Biden’s actions are pretty clearly NOT a reaction to the protests.

We know this because the protests have been going on for a while now and Biden took no action whatsoever.

It DOES immediately follow THIS news, and my suspicion is this is what caused the change in policy.

March 27th - Israel uses US supplied bombs to illegally attack Southern Lebanon, killing seven aid workers:

April 2nd, Biden reportedly “outraged” over the attack that killed seven members of World Central Kitchen.

Now he’s saying no, we aren’t giving you weapons for Rafa. The last thing he wants is more dead civilians with US supplied bombs.
