Biden must stop supplying weapons to Israel, Ukraine

Bad foreign policy will come back to haunt us in the long run. We must let President Biden know that he has stepped too far with his conservative hawkish military plans and tell him to step down and let someone else run. Biden says he is for protecting civilians but sends weapons to Israel and civilians are getting killed in Gaza.. As long as the U.S. is sending weapons to Israel the war on Gaza will continue.

Biden is doing everything he can so that this war will continue. More children and women will get slaughtered each day. More innocent people will continue to starve to death. There should not be any question that we in the U.S. are taking part with this genocide, for it is our tax money that pays for all the weapons we send. We are breaking international law and losing favor with many people around the world.

The same is true with the Ukraine war. We need to stop giving weapons to Ukraine and demand peace negotiations are made with Russia. We need to also demand Russia make peace negotiations. However, sending more weapons to Ukraine only means more people will be killed and that the war will last longer. Hopefully, President Biden has not done too much damage, for he ordered the blowing up of Nord Stream pipeline, as alleged by journalist Seymour Hersh. The world has not been helped by Biden’s destructive actions.
