What if it started with the equivalent of the George Floyd video instead of Oct. 7

I just said, for years before Oct 7th, Palestinians held peaceful protests and the response from Israel was violence and death. If Biden was just waiting for an excuse, why didn't he do anything in 2021 or 2022, citing these shootings?

Our media and our leaders just don't care about the humanitarian angle here, Israel represents too much of an opportunity to move weapons and keep the money flowing to the industrial complex.
