      the guy who:

      • moved the American embassy to Jerusalem
      • has never once uttered the words “cease fire”
      • has never lamented any Palestinian deaths at all
      • reversed US’s position on Israeli settlements in Palestine

      yeah, more.

        So just like what is happening now.

        • won’t hold israel accountable for war crimes
        • won’t allow UN to step in
        • continue to keep aid from going in

        Again how can it get worse for those in Gaza?

          If you genuinely don’t think a Trump Presidency could make the situation any worse, you have no right to talk over anyone who’s actually been paying the miniscule-est amount of attention it would take to know better.

              America joining in because Trump doesn’t think the jews are finishing the job fast enough?

              West Bank being fully annexed and the 200,000 Palestinians who’ve been able to hold on thus far being deported to Gaza for more bombings or to Jordan where the royal family was already selling them out even before a civil war broke out over it leading to the king’s assassination?

              Trump intentionally provoking war in the entire region because his followers are part of a fucking death cult and think it’ll cause the biblical battle of Armageddon and make their sky daddy come home?

              Evangelicals convincing Trump to begin a program to settle christians in the region to refound the crusader kingdom of Jerusalem?

              Have you fucking read any of Project 2025, use your damn imagination and odds are they’ve already come up with even worse and adopted it as official platform policy.

              Get off your soapbox and prevent the greater harm, or quit pretending you have any business calling yourself an ally while being a whiny wilted little cunt ass about how it’s everyone else’s job to make you want to for your own feel goods.

                    “Multiple released Palestinian detainees have testified they and others, including children, were subjected to rape, gang-rape, other forms of sexual violence as well as psychological and physical torture by both male and female Israeli soldiers and medical staff.”

                    “In one highly publicized incident, leaked CCTV footage showed Israeli soldiers gang raping a Palestinian detainee with a metal rod that caused him serious injuries to his anus and lungs.”

              Simple. It’s as bad as it is now despite Biden’s administration delaying arms, prohibiting aid being sent to illegal settlers, and constantly pushing for a peace deal. A Trump administration wouldn’t bother with any of that.

              Imagine how bad it would be with Trump patting Netanyahu on the back the whole time, shovelling arms over there as fast as the grift would allow, and subsidizing the settlements (now not illegal if the UN knows what is good for it). Precision munitions? Why bother when you could just carpet MOABs the whole district?

              See now how it will be worse?

              you are either supremely naive or a blatant trump shill. Israel still has many cards left to play in the genocide deck like cultural reprogramming, concentration camps, and mass executions.

          You have the right to ask how things get better for Palestinians if Harris takes office. While you’re at it please take time to ask how do things get better for Americans if trump takes office. The US president doesn’t just set the tone for Palestine. They have influence all over the world.

          If Harris wins and the day after the election Isreal signs a treaty won’t you just think for a second what that means

              How dare I ask what Americans will do as the result of an American election.

              Edit: why are Palistian lives in the hands of a foreign nation to begin with?

              Edit2: American hands. Sorry if you haven’t brushed up on your history but our track record is not great friend. You want to see America do better? It’s starts by not being ambivalent about every other political issue going on in this nation.

              Also it’s fine if you hate America, if you hate everything we stand for; you hate Kamala and you would like to see me piked personally but have the decency to look me in the eyes when you impale me. I’ll see right past you.

          Is that supposed to be a whataboutism? You mean the same administration that launched a national database for police misconduct? That one? They’re funding STATE cops? how? Or do you mean the feds beating up protesters like that time trump sent Homeland Security to abduct protesters off the street and detain them without charges, did The Biden admin do that too at some point because if they did I must have missed it. So what is your point exactly, that we should enable fascists because why fight it if bOtH SiDeS ArE thE SaME?

              But you are kidding yourself if not voting isn’t a vote for Trump. And you are kidding yourself if you think a right wing Christian nationalist party would send fewer bombs. They would send more “for Jesus” and I think you know that.

                All these people are convinced that Trump would be worse for Palestinians.

                And maybe they’re right, maybe Trump will send in straight up death squads. Maybe he’ll build vans that pipe the exhaust into the cargo area and ship them to tel Aviv. Maybe he’ll start sending the Israelis Zyclon b.

                But the fact remains. The last year has been the most deadly for Palestinians. Ever. More Palestinians have been killed in the last year than died during the formation of the state of Israel. More Palestinians have had their homes destroyed in the last year, then ever before in modern history.

                At this point, saying Trump would be worse for Palestine is like saying that Himmler would have been worse for the Jews. Possibly technically correct, but also a poor attempted genocide denial.

                  I’ve seen you comment that in a few places, and I don’t really think I disagree with you. It’s truly awful what is happening and has happened to Palestinians. It’s also awful that our government is, on average, indifferent and in bed with AIPAC.

                  I wish there were real leaders here with courage to lead and be better. I would much rather vote to support men and women like that than “which of these humans trash bags will do the least damage.”

                    I firmly object to people telling ME how to vote. Especially when it is clear they care more about a tax policy that will never pass the house, than they do about tens of thousands of dead children.
