Summary

Trump plans to lift the Biden administration’s freeze on supplying 2,000-pound bombs to Israel and reverse sanctions against Israeli settlers.

    Hehe. As planned. Thanks to people who refused to vote for Kamala. Leopards don’t see political parties, all faces taste the same.

        What’s changed is all hope for cancelling weapons to Israel is gone. Kamala, while certainly not a great option, could at least be pressured.

          You were foolish to have hope in the first place because if tens of thousands of innocent children getting blown into little pieces wasn’t enough to stop weapon sales, nothing is. Thinking that Harris “could be pressured” is just magical thinking because she, nor Biden, had any intention of stopping their aid to Israel to the point that they were willing to hand over control to the Republicans rather than even saying anything negative about Israel’s conduct and their participation in it.

            Well, you’re not wrong. But Trump will make things over there (and locally) significantly worse in the long run. Yes, worse than it is now. All the while talking about progress, and how much better things are.

            In the end, all the land will be handed over to Israel, and developers will turn it into a resort town. Anyone left alive will be a servant to the wealthy.

            And my hope was “could be pressured” as opposed to “no chance in hell.” We cut our nose of to spite our face.

              I didn’t say “everything is hopeless” I said that Biden, Harris, and Trump were never going to do anything but aid in this genocide.

                “You were foolish to have hope in the first place”

                This is the trolley problem. Harris was the path of less suffering, simple as that.
