• Why the Democrats were Israel’s perfect partners in genocide

    Over the last year, we have witnessed President Joe Biden elevate the U.S.-Israel “special relationship” to new heights. From replenishing
    Israel’s weapons stocks and shielding it from accountability on the international stage, to deploying U.S. assets and personnel in
    Israel’s defense, the Biden administration has gone above and beyond
    to ensure that Israel not only could sustain its unprecedented assault
    on Gaza, but that it wouldn’t have to bear the full cost of war.

    Biden went into his reelection campaign wrestling with Donald Trump
    for the title of “Israel’s best friend” — a grotesque race to the
    bottom that has become a tradition during U.S. election seasons. So
    when the president ultimately decided to drop out, some were hopeful
    that Vice President Kamala Harris would release us from this downward
    spiral. They were soon disappointed.

    Media outlets eagerly insisted that Harris seemed to show “greater understanding and empathy for Palestinians,” and surmised that such a difference in perspective might lead to a change in policy. But in the
    months since assuming the head of the Democratic ticket, Harris has
    made it clear that she is ready and eager to carry on Biden’s
    catastrophic legacy for the next four years.

    And while Israelis overwhelmingly favor Trump over Harris, and the
    former president certainly remains the preferred candidate among the
    country’s most extreme leaders, they might be missing the point.
    Because if you look past the partisan posturing, not only will Biden
    go down in history as Israel’s most consistent ally, but the strategy
    he and his fellow Democrats have embraced — masking their
    unconditional support for Israel behind a facade of concern for human
    rights — has played a crucial role in allowing Israel to get away with
    genocide for this long.

    Because the world saw that Hamas and the Palestinians started
    this ugly war. Intentionally attacking, killing and raping
    civilians, women, and children.

    “You dared to strike at a smart and courageous nation on October 7th—committing genocide, kidnapping their children, and violating their women.

    You thought they would fall, but they rose again, returning after 11
    months to correct what had only momentarily slipped—their intelligence.

    Now, they will send you back 1,000 years, to a time without technology,
    where a ringtone feels like a death knell and a beep is a nightmare.

    You will be haunted by your own shadow, too afraid to use any
    technology, cut off from the advanced world.

    And they will defeat you—not with bullets or tanks, but through the unbreakable will of brave, intelligent people.

    Over a simple cup of coffee, with one decisive click, they will seal
    your fate, and the fate of anyone who dares harm their children.

    This is a nation the world respects. Lebanon - Hezbollah's pager attacks
    and the V82 (walkie talkie) strike are not merely military victories;
    they represent a triumph for the Middle East over radicalism - a victory
    not only for Israel but for all who stand against terror.”

    On a personal note: in order to understand the Middle East, we better
    listen to smart people who live there.

    Less Palestinians would die if Hamas would allocate money for food and
    medicine instead of weapons and tunnels. For the citizens too.

    This is exactly it.
    Somehow, the Palestinian always run out of food but never run out of
    weapons.

    No more bastards than the IDF. They stayed when the rest of the
    Jewish population immigrated after the Roman destruction of the Temple.
    They used Camels and Donkeys a lot more recently than 1400 years ago.

    There are Palestinians whose ancestry goes back 4000 years or
    more. Israel had the myth of Return but the Palestinians had the
    land for generations and the Stern Gang and others forced them
    out. The Settlers in the West Bank continue the Terrorist of
    the Stern Gang and cohorts.

    HAMAS is a terrorist organization whose funds came from
    Netanyahu to build all those tunnels and buy all those arms. He
    was foolish enough to think he had bought them off and disregarded
    the warnings from the Border Watchers.

    All human beings are no more distant than cousins. It really
    pains me to see the viciousness between cousins that this conflict
    has unleaseed. HAMAS with the attack a year ago caused this horror
    and they continue it by refusing to simply surrender and spare
    the lives of the people of Palestine including Gaza.

    But the way the fight goes it is clearly the Unholy Land
    where Satan/Shaitan could be said to be gaining souls every day.

    bliss

    Bullshit, these people have been fighting for thousands of years. Ain't no
    way to determine 'who started it'.

    And you keep ignoring the fact that Netanyahu bankrolled Hamaz
