Rhodes: “#Israel doesn’t want to end the war … if they were willing to end the war, they would get the hostages out. The idea that they need to continue to fight the war against #Hamas in Gaza - I’m sorry, there’s no security need to do it. You’re just talking about an already traumatised people, including a lot of injured people, who are being bombed in tents with no food and medicine.”

Vietor: “What a total fucking disgrace the Biden administration’s policy on Gaza was… Loyalty to #Netanyahu blinded him to the carnage, the total immorality of the policy, and US complicity in that policy.”

      No resort possible with Biden’s funding of genocide and ethnic cleansing. And lying about wanting a ceasefire

        Hey you agree that Bidens Israel policy was evil! Do you also agree that Trump’s exterminate and build a resort is even more fucking evil?

          It’s sad this needs to be explicitly said, but obviously yes. I feel like I’m in a room with toddlers every time it needs saying.

          Which is worse, being shot on sight or beaten to death? Bombed or starved?

            Which is why the whole “lesser evil is still evil” schtick bothered me so much. Like yeah, we know, Dems are evil. But Republicans are more evil, and the race was not close enough to entertain alternatives.
