Biden, Harris, and Blinken are able to continue to posture as brokers of peace while sending billions of dollars in weapons to Netanyahu’s soldiers.

Breaking this cynical cycle requires getting honest about Biden and Harris’s roles in this blood-soaked charade.

    The bad-faith terms of the latest proposal are just the beginning. Hamas is unlikely to agree to the terrible new conditions that Blinken has put on the table, and that rejection will in turn enable Biden, Harris, Blinken, and Netanyahu to further blame Hamas for “rejecting peace.” This will then buy Netanyahu more time to continue bombing, starving, and killing Palestinians.

    Then the cycle will repeat itself again, with Blinken soon returning to the Middle East for yet another round of so-called ceasefire negotiations, while the U.S. continues to send Israel even more weapons for its war.

    Democrats are not only providing the weapons. They are also actively providing diplomatic cover and spouting propaganda for israel to make their Genocide possible.

        This Trump guy sounds really evil. I am glad the Democrats stopped all the Genocides Trump was committing in 2020. Except the one in Gaza. which according to my Democrat sources started under Trump and is 100% the sole responsibility of Trump because he made a phone call.

      It’s a perfectly good source. Is there anything about their argument that you find unsound, or is it simply because it makes you uncomfortable?

      Bizarre seeing The Intercept labelled as a trash websisde with trash opinions. I don’t even agree with the article’s main points but I’d hardly call the source or opinions trash.

      Lemmy is weird sometimes, like just packed with weirdly snobby folks.

    See, the US government is trying to end the genocide! Once there are no more victims to genocide, there won’t be any more genocide!
