I teach AP US Government. I’ve never seen polling showing Congress this out of touch across the board. It’s wild.
Raven Onthill@adam regardless of what Congress wants or the public thinks, how is a ceasefire to be accomplished when both sides want to keep on fighting?
@ravenonthill I think there may be more than two groups involved and their desire for conflict varies widely. Reducing this to “both sides” is a faulty heuristic.
@adam it's Likud and its coalition vs. Hamas. Both groups have international supporters. Unless these ruling coalitions can be pried out of power - and they have stayed in power for years despite intense opposition - I do not see how the other factions you write of can make any headway; with the acts of 10/7, Hamas has undone all moderate Israeli opposition.
