The US hasn’t turned a blind eye to it. The US has been exerting pressure for lessened combat operations since the getgo.
Foreign policy is not about morality, it is about power.
There are 3 main powers in that region. Saudi Arabia, Iran and Israel. Right now the US has a lot of influence over both (power). If the US were to just drop Israel, then all of a sudden the US has no more power in the region.
The Israelis do not need us for weapons. Not only do they have their own military industrial complex, there are other 1st world powers who would happily sell arms to Israel for a chance to become the new most powerful influence in the region due to having Iran and Israel under their thumbs.
I swear, Americans are fucking stupid when it comes to how anything works and they have zero desire to learn. It’s no wonder that the US ends up with people like trump.
If you continue to provide funding and weapons to an ongoing genocide, you are 100% complicit. What you are suggesting is that the ends justify the means.
The United States seeks to maintain influence in the Middle East for several reasons, including geopolitical stability, economic interests, and regional security. The region is vital for global energy resources, and stability in the Middle East is crucial to prevent potential threats such as terrorism and the spread of extremism. Additionally, the U.S. maintains alliances with several countries in the region to promote shared interests and counterbalance regional powers.

Say it with me. Foreign policy is about POWER, not morality. It is about power, influence, and power coupons.
Jesus, it’s like talking to literal children.
You don’t come off as an intellectual powerhouse buddy
I’m not your buddy, pal.
The power to do what? If it’s not the power to force morally good behaviour then it’s all pointless.
