    Did you tell me that the dems would rather support a genocide than nominate a winning candidate? Cause I agree.

    Or do you mean like how trump was supposed to be worse for palestinians than kamalacaust, but then dude got a ceasefire before even taking office? Because I never would’ve predicted that.

        Simultaneously ‘Trump did not get the ceasefire’ and also ‘Netanyahu intentionally waited until after Trump won to agree to a ceasefire’

          How are those contradictions? Netanyahu openly favored a trump win and agreeing to a ceasefire before the election would have favored Biden. Trump isn’t even in office, Biden has been pushing for a ceasefire for months.

        You’re telling me your guy could have done a ceasefire a year ago and he didn’t?

        Jesus I hope he’s thrown in jail. What an evil person

          Could have? Sure. Did he use any leverage whatsoever? No.

          Can’t wait for Trump Tower to start construction on the pristine West Bank beachfront.

      You do know that Trump did the exact opposite, right? He deliberately (and illegally, mind you) pressured Netanyahu not to accept any ceasefire deal until after the election, sacrificing thousands of innocent civilians to make sure he could campaign on the issue.

          To be fair, they would have gotten the bombs elsewhere. There’s no stopping a genocide when the international arms trade exists. Even if they had to buy US arms, another grey market partner would have filled the void…

        Then it was incitement to commit genocide, which is a capital offense. You guys should have arrested him, you had a responsibility to the world.

      The orange dude DIDN’T get a cease fire. Hamas and the Palestinians realized that what Biden had to offer is better than the extinction that Trump will support.

        That’s so wrong. The palestinians were ready to accept a ceasefire MONTHs ago.

        Hamas accepted that deal in June. Netanyahu refused it. Trump made Netanyahu accept it

        You are consuming extreme Democrat propaganda if you think Hamas blocked the deal.
