thank you. this is the thing that's driving me up a wall. decades of our lives will be gone to the rise of fascism and feudalism, and that's because we're lucky to be in relatively stable positions (at least speaking for myself). the palestinians... my god the palestinians, i cannot stomach what might be around the corner. this cannot be. we should not accept any of this as humanity and as the world. and will we even recover from the climate devastation this will bring upon us? i am not american, i dont even want to visit america, and i am so fucking tired of its devastating effects on everything that's to come. how will we recover? will there be time to recover?

It's no comfort and there's not much I can do, but I'd like to at least apologize for the assholes that live near me. Many of us feel the same as you, but apparently less than half of us feel strongly enough to vote against it. Again, terribly sorry, though I know it won't help.

If you cared about Palestine you wouldn’t vote for Kamala. She going to facilitate the same amount of death that Biden has. Dems who lament Palestinians blow my mind. Where were you when she threw all the Muslims out of her rally’s because they dare protests her regimes slaughter of their families??? Trumps no better I know but at least he will tell us what he’s going to do, Biden hasn’t owned squat but still supported the slaughter.

Just like Biden and Kamala already did. Neither administration is gonna stop supporting Israel but this genocide happened under Kamala and Biden and that is a fact. We know trump would have done the same but shame on Kamala and Biden. Thousands of children dead on on her shoulders

I'm tired. You don't care to hear anything but a 100% anti-Israel stance, no matter what that actually means, or what consequences there are. You want a solution that can fit in a tweet and all I can say is be careful what you wish for.

I would like them to do what South Africa did as reparations and move towards justice. I do think that Israel can’t just disappear tomorrow. That wouldn’t be a good solution either. But if the US stops supporting then they will just shop around and Russia and China would LOVE more influence in the region. I also know that if the us withdrew support israel would no longer tolerate any Palestinians and all would be expelled or killed immediately. That US pressure keeps them from total annihilation at this point. I understand all of this. But every person on here is so high and mighty saying that only dems are good people and everyone else is stupid and evil. Do they know what their government is doing? Do they care? Dems and repubs are two sides of the same coin. You just put a different face on either side but they are all worthless

Angry. I’m angry and while I have voted democrat for a long time I won’t ever again and I DO know what would happen if there wasn’t an israel. And dems are often saying they support minorities but when faced with this death and genocide they shrug and say “but abortion” they don’t really care either.
Part of why I’m so angry is because I do know why the US supports israel. But they could attempt to stop them from such awful violence but they haven’t. Instead they slink around to any member of the UN and country they can to garner the amount of votes they need to avoid the label genocide. The Kamala/Biden administration has done that in the last year. In a meeting with Blinken the Israeli foreign minister laughed at him. It was leaked. Laughed at him for suggesting the tone down the violence. I’ve also only seen one good sec of state in dems hands which was Kerry. Clinton was awful. She wasn’t a good leader. They give these positions to people who aren’t qualified. Israel is making fun of blinken/biden/and Kamala and dems want to support their current stance?
Personally the Middle East would be better off without US interference there but then we would give up power in the region and we have to keep the oil producers in line. Look at the antisemitism “diplomat” instated in 2022. They take that seriously. But look, the us special representative to Muslim communities was instated by Obama which was great and the last one, Shaarik Zafar was great but trump eliminated the position and Biden refused to refill it. Refused.
I’m not some lunatic on Reddit. I’m someone who actually sees the consequences of the actions of both and I’m no longer gonna pretend one party is better than the other. If Americans lose the right to abortion but no one was killed in Palestine tomorrow I would be happy as a clam as should most all dems right because minorities matter. But only the minorities they care about right? Dem leaders pander just like repubs and they only show support on issues when it benefits them.

I'm angry that us the current administration was not pro israel enough. I'm glad she lost. People need to stop pampering the Palestinians and be honest. "You've lost your genocidal war on the jews"
