Some of what you said is relevant, but none of it has to do with Palestinians. That's my fucking point. I said a million times Trump is worse, but for Palestinians it makes no difference.
They are already working towards that, they've been annexing the west bank for a long while, and they don't need US troops for it.
This is from 2020.
This is from July 2023.
Here's an entire wiki page about all they've been doing since 1967.
The genocide is already happening. And again, whether US soldiers or just the IDF are involved is irrelevant for the people being killed, it only matters for the Americans being drafted.
They already don't care, they've killed aid workers, journalists, and countless children. They've raped and tortured prisoners.
Exactly, "again". Do I need to say more?
And everything after that is about what Trump will do to people in America, about which we agree on, and I've already pointed out several times is not my point. My point is, for the last time, Trump is not materially worse for the people living in Palestine than Kamala, and pretending that he can do worse to them is to whitewash what is currently happening and to downplay the decade long genocide.
