Congratulations, Trump is in office and Israel is gunning down Lebanon citizens and buying 1000 lbs bombs again for the first time in years, news outlets saying Israel is prepping to annex and settle even more lands in the Gaza strip.

You failed to back the peacekeepers and now so much more blood will be on your hands as a result.

The only option is all hands on deck, push the envelope even if we don't agree with whats in it. We can have campaign finance reform and tax the rich if you would only do that one thing.

What peacekeeper? Biden was supplying the genocide too. It's a principled stance. We won't vote for genocide whether it's red or blue running the show. And no, the blood isn't on my hands since I didn't approve, or purposely give my tax money to Israel. Biden, and now Trump are doing that.

On top of that the Biden administration had 4 years and confirmation by the Supreme Court he could essentially do whatever he wanted as president. And he still did nothing but had over the case to a DoJ that did fuck all about it.

Also you glossed over my other points of Biden's failures.

Edit: You also realize Israel was literally bombing civilians in Lebanon when Biden was president right? Or did you alreadh forget ablut the pager bombs Israel planeted in Lebanon? And Biden still gave them a shit ton of weapons, and only effectively blocked one type of weapons shipment as a political maneuver.

I literally just told you: Israel is buying more and bigger weapons than ever. Your ignorance of that simple fact, that the genocidal Israeli government backed Trump for presidency specifically so they could be even more violent, just shows you don't care about all of the women and children who die as a result.

And I'm telling you the genocide is largely unchanged. The only difference is the names on the weapons heading into Israel and the rhetoric. But anyone paying attention knows that the rhetoric changes nothing. The only difference is that the US is mask off about supporting genocide now.

[–] finitebanjo 0 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

And the size and the amount of those weapons. And that the new admin explicitly sides with Israel expansion.

So basically just the thousands more people who will be killed, as a direct result of people like you refusing to support the alternative, aside from that no difference.

An amount that is largely the same, and the bombs that were already sent from Biden leveled the vast majority of Gaza along with its population. You've also failed to address any of the other points I've made, so this is where I stop wasting my time.

No, Biden admin did not sell *2000 lbs bombs to Israel. SOURCE
