    Curious who the last US president who meaningfully criticized Israel would have been. If I had to guess Biden is bound by defense treaties and other formal agreements, both public and covert, and has to walk a fine line in how he talks about this and other geopolitical matters.

      Yes, this is accurate. Trump, however, showed us that you could just ignore the law and make your own rules with blackjack and hookers, and the worst thing that’ll happen is some stern finger wagging. If there was ever a time to do that, stopping a genocide is it.

      LBJ was responsible for covering up USS Liberty

      And Kennedy was supposedly killed for opposing things like toppling nations such as Cuba.

      So I would assume Kennedy as he would likely have been much more critical of their actions and would have made the incident very public.
