Yes, but why does that mean stopping US weapons shipments to Israel would cause Iran to invade/attack/etc? Israel has a huge weapons stockpile and is still a Western ally - they just happen to be committing genocide with American funds and bombs.
Where in the world are you getting the idea that he’s literally “threatening” either?
“The administration of President Joe Biden will work with Congress on possible sanctions against the International Criminal Court after its prosecutor announced it was seeking arrest warrants for senior Israeli and Hamas officials, US secretary of state Antony Blinken said on Tuesday.”
we temporarily halted shipments earlier this month to put pressure on Netanyahu
We resumed those shipments and funds, and Israel has since crossed Biden’s red line and attacked Rafah
Netanyahu’s interests may align with Putin
Netanyahu/Likud are dictators who control Israel. Until he/they are removed, their interests are Israel’s interests. Which means that Israel is a Russian asset with a stranglehold on American funds thanks to AIPAC
US presidents are required by American law since 2008 to ensure that Israel is better armed than all its neighbours. Biden doesn’t have a real choice unless he can get a bill through both houses to stop arming Israel. I don’t think that’s even remotely realistic.
Trump would be twice as bad for Palestine. “Finish them” is an actual call to genocide.
But you don’t care for facts, you just want to blame Biden for everything that you think left wingers might not like so they’ll not vote and Trump can get in.
Sounds like Nikki Haley is supposed to be fined half a million dollars in that there anti genocide law you linked to:
Whoever directly and publicly incites another to violate subsection (a) shall be fined not more than $500,000 or imprisoned not more than five years, or both.
I don’t think you can interpret Nikki Haley writing “finish them” on an Israeli bomb as anything other than a call to genocide.
Sorry if that interrupts your attempt to make this news article not about Nikki Haley writing “finish them” on an Israeli bomb.
Which would make Nikki Haley writing “finish them” on an Israeli bomb when Israel is already bombing vast numbers of civilians in Gaza about the most obvious, public and and direct call to completed genocide you could make, I think.
Do you think she did it to make it more likely she’d be picked as Trump’s running mate/Secretary of State, or do you think she’s just pitching early to be the post-Trump leader, or is she just a run of the mill genocidal maniac?

I’d just like to remind you folks the headline you’re debating under:
Biden/Dems sent the genocide bombs and Haley/Republicans autographed them.
I’m not sure how that improves things

Or else what?
Also, funding and arming genocide is also illegal. And immoral. And stupid.

But she obviously will never be charged. Ever.
Genocide is bad because it’s evil, not because it’s illegal. Idk why you’re fixated on laws here

Who cares? Biden sent the bombs and Netanyahu is using them. She has no power here - they do.
She’s evil as a general matter. But Biden and Netanyahu are worse regarding the current genocide
The bombs were already there. These are old bombs.
Why is Biden sending bombs then?
Iran.
