She is still a horrible person who have excused Israeli crimes in the past. Hopefully this is the beginning of real change.

I think she’s finally realized that almost all the compromise has been one-way.

She was calling it a genocide and for Congress to block arms sales 7 months ago. And called out Netanyahu In February on the senate floor.

Yeah but she gave Biden a free pass until today. She was one of the many who fell in line behind Biden, terrified that any critisicm no matter how deserved would help Trump. Finally critisizing someone in here sphere of influence for a change.

Blocking F-15 aircraft is not the same thing as blocking arms sales.

Are fighter jets not "arms"? They were just the next arms transfer being talked about at the time.

Which if she really cared about anything. She should actually know for decades that compromising to the right only helps the right (and plays well for the hard-line centrists that love speeches and photo ops but don't want to do real work). She hasn't realized anything, and is just prepping for pretending to have "always fought for (insert major cause)."

She is doing this only because it doesn't matter, Biden is leaving and he can do whatever he want for two more months.
