In meetings in Israel, U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin conveyed to Israeli leaders that it’s important to observe international rules of warfare.
As Israel girds for a fearsome ground assault into Gaza, senior Biden administration officials are warning their Israeli counterparts to show restraint and avoid mass civilian casualties and a humanitarian disaster that could turn world opinion against the Jewish state, according to two current and one former U.S. official.
Biden isn’t a leftist. He’s just less right than his opposition.
Is he left of the right? Then he is on the left and is a leftist. Yes, the ideals are shifting right, but he’s still left of right, so a leftist. It’s a relative word; language is fun!
If your options were Hitler or Mussolini, which one would be the leftist in your mind since surely there must always be one.
The center is left of the right, genius…
Not arguing that. Just meaning to say that, while not the left we want, the less right are the “leftists” in the conversation. Arguing that “lol those guys aren’t left” is a non-important point.
Just talk about the subject and stop labeling and judging the labels of left versus right.
So much time is wasted on it.
*i realize I’m wasting g my own time on it. Damn. Bye!
It’s not a relative word though. It describes a specific set of political beliefs, which Biden does not hold… so he’s not a leftist. He’s a liberal, and barely one at that.
