    Listen, I’m just looking for a reason to hold on to hope right now. Americans are brainwashed about foreign policy in such a thorough way that I can’t see a scenario where we have a strong response against Israel’s genocidal actions for quite some time. It’s sickening, so when I see someone who is critical of Biden in his own administration, I appreciate it.

      I appreciate where you’re coming from – it would be a huge emotional relief to us all to see the killing in Gaza and the West Bank stop.

      I just think there is a need to be realistic about the possibility of a meaningful shift when it comes to Palestine under a Harris presidency.
