Killing another country's civilian is not casus belli, especially when considering both countries are allied.

These terms are steeped in legal precedent and tradition. You may not agree them, or respect them, but that alone doesn't change how they're defined.

But that also doesn't change the fact that this should be a serious diplomatic row with serious bilateral consequences, but so should have untold numbers of other war crimes committed against the Palestinians in general, and more specifically, against countless American citizens within the occupation zones.

Also, I'm pretty sure Joe isn't cognizant about much lately, and I would wager that he only appears lucid when talking about events that happened 50 years ago.

Ah yes, IDF is using live ammo to disperse peaceful demonstration against the illegal settlements in illegally occupied land by them.

Oh and the bullets they fired were in the air until they weren't. The sad part is that we would have never heard of this if the victim wasn't a foreign national.

When there are no consequences, the aggressors just increase the aggression. Who will hold them accountable? Joe "I'm a Zionist" Biden?

The entire Democratic and Republican parties are pro-Israel and put Israel ahead of the US. Zionism is a bipartisan issue.
