Ok. I guess you maybe voted Biden? Did he explicitly stand on not supporting Israel?
You got a genocide?
In the short term, genocide is happening because Hamas pissed Israel off one time too many and one time too much. In the long term, the genocide is happening because of historical and deep-rooted emnity between Israel and its neighbouring Arab states. It sucks. There are extremist arseholes on both sides who profit from continued conflict and violence against 'the other'.
Regardless, America doesn't have absolute fiat in the region. Who you vote for makes little difference to what Netanyahu and Haniyeh will choose to do. But Trump is no less an ally of Israel than Biden is.
More genocide apologia and bad history. We are clearly on different teams.
I'm not sure what's the end goal of denying the genocide or giving the excuse that Israel is a geopolitical ally. Am I supposed to say "oh that makes the genocide okay, I will vote for Biden"? It is just more cruelty and dehumanization.
I’m not sure what ‘team’ you think I’m on.
I agree that a one-sided genocidal war seems to be going on right now and I’m against it.
What’s your solution?
