After murdering everyone in Palestine under the Biden administration, the Trump administration moves the border line.

Which is worse, the line on the map?

Are you daft?

You really believe that the Biden administration gleefully murders children while trump will then come in as a fucking savior?

Netanyahu expressly wanted a Trump administration and even closely corresponded with him during the campaign. Moreover, no, the outlook under Biden was nowhere near as dire as what it's already shaping up to be under Trump, even if it was awful and an affront to any reason le persons conscience.

That's his opinion. The fact and not opinion is that the biggest military deal for Israel was made during Obama. He also blocked a resolution condemning illegal settlement. Neither a Biden or Harris ever condemned that

Bud, I'm too tired to care about arguing about reality with you. The entire settler movement and likudnik side of Israel is fully aligned with and happy about Trump. Disappearance of Gaza and West Bank entirely was extremely unlikely under Harris and is very likely under Trump. As is actual US troops side by side with IDF in the Levant in a very obvious very different way than they have been so far. Lot of people, perhaps an entire people, are very pprobability going to die.

You are blinded by your cult, same as trump cultists. It's extremely likely for Gaza and the West bank to disappear under both parties. Obama blocked an resolution condemning illegal settlements and gave the biggest military deal to Israel. Biden and Harris only goal from the cease fire is to get the hostage out than Israel can continue it's genocide. Everytime Israel do something wrong, the Biden administration gift new real on the ground support for Israel.

The fact that you consider the Palestinians struggling to survive in Gaza dead already.

North Gaza is being emptied as we speak. Ethnic cleansing does not require full murder of a population.
