Hmm this seems to be more russian election meddling courtesy of our favorite sellouts who don't actually give a damn about anyone other than who is paying them, #codepink
Donald Trump has made it clear he will allow ol' Bibi to overrun Gaza. The only way to end this is to vote in a Democrat majority in the House and Senate. A vote for anyone other than Biden is a vote for Trump.
I didnt ratify the 1789 constitution, so using it as a club to get me to vote for Genocide plus American Fascism or Genocide plus American Oligarchy is a false choice
Mathematically, you are right. Duvigers law is. Morally you are wrong.
This is what West is supporting: "In Gaza, if you ask me, instead of taking them to the south, we should have told them to go to the beaches. Then the navy would know how to load them (onto boats). Put them in the refugee camps with their brothers in #Lebanon... Leave Gaza with nothing in it."
Head of the #Metula municipality, a northern Israeli settlement near Lebanon, David Azulay, suggests in a podcast to completely ethnically cleanse Palestinians in Gaza and make it a place "like #Auschwitz."
@faab64@palestine@israel yeah, people can just stop coming at me when I use the word genocide, when Israelis are calling for #Auschwitz conditions in their occupied territories. Tell me again, how they are not the 21st century’s Nazis? Especially given the images of the skeletal starved dead children that have come out of Gaza today. Fuck him.
@pinkdrunkenelephants@GM7077@israel@palestine@figstick The American people so have a choice btw: 2 genocides or 4. It would be silly to blame them for the 2 they have no choice not to vote for. It would be completely alright to blame them for the other 2, if the election decides they should occur. And it would be downright evil to suggest that voting for 4 by default is better than voting for 2 by active action.
The #Israel#IDF force are the terrorists, Anyone fighting them now is just fighting for survival, I know that is controversial, and I condemn what happened on October 7th but that is the reality.
The #IDF are murdering civilians, either by air or on the ground, or by starvation.

NYU #LangoneHealth gave the nurse, #HesenJabr, an award for her work. She said hospital officials then fired her because she made pro- #Palestinian remarks in an acceptance speech.
@plink@palestine@israel I wish I had written that. An appropriate level of moral venom injected surgically, not with the broad brush so many paint with.
@plink I had a post removed for saying Israeli society needs deprogranming from believing genocide is ok, so I won't repeat it here. . . @palestine@israel

‘What’s happening is not genocide’: #Biden criticizes #ICC for seeking arrest warrants for #Israel officials – as it happened
[Live blog for May 20 - now closed, but still available]
@plink@palestine@israel he evidently didn't bother to read the ICC statement. It didn't use the word genocide. I did read it, and it sounded pretty straightforward and accurate to me.
It's not going to happen, but it's a step towards the right direction.
Judging by the way #ICC charged #Hamas, every ranking military serving in Gaza to be charged with #WarCrimes, just like they did with those in #Bosnia and #Rwandan.
But sadly, just #Netanyahu and #Gantz were those they could dare charging.
@faab64@palestine@israel I'm not sure and can see how one might make the opposite argument: it's good that they did not "bad apple" the Israeli crimes by charging some specific Israeli soldiers with documented blood on their hands, but by charging Netanyahu and Gallant, they clearly signalled that the crimes are deliberate policy. Which is much more valuable support for the parallel ICJ process too.
