... and the problem is? The US is supporting Israel and supplying it with weapons. Neither Presidential candidate has any intention of changing that, nor is there majority Congressional support for changing it.

Many people believe what you're describing is the problem.

Many, perhaps, but nowhere close to a majority.

Many Googlers are not comfortable with that.

Lots of them are immigrants who understandably don't want to be associated with US-endorsed genocide.

Example of how punctuation can make all the difference...

'... and the problem is: The US is supporting Israel and supplying it with weapons. Neither Presidential candidate has any intention of changing that, nor is there majority Congressional support for changing it.'

The american people are mostly against israel and sending billions to israel. And yet nearly all of congress, presidential candidates, etc are in favor of it. Something is awry with representative government when nearly 100% of the politicians are not representative of the american people.

> The american people are mostly against israel

I'm afraid you're going to need some support for that statement.

Immigrants do not have the vote, unless they become citizens. Correct?

So their political preferences aren't really material.

And of course, you have no data to back up your statements.

Your friends and people you interact with may be mostly against. It’s not clear that Americans generally are.

Pew [1] has a pretty much even split on military support for Israel, with 36% favoring it, 35% against it, and 29% either on the fence or unsure. Only 22% in the same poll say that Biden is favoring Israel too much.
