You're all over the map with your post.
When peaceful protest doesn't work, disruption and force are necessary.
If opposition to genocide isn't a cause worthy of disruption, then what is?

I didn't realize that credited were weighted on the condition of support for a genocidal settler-colony on another continent.

The fact that Israel doesn't like the plan is an endorsement.

And the U. S. promised no further NATO expansion.
How'd that work out?

What Trump has laid bare is classic transactional mercantilism: access to Ukraines rare earth minerals, which Trump went on and on about exploiting in the interview.
Reminds me of...

No doubt, future historians will regard your denial of facts with great interest.
Plus, you forfeit the right to ever wonder how the Holocaust was allowed to happen, as there were people in Nazi Germany in the same denial that you are.

We all know what we've been seeing. It's genocide; the deliberate and systematic destruction of a people.
comment in response to
post
Who made you the arbiter of what's genocide?
Exactly no one.
The UN, ICC, HRW, B'Tselem, Amnesty International, and scores of Holocaust/genocide scholar all conclude that's what Israel has been doing.
Plus, they've admitted it.

The Democrats were complicit in genocide, so why would they support it, if it wasn't good enough for everyone else?
This is why the "Democratic" party must be supplanted by a party that will actually oppose evil.

Better to clean out the colonizers than the indigenous people.

#KidKillerKamala #HolocaustHarris' supporters were okay with her supporting genocide and were willing to accept the deaths of tens of thousands of Palestinians as an acceptable moral trade-off to no-orange-man.

That cackling harridan parroted lies about October 7th and refused to break with Biden over his complicity in genocide.

Will you stand up to the genocide lobby of AIPAC?

Biden was actively complicit in genocide.
He shit on the First Amendment rights of anti-genocide protestors. What democracy?
But TikTok was showing us Israeli atrocities and waking people up.

Biden was responsible for both.

"Tried."
But chose complicity in genocide.

"Asked by one reporter if he had any regrets about not enforcing red lines on Israel, Blinken said the Biden administration’s policies “were basically supported by an overwhelming majority of Israelis after the trauma of October 7”."
He admitted which country he was working for.

I support either the DNC becoming more populist or it gets supplanted by the Green party:

Your ad hominem attacks are unpersuasive.
Iran is standing up against genocide, the thing our tax dollars are funding.
Assad and Iran was fighting al-Qaeda and Daesh.
You don't have to like Assad to know that Israel and U. S. foreign interventionism are evil.

Genocide requires statements of intent. Show me where the Russian government stated a desire to kill all Ukrainians for being Ukrainian.
Stop trying to minimize Israel's actions.
comment in response to

Iran and Russia are legitimate states of their respective native peoples.
Not a fan of Assad, but Assad was the ELECTED leader during a civil war like Abraham Lincoln was, the latter of whoose body count was 620,000, by the way.

Palestinians are the indigenous people and Hamas is an indigenous resistance organization with the LEGAL right under international law to prosecute armed resistance against colonization and occupation.
Israel is a genocidal settler-colony.
No moral parity between colonized and colonizer.

Israel is a genocidal settler-colony. They aren't helping regional peace and stability.

How dare she! Having a man build you a 17-hectare mausoleum complex is a wife privilege, not a girlfriend privilege.

Right.
Israel is bombing Damascus without the pretense of an Assad regime threatening them.

So, like the U. S. presidential election, a choice of evils.

So, you have no idea whether using shame to coerce a child into fulfilling the aspirations that a parent projects onto the child, regardless of the child's interests, abilities, or talents is a good parenting strategy, is that correct?

That that justify the emotional damage?

Do you remember the aftermath of Libya?
Is that what you want for Syria?

Are you saying that using shame is a good thing?

Why does Assad owe Erdogan an audience?
Does Erdogan think they're back in the days of the Ottoman Empire?
I'm no fan of Assad, but Turkey/U. S./Ukrainian/Israeli interference undermine populist sentiment. Who chose HTS to govern anything?

So, you're saying that Black people lack the potential based on race?

You can't accuse people of being "academic underachievers" without solving for confounding variables, like underfunded schools and other barriers to success.

I'm boycotting Starbuck's because they support genocide.

You're defending foreign-backed social regressionist extremists and I'm saying that no one succeeding Assad will have legitimacy as long as outsiders are backing rebels and manning their ranks.
