Well-put, your Chamberlain reference nails it. Biden had 20 years worth of transcripts to inform him about Netanyahu - all of his racist and genocidal statements and those of members of his cabinet. Clinton and Obama both knew enough to push back hard against Netanyahu. Biden cannot be given the benefit of ignorance here. Obama would have advised him better than to hug a fascist, especially when his whole campaign message is built on "defending freedom against fascism." Biden does not belong on the 2024 ballot, but in front of a war crimes tribunal.
