Letter

In response to The two envoys

Joe Biden is no mere bystander

George Browning says: “Mr Biden has clearly had a gutful of Mr Netanyahu, but he will not give sway to his sense of justice emanating from his Catholic faith because he knows if he did so, he would have even less chance of winning the November election.”

This is to understate his role.

If Joe Biden is as compos as he claims he is, then he deserves to stand accused of being fully complicit in the war crimes in Gaza, heading the US as the principal perpetrator by proxy of the pogrom in Palestine. The White House is simultaneously the admin centre, and the armourer of the continuing war crimes, while also posing as the arbitrator of a ceasefire. And that is apparently fine with our “yes sir no sir three bags full sir” Australian government.
