        Then the headline would be, “Arab leaders meet with Biden.” And nobody would read it.

        And pro-genocide Biden supporters would spam it as proof that the genocide all of them have always wanted is even popular with the family of those being genocided.

        Jokes on them, still didn’t read it.

        I don’t think anyone is surprised that Arab leaders don’t like Biden right now. Not exactly a brave new take that would be surprising to anyone.

        It sends a message, I guess. But doesn’t change anything.

      Biden needs them, due to demographic shifts, to win the Midwest swing States.

      You’ve got the balance of power here wrong.

      It’s the Arafat playbook. Talk and talk and talk but then when you get a chance to sit at the table and make a deal, say “no thanks, I’m happy to keep things fucked”.
