Nope. And the conservatives are all in on Israel. Gaza is a genocide under the UN definition. Specifically they are corralling people into an area the size of a major airport and dropping enough bombs to make an area ten times the size shudder. They created that situation by not allowing people to evacuate through their lines. Which is also a war crime. Now that they've created it, everyone from retired European military officers to the UN is shouting that it's impossible to drop bombs in there without causing massive civilian casualties.
Furthermore they're restricting food aid into the entire area. Refusing to allow enough in for people to survive. They've actually reduced the amount they're letting in since the ICC ruling that they immediately take steps to allow more aid in.
This is what a genocide looks like. It looked like this in Rwanda, in Sudan, in Myanmar, and on and on.
Oh so it's okay then. He didn't murder them, he just gave them the bombs to do it, knowing what was happening. Why didn't you say so? It's all okay now!
Which is it? Because I laid out the genocide and you said but that's not Biden doing it and now you're back to its not genocide. Are you trying to work your way down the narcissist's prayer? Because if you are, you're doing it badly.
For the record you've tried -
That's not a crime.
And if it is a crime Biden didn't do it.
You should be here -
Says the one who thinks Biden's responsibility in the Gaza genocide is a pick and choose menu.
Bud my goalposts have been the same this whole time. The IDF is commiting a genocide and Biden is responsible because he's knowingly supplying it.
Even if that were true, he could at the very least not give them the bombs to do it with. But in reality Israel has stopped bombing at his behest before. And the IDF publicly said they could not operate like this without American bombs.
You're twisting yourself pretty hard to defend Biden, but this really is indefensible.
How do you even come to that conclusion? It's this a translation error or something?
You keep trying to go to Biden is innocent because he's not actively committing the genocide.
So here it is again.
And the UN definition with the bits Israel is doing highlighted.
Sure you have. And the sky is actually green. I'm just not playing your games.
Do I though? Have you actually looked at what happens if you hold up a sign on the wrong street corner and the cops get mad at you? It's not pretty, and it's a lot more like Russia than you want to think.
Nope not a clue.
Lmao you're the one who talked about the election and losing the first amendment. You went there.
was MSNBC talking about it 7 months ago? what about Fox News? you get a lot of Israel news coming out of the CBS evening news 6 months ago? this is such a disingenuous accusation you should be ashamed.
The democracy, The average voter has no real policy influence over? Bragging about upholding the status quo with no results is crazy. You can't even this old man to stop enabling genocide. Dems continue to do whatever the GOP asks for with little resistance. All you can do is scream at people to vote harder.
Right propaganda is when the President doesn't enable genocide.
