16. AKA, religious/ethnic tribalism finally kills America.

If this is all they care about--a toothless command from Joe Biden to dictate to another country how they must stop defending themselves in order to curry favor with American Muslims--then I guess nothing else about the US matters. Fuck them. Live under Trump and the GOP. Progressives and Democrats (on edit, including Jewish progressives) have always, always stood up for Muslims, warned about Islamaphobia, called out the US for our unnecessary war in Iraq, cautioned about retribution against Muslims whenever we suffered an Islamic terror attack--and this is the result? Biden's not ready to abandon Israel and they're mad? Yep, fuck 'em. We're all fucked then.
