He vetoed cease-fire agreements that called for permanent cease-fires but without the release of hostages as a condition to the cease-fire*. All that does is give Hamas time to recoup without any stipulations, leading to an even longer war. They are a terrorist organization hiding behind Palestinians and hostages.

Listen, I am by no means a fan of Israel. Their treatment of the Palestinian people has been atrocious but, regardless of who is president, weapons will be sold to Israel by the US.

Your edit about democrats only being a player here because Trump is a fascist is a real problem. A problem that you can directly affect with your vote/non-vote.

*The release of hostages is mentioned but not as a condition… meaning the agreement called for a cease-fire with or without the release of hostages.

Doing what you can to save the larger number of people in this case is voting for the Democrats.

It is though. We’ve effectively been given the Trolley Problem, and instead of playing you’re choosing to walk away and whatever happens, happens, as long as you feel good.

I’m sure Biden feels fucking awful about what’s going on. But he was elected to do the job the best he can and unfortunately a psychopath that we have little control over is in charge of Israel. Until something can be done about him. America has to play nice.

Netanyahu wants Trump. Not voting Democrat gives him a better chance.

Again, it really sucks but the presidential election is a unfortunately two party.

I honestly don’t know how to write this so it doesn’t sound like I’m attacking you but I’m going to try.

Disclaimer, Kamala Harris hasn’t stated anything on her stance involving Israel/Gaza conflict yet (as the presidential nominee), so my statements below may be a non-issue for you come election time anyway…

While it might feel like “doing the right thing” by not voting or voting third party, you are giving a vote to Trump if you do so, which is worse. It fucking sucks that we have this shitty two party system and all of sane people who aren’t just “my team vs your team” hate it… but I really hope you decide that your vote won’t be for Kamala but against Trump, since he will be far worse, not only for Gaza but Ukraine as well.
