Yes while Obama didn't directly perpetuate genocide as Biden has done. with more conviction than anything else he has done, Obama failed to act on the side of the Syrian people against Assad, who was also responsible for the massacre of Palestinians inside Syria at a refugee camp. The Obama government would only supply arms to those fighting ISIS while refusing to help those fighting units, which did exist, that were part of a grassroots resistance for democracy needing to overturn Assad in order to stop his mass murder of his own citizens. (Such units existed but by a point were decimated)
This is a false comparison. @EvKatz, you're saying Obama refrained from arming certain parties that were at war (armed conflict/genocide). With Biden, we are refusing to NOT ARM a government that both is acting against US interests and committing what most Human Rights agencies view as a genocide. Critiquing Obama for not intervening in a conflict, when said intervention would have further destabilized the entire globe as a comparison to arming the IDF as their leadership brings the entire ME to the precipice of war is a false comparison. I'd be perfectly fine if Biden up and decided, NOT TO ARM Israel and see what happens. That's actually what the majority of the world is asking for. While Obama is fair game for much criticism, criticisms for intervention, non-intervention, and active support/complicity shouldn't be made parallel.
I agree with u about the monstrous character of Bidens devotion to arming Israel and covering it up. Going into Syria further doesnt make sense here but it's not the same obviously but Palestinians were massacred there and it does matter that there was silence on that imo leaving it there
Legacy of genocide

That is what he is going to take with him to the grave, not to mention the crimes against the Iraqi people.
