It's incredible how little this is brought up. This was reported very early on in the war and everyone apparently decided to collectively forget about it.
That Trump's closeted supporters will keep lying. It was never about Palestine. It was about electing Trump, no matter the consequences they won't be the ones experiencing anyway. If Netanyahu miss the cue to ACTUALLY ethnically cleanse Palestine now, he is way less smart than he thinks.
Democratic candidates and their advisors are in the business (at least they should be) of getting elected. At the end of the day they have to be smarter
It truly needs to be more understood by people that Biden is a radical extremist on Israel in a way most other Zionist Dems aren’t. While most just want to maintain western hegemony and see Israel as an avenue for that, Biden has for decades gleefully cheered on the slaughter of civilians
https://bsky.app/profile/hannahpikanya.bsky.social/post/3lhkkowsvb224 his comments in the past were so extreme I really do think he has an ideological obsession with the Zionist mission and I have no clue why. He’s def an outlier and things would’ve been much less bad if a typical neoliberal like Harris was in charge instead
I think she still would’ve sucked on it overall but Harris I think would’ve been way more moderating and willing to reach out to the pro-Palestine voters if Biden wasn’t a toxic narcissist who loves Israel with a fervor breathing down her neck
It sounds like I’m exaggerating but in the 80s Biden gleefully celebrated the slaughter of Lebanese civilians and talked about how he’d murder every Canadian if canada ever threatened the US. It was so extreme that Israel’s far-right leader Begin gave a speech distancing himself from Bidens comments
This also shows that Biden could’ve done this the whole time and ended it in an instant. Although people sometimes make the (antisemitic) claim that Israel holds the power and is controlling the US, it’s really a vassal state reliant on the US to exist and can make Israel do anything.
The thing that baffles me is that I had so many people trying to tell me that "things are different" & "it wouldn't work now" & like... _Biden wouldn't try_. Not only is it wildly antisemitic, but it ignores that he couldn't even bring himself to make the gd phone call.
The craziest part is at the same time Ronald Reagan, seeing the slaughter, called Begin and threatened to withhold all US aid to Israel until it stopped. The bombing ended 20 minutes later.
It’s insane how Reagan is the good guy and Biden was the evil far to the right of him in this instance.
Looking at this from Europe, for more than one year I have been watching how Biden allowed, enabled and financed a massive killing of civilians in Gaza. He was a radical Zionist. The Democrats now blame those voters that they have pushed away. Remember the student protests?
I will never not be floored that the man complicit in letting people get infected by AIDs and die because he believed it was a punishment from God against gay people was somehow less of a ghoul about the sanctity of life compared to just about fucking anybody
This is the long term ramifications of constantly 'settling for the lesser evil'; if you make someone compromise enough times and they'll eventually ends up voting completely against what they actually wanted; that's how we ended up with trump even being allowed to run for office in the first place
Yeah 😬 I don't remember when it started sinking in for me, I wanna say late '23 or early '24. Everything he's said or done re Gaza makes so much more sense when you just assume he really genuinely hate Palestinians with his whole chest 🤢
The most pathetic thing is I do believe he was mad at netanyahu but not for being evil but for making Israel look bad on the global stage. He criticized begin for similar reasons where hes fine with genocide he just wants them to commit genocide in a way that they can get away with.
I feel like this memory holes the reaction to protests by those Dems. Despite most portrayals of the students and others involved, 99.9% just wanted the abhorrent violence to stop. They were mischaracterized and shut down harder than any movement I've seen. And that made now much worse.
Oh yeah I’m not giving the other Dem politicians a pass. They’re still evil too, and wanting Israel to succeed and do whatever it wants bc they’re scared of Muslim nations is white supremacist at its core. I just think most don’t have a true ideological commitment to Israel itself like Biden did
i'm glad biden ultimately went with the way more moderate plan of just absolutely demolishing gaza with american weaponry and sitting back whilst children were being sniped in their little heads
If you think funding and arming a genocide for 15 months isn't enough evidence to show Biden is pro genocide, there will never be enough evidence to convince you.
Trump is talking about "relocating" 1.5m Palestinians from Gaza. When the Biden administration proposed the ethnic cleansing plan there used to be 2m Palestinians in Gaza where did they go?
Comments
You know it was completely funded by US taxpayers money under the Biden admin, right?
And your logical conclusion is to blame everyone else for the genocide and the Trump win?
It's Qanon for people who won't admit they fucked an entire population.
Y'all are depraved
I'm Catholic/Baptist. Guilt issues.
Look at this shit.
Look. I voted 3rd party in 2016. And I voted GOP a lot before that.
I own my part in this disaster.
That's what grown ups do.
Me on the 2nd half: "Damn! She has sources."
It’s insane how Reagan is the good guy and Biden was the evil far to the right of him in this instance.
This is a sentence that should be impossible to truthfully make, no matter which person they're referencing who claims to be even a little liberal.
In this world, it is absolutely true
She hitched her wagon to genocide and we will pay the price
and he thought biden was too bloodthirsty.
We do not know how it was similar. We don’t know who said this. We don’t even have a direct quote for the anonymous source.
But you’re gonna run with “this was really Biden’s plan.” Okay sure.
The reality behind that statement (if there is any) could be damned near anything.
