Lots of people here frame this as a Biden and Harris policy. While the Senate is evenly split between parties, the House is majority Republican. Congress is where this money is allocated. And Trump is rabidly anti-Muslim. But sure, frame aid as Biden and Harris only. Never mind what will happen once Trump wins the election.
Biden has literally bypassed congress to send more arms to Israel than what was allocated.
The genocide is bipartisan, and Biden is in power right now. It's framed as Biden policy, because it literally is.
No its about stopping a genocide you ghoul. It's hard to make the situation worse than it is. Biden is obligated to stop arms sales years ago.
Read The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine and never speak again.
10% of Gaza is estimated to be dead and another 20% are under siege in what is in all likelihood an extermination operation right now.
The lack of self-awareness in this post is staggering.
What the fuck are you talking about? Are you trying to tell me that the overwhelming Muslim or leftist progressive protesters want a Trump presidency? How the fuck does that make sense?
It will happen regardless of who wins the election, because imperialism is bipartisan. And it’s not about Biden or Harris or Trump: the Republican and the Democratic candidates were always going to be supportive of imperialism. The Republican & Democratic political machines aren’t going to float anti-imperialists on the general election ballot.
Biden has dozen of options to halt all arms sales to Israel whenever he wants. He is obligated to do so by both international and US law because of the blatant war crimes and attacks on aid workers but go off I guess.
