And every time that idea forms, people parade the ‘we gotta take/hold the majority this next election, simmer down about those shitheads.’

How ‘unclean’ are you willing to tolerate?

Is that how it worked? I seem to remember Iran having to be the adult in the room last year and ending the back-and-forth rocket attacks.

Appeasement does not work. Didn’t in the '30s, and will not now. The Likud and other war-hawk fascist sorts will continue to push and consolidate power if their platform shows results (we are untouchable). Maybe Biden’s Chamberlain strategy delayed war, but it did not and cannot prevent it so long as it insulates Israel from the consequences of its actions.
