What a weird focus on the US democratic party. Every single US government has been doing this exact same thing.
What a weird whataboutism. No US government has ever supported israel in a blatant Holocaust.
Even the Republicans that supported an israeli Genocide told israel to cut it off after 3000 killed Palestinians.
If Trump was doing this you’d be up in arms. But Blue MAGA all the way.
Sure… Zionists that don’t support Israel.
During the Suez Crisis of the 1950s, then-President Dwight Eisenhower leveraged the threat of sanctions to convince Israel to withdraw from the Sinai Peninsula, per AP.
Back in 1981, former President Ronald Reagan indefinitely delayed two shipments of F-16 fighter jets to Israel over the ‘‘escalating level of violence’’ in the Middle East.
In 1992, the Bush administration threatened to withhold the delivery of $10 billion in loan guarantees to Israel if it continued building settlements in the occupied West Bank and Gaza, the Washington Post reported.
In essence the entire US Government regardless if Republican or Democrat are complicit in this ongoing genocide.
That is true, but Republican’s electoral base mostly agrees with this whereas democrat’s electoral base doesn’t. Many Pro-republicans will gleefully vote for genocide or deny than that’s what’s going on. Pro-democrats, however are asked to tolerate genocide to vote for the lesser of two evils. It makes sense that the latter will protest and demand that the politicians who are supposed to represent them change their ways.
Getting rid of zionistic tendencies won’t just happen during one legislative period. But I’m not deep into US Politics so I can’t make any statements or suggestions how to get rid of this heinous stance.
So yeah voting democrats is the lesser evil on only this topic, while it is a way better choice regarding other more domestic issues.
So what you’re saying is the Democrats are the same as Republicans but they pretend to care.
Because if just one similarity exists that means both are the same. Now that’s the most basic and simplistic world view I’ve ever heard.
Same on this issue.
Liberals really pretending to not understand what context is.
Dude I’m not even a US Citizen I’m just an outside observer.
Also you could have clarified that you meant to say that both parties have the same stance on the issue, but no you had to also attack me as I can`t read your mind.

They probably did that on purpose - Motte-Bailey Fallacy
Oh nice, I didn’t know that this had a specific name. Thanks :)
Ironic that you attribute this to my comment instead of their.
You call my worldview simplistic. If you want kind words maybe don’t start with that.
Well apparently it’s even more simplistic as that.
Whether the winner is Trump or Kamala, both of them will still keep supporting Israel; as their actions benefit US overall. Trump even had the chance to resolve the israel palestine crisis back when he was the president. He didn’t. Why would he change policies after he’s elected again?
During his presidency, he admitted that Netanyahu was against a resolution with Palestine.
Every single mfker that approved and signed off on supporting Israel’s genocide against Palestine should all be held accountable and sent to prison as war criminals. EVERY. SINGLE. ONE.

Sure keep calling me the bad guy for picking the lesser evil. Maybe if you keep doing it enough, Lemmy will get more users.
What does “finish the job “ mean to you? People In glass houses shouldn’t throw stones.
We see articles about trump talking with bibi to stall or delay any ceasefire because it’ll help Harris… you post this?
Sounds like shipping 14,000+ 2,000 pound bombs to israel.
Sure sounds like Biden should start using his leverage over israel if he wants to achieve that ceasefire. If only he had the power to do that amiright haha.
No, you’re not right. We have literally ZERO idea what happens in the talks for a ceasefire. Sure I agree we should just stop sending them weapons. Is it that cut and dry? And especially now with dipshit Donny and bibi talking on the side.
We know. Blinken goes to israel, promises Netanyahu more weapons and asks him what lie he needs to say to blame Hamas. Then Blinken goes to Egypt and tells Sisi to help israel.
And especially now with dipshit Donny and bibi talking on the side.
Half the Trump stage is israeli flags not sure why turbolibs are acting surprised at a phone call.
I can’t tell if that first period is on accident or not and it changes the entire structure and point.
If you’re saying that we know what Bliken promises and says behind closed doors I’m going to need a source.
What does not being surprised by the call matter?
Paywalled, can’t read it
You can bypass it by pasting the article link into archive.ph, But actually this article is even better
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken sentenced the Gaza ceasefire negotiations to death by implying Hamas was the obstacle to a deal and that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had accepted it, Israeli officials told local media.
