      Why is it happening?

      Like why are the US doing nothing/ burry their head in the sand?

      Now please don’t bite my head off because I think at this point it’s actually a fair question. Are there a lot of people in the upper levels of government with connections to Israel or is there more to it?

        It’s that, but also, look up AIPAC. Lobbying is a huge problem in the US, and it was made way worse a couple decades ago by the SC’s decision in the Citizens United case.

        There’s still more to it than that, but politically speaking, that’s a big part of the dynamic in modern times.
