The only two options here are either a chance for restraint in the war or an all-out slaughter. Picking neither of these two will make the latter option more likely to become reality. It's a straight-forward choice for any American who sincerely cares about the lives in Gaza.

Tell that to them. Don't kill the messenger lol. If you don't believe these individuals should be protesting a cause which they care deeply about (which has likely killed many who they have known and loved), then you are free to think this. I personally disagree...I'm hoping their message can be heard. Biden has the power to stop sending military aid to the madman Israel, but he chooses not to, effectively saying to these ppl "if you wanna protest, then fine. We'll just shoot ourselves in the foot and ruin our election."

I am all for killing the messenger, if the messenger is the one who is causing the biggest problems.

As sundin13 has already pointed out, taking a firmer stance against Israel comes with the risk of losing votes. I'd say it would lose easily more votes than the current course of the Biden administration, because support for Israel is something that both Democrats and Republicans agree on.
