The American People have been anti-war since we elected Barack Obama in 2008.

This attitude is nothing new, it is not anti-Jew. I suspect people will be marching on Washington next year too with this message that our taxpayers do not support genocide.  

This idea that the American people can be silenced from speaking out against support for an alleged ally is not one widely accepted in this country.

The American media is afraid, you can see that in their coverage compared to the international papers:  their headlines, the story placement, but especially, the editorials.  They are still championing women like Liz Cheney, and Nikki Haley... who do not represent the long-held beliefs of American women who vote.

They are still stocked in their rosters with pro-Israel columnists:  Bret Stephens was once top editor at the Jerusalem Post;  many of their white male long-time columnists are of Jewish descent and have spent years covering the current "status quo".  That doesn't disqualify them from honest opinions, but perhaps it strongly biases their views where they cannot represent independent observers anymore.

If this course continues, Joe Biden and Israel will both lose, because the oldsters in power willing to blindly support Israel on their latest deadly trek into Gaza are losing their grip on power, and reality.

Just like in the 1960s, the media was often the last to understand the power of the younger generation's voices amassing on the streets of their towns across the country.  They forced their leaders to follow a less deadly way of ruling the world, and even dared question what role it was of America to determine via violence who must live and die in other countries, not ours, across the globe.

It's a small world, in Washington DC too.  It's a small, small world...

Added:  It's this dismissive attitude that will come back to bite them, I think.  These allegedly dumb kids today are actually better informed on the foreign-policy issues than those in power pretend.  The status quo is shifting;  and the oldsters grasping tenuously to the "we've always done in this way!" apparently do not understand what is coming to rock their worlds:

"Part of the problem is a simple herd mentality — people screaming slogans whose meaning and implication they know nothing of, or not wishing to be disliked by taking an unpopular position."

Said David Wolpe, a prominent rabbi, who resigned from a Harvard's anti-Semitism committee, which was formed after the October 7 attack

Quoted in "Universities Face Congressional Inquiry and Angry Donors Over Handling of Antisemitism/Congress has opened an investigation into Harvard, M.I.T. and University of Pennsylvania, a $100 million gift was withdrawn, and demands have grown for the universities’ presidents to resign" (NYT).
