All these people are convinced that Trump would be worse for Palestinians.
And maybe they're right, maybe Trump will send in straight up death squads. Maybe he'll build vans that pipe the exhaust into the cargo area and ship them to tel Aviv. Maybe he'll start sending the Israelis Zyclon b.
But the fact remains. The last year has been the most deadly for Palestinians. Ever. More Palestinians have been killed in the last year than died during the formation of the state of Israel. More Palestinians have had their homes destroyed in the last year, then ever before in modern history.
At this point, saying Trump would be worse for Palestine is like saying that Himmler would have been worse for the Jews. Possibly technically correct, but also a poor attempted genocide denial.
Trump feels the only thing Israel is doing wrong is not killing Palestinians fast enough.

Worse, if Trump wins, he will bring the worst Israeli policies to the United States.

To be clear here, if Harris does not win, Trump will. Those are your two choices. You can choose to vote for Harris or you court disaster. There is no viable 3rd choice.
Ok.
More Palestinians killed than in 1948. But, we can't criticize the administration committing a holocaust, we can't say anything negative about Hitler because "Himmler would be even worse"
I still remember when you shitlibs said "WHATABOUTISM" was bad, now you use it unironically to defend ethnic cleansing.
We absolutely can criticize the administration committing a holocaust... The ISRAELI administration.
you realize trump genuinely considered using a nuclear bomb during his office term right?
What do you mean "he might be worse"
also i feel like there was probably at least one famine that killed significantly more people at one point in history.
Not only considered using a nuke, but wanted to use a nuke to put out a hurricane...

this ones a classic, i always forget about it lmao
If Donald Trump had the faintest fucking clue what any of that was he would be getting very excited...
Thank goodness it looks like he will lose.
Now, can we talk about the current administration enabling, supporting, and funding the worst ethnic cleansing the middle east has seen in centuries?
Tbh the Syrian civil war saw 6 hundred thousand people killed and 14 million more people displaced
I guess you might have forgotten because that's already 0,1 centuries ago
So, assuming Kamala wins and that Israel continues escalating in the West Bank, in a year or two when the death count finally hits 600,001, you will finally allow criticism of your golden girl?
Your golden girl can go drink lukewarm shit from a baby bottle
I'm just saying you're flaunting hyperlatives without the faintest clue because you've been Kony'd to your keyboard
Hey, I wonder despite all that if Hamas regrets Oct. 7th?. [checks news] Nope.
Gaza was am open air prison before the October 7th attacks. Prisoners might have a bad time after a prison riot, but such actions dont happen without context.
Clearly violence on innocents is justified then /s
Al-Aqsa flood was a fully legitimate and legal attack against an occupying force. You might as well ask the Polish Jews if they regret the Warsaw Uprising.
Innocent civilians are not an occupying force.
When they're the people who've stolen your homes and land, they are.
And anyone that thinks that is a terrorist. See how easy it is to spout BS to avoid taking responsibility for evil actions?
My position is the position of international law. Hamas had and has every right to attack Israel, Israel does not and did not have the right to attack Palestine.

man the internet fucking sucks now
No, just ML fascists and their alts.
yeah, and they're the reason why lmao
