Simultaneously the US policy has made Israeli political rhetoric more and more reprehensible and the country as a whole answers to no one even as it commits crimes that would lead to sanctions anywhere else
How will the US now change course? The publicized in an alternate reality, as evidenced by the comments on any piece even slightly critical of the Israeli conduct.

At every step Palestinians dehumanize themselves , just pay attention to the brutality they perpetrated and it’s not only Hamas but also the supportive and active participation of “innocent “ on a very grand scale . Whitewashing this fact will not do justice to the facts .

This doesn't negate the fact that American media (& Western media at large) essentially dehumanizes the Palestinians. The reporting that drives people to hold notions about Palestinians being inherently violent terrorists constantly makes the headlines, while the reasons why they often feel the need to resort to violence do not. Having over 2m people crammed into a blockaded 25-mile strip of land because their ancestors simply lived in what is now Israel during 1948 is not only unethical, but criminal. The blockade should be ended and the border torn down.

The domestic American Israel Lobby has extraordinary influential economic political powers and privileges
Netanyahu has been thumbing his nose at the U.S.-backed two-state solution for decades. There's a reason why Trump is the only U.S. president who he's supported unconditionally. The guy tried to flat-out undermine Barack Obama every chance he got and he wasn't much better to George W. Bush.
