I mean if the Democrats thought Palestinian children were innocent they'd probably do more to stop the killing.
Or how about we call out the Democrats on their bullshit and push them to make changes now instead of after an election.
"But the Republicans are worse!" is such a cheap cop out.
They have been and are being called out.. they are changing. People keep just reminding you that one party is changing the precident that has stood since 1948. The U.S. recognized Israel on day 1. Undoing 75 years of allied support doesn't happen in a few weeks. As much as we want it so. More than half the U.S. population is still unsure Palestine isn't guilty and deserving of the acts specifically performed by Hamas and the Houthi and being portrayed an veiled in several layers of propaganda via media. If the majority of the citizens don't believe it is wrong, then their representatives surely don't see a reason to change precident, especially when one of the candidates is fighting to keep "chaos" at its highs to ensure it looks bad on the current candidate regardless of whether it is better for the people to make other choices.
I think the debate isn't about whether Hamas is guilty of the actions on October 7 (it 100% is), but whether the Palestinian people deserve to be punished.
By this argument the civilians who died on 9/11 deserved to because of US actions in the middle east (they 100% did not).
