Joe Biden will not be the Democratic nominee in Novemberās presidential election, thankfully. He is not withdrawing because heās being held responsible for enabling war crimes against the Palestinian people (though a recent poll does have nearly 40 percent of Americans saying theyāre less likely to vote for him thanks to his handling of the war). Yet itās impossible to extricate the collapse in public faith in the Biden campaign from the āuncommittedā movement for Gaza. They were the first people to refuse him their votes, and defections from within the presidentās base hollowed out his support well in advance of the debate.
The Democrats and their presumptive nominee Kamala Harris are faced with a choice: On the one hand, they can continue Bidenās monstrous support for Netanyahu, the brutal IDF, and Israelās genocide of Palestinians. That would help allow the party to cover for Biden and put a positive spin on a smooth handoff, even though we all know this would mainly benefit the embittered president himself and his small coterie of loyalists. Such a choice would confirm that the institutional rot that allowed the current situation to develop still characterizes the party.
There we go. Now youāre being honest. Appreciate it far more than the disingenuous āoh the humanityā BS.
Iāll just remind you that Israel literally existed for all of a week and the surrounding nations declared war. They werenāt the ones that started all this. Doesnāt make their hands clean ofc, but trying to justify terrorism that way is going to fail too so save your breathe.
Ahhh, of course, we are going to reach for the āAnti-Zionism = Anti- Semitismā defense. For the record, I make common cause with any Jewish people who oppose colonialism and genocide, like these honest and noble folks: https://www.jewishvoiceforpeace.org/
Interesting, I wonder what happened immediately before the state of Israel declared Independence? Funny how you and the other occupiers never want to talk about the Nakba. Funny how you want to talk about declaring independence but not about displacing hundreds of thousands and destroying or colonizing hundreds of villages and towns.
How about this: return all the land that was taken in the Nakba, then we can stop talking about the destruction of the occupier state. Is that civil and fair enough for you? Or was it always about stealing the land from the beginning?
You mean the Palestinian war against a UN mandate? Where again, Palestinians were violent first? I donāt think this is the support you think it is.
Anyways, Iām done. You showed your true goals so thereās no point continuing this debate. Weāll just agree to disagree until it gets settled the hard way.
