        They were about as “neutral” as they were in the Ukraine conflict under Biden.

        They were selling loads of weapons at discount prices and supporting the allies in many ways.

          Ah yes, and during Palestine conflict. They ultimately come out on top, it doesn’t matter if they’re funding a genocide. And people like you just spread around the “good”, and hide the actual heinous history.
