I’m starting think that when Biden said “I am a Zionist” the career federal politician actually DID know the context.
Biden would fuck around do a coup right before an election if it helped Israel
He obviously cares more about their right wing governments success than preventing trump
Biden couldnt care less what Americans want. Harris is a sock pupet and Blinken will be floated next. There was an astroturfed surge of comments on reddit a while back saying Antony Blinken should be the next American president. He’d be even worse than Biden/Harris. The Democratic party corporation will definitely push him as the presidential candidate in 2028 or 2032. (Assuming the bribes from AIPAC are rich enough, which is always a safe bet.)
Harris is a sock pupet
Hard disagree. Harris has already distinguished herself on Gaza as compared to Biden here (in terms of how her policies would be different).
Has she said she’s stop shipping them weapons and breaking US law about enabling regimes plausibly commiting war crimes?
No, right. Please correct me if I’m mistaken about that.Has she said she’s stop shipping them weapons
As per the headline on https://www.israelhayom.com/2024/09/18/harris-supports-pausing-arms-shipment-to-israel/
Harris ‘entirely supportive’ of using arms as leverage on Israel
So…
Please correct me if I’m mistaken about that.
Happy to have done so!
No, right.
Even though this was a yes, she absolutely has room to go more here, and I hope she does.
and breaking US law about enabling regimes plausibly commiting war crimes?
This one is oddly specific. So if Harris doesn’t exactly and precisely have that one specific view, then she would be a sock puppet no matter how far apart her beliefs are from Bidens?
On https://www.opendemocracy.net/en/us-elections-kamala-harris-biden-gaza-israel-war/ there are some specific examples of how she’s grown apart from Biden (while acknowledging that it’s not quite enough and suggesting that she should go even further).
This one is oddly specific. So if Harris doesn’t exactly and precisely have that one specific view, then she would be a sock puppet no matter how far apart her beliefs are from Bidens?
Oddly? you say? The Leahy laws are specific. Have you heard of those? And you ship weapons or you dont. You see nuance there huh. Thats telling. Harris has committed to being “concerned about” food aid and thats it. Otherwise she has followed the Hasbarah playbook to a T. I keep seeing people hopeful she will chart a different couse, when she has explicitely stated she will continue the curret course. I think people are filled with Hopium about her pruposefully vague sentiments. She has simultaneously parroted the typical Hasbara script, stating that all of this started on Oct 7, that Israel wants its hostages back, and that Israelis have a “right to defend themselves”. She has also talked down to student protestors. She’s accepted AIPAC donations.
You quoted me a link from a tiny Israeli site that has a yellow war ribbon in their logo.
“Israelhayam” a far right low factual reporting website. That one of your favorites? I see on their front page its all war salivating israeli audience stuff. You Israeli? https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/israel-hayom/So you’re pushing Israeli propoganda. In their article they talk about a threat to pause shipments in May, in an article published in September. A single threat to pause that wasnt actually carried out, was it. Biden pretends to push back but he never has actually pulled the trigger on any actual pushback. And a pause – essentially a delay in shipping, Same as your amazon package getting delayed. Even if it was true and not made up, its is a meangless performative gesture at best. Biden has used exactly zero of his levers to move toward peace, and 100 percent of his levers to encourage the expansion and impunity of a bloodthirsty genocide and ethnic cleansing.
And Harris has indicated that she will continue on the same course he has charted.
So democratic
This sent me down a rabbit hole trying to figure out what the deal is with Lebanese politics. Didn’t even know they’ve been without a president for two years
Joe Fucking Biden
Last time the west went in a civil war in Lebanon, it helped commit heinous massacres, where thousands of people were brutally slaughtered in refugee camps. Women and children were also raped and beheaded with the support of Israel.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sabra_and_Shatila_massacre
There is an animated movie “Waltz with Bashir” where the movie maker works to regain his memories as former IDF soldier, who ultimately provided the light under which the massacres where committed.
These plans of the US and their allies show not only a complete disregard for the political stability or safety of Lebanon. They make a point of dehumanizing the victims of their past crimes again.
What the actual fuck?
Looks like the US is going weaker and weaker 🤡
People can see war, aggression, genocide in real time.deleted by creator

This is what makes me optimistic that Hezbollah can be defeated for good. Other factions in Lebanon have a strong incentive to prevent them from gaining enough power to operate independently from the Lebanese government again.
Removing Hezbollah is only a priority because they’ve been a thorn in Israel’s side for decades. This is their attempt to weaken Lebanon for a complete takeover. Lebanon will become the new Palestine when that happens.
Yup.
Hmmm, I wonder how would you react if Russia elects the president in your country and tells you that it is for your own good. Would you be so happy?
do any of those incentives involve a pile of shekels and a promise that they’ll get preferential treatment in a puppet govt. installed by Israel?
Are you aware that Lebanon already has a democratically elected government, and that Hezbollah is not that government? It’s the private army of the Shia minority and effectively an Iranian occupying force. Most people in Lebanon had absolutely no say in its decision to attack Israel, but they are still suffering from the consequences of that decision.
