 4 of them and comes back in full force in revelations which are all part of the Catholic canonical Bible.

He pretty much did already.
He’ll not be remembered kindly by history for this. Even if he was objectively decent president.
He will be remembered like silent Cal, except instead of doing to little to combat the oncoming great depression, it will be doing to little to prevent fascism.
Sad but true. I really don’t understand why he is so adamant in his support for Netanyahu.
Because he’s a true believer who’s drunk the Zionism kool-aid.
Plus it probably helps that he’s received more money from AIPAC throughout his political career than his current net worth.
Because it’s self serving.
