The grandson of President Eisenhower who is the name for Camp David is a bit younger than them too.

Yeah, how did the Bernie magic work out for Jamaal Bowman? Somehow he is the best candidate but can’t get people to attend a rally for an incumbent Democrat let alone vote for him.

Trump used Palestinian as a slur & they are laughing with him. Not sure how serious anyone is supposed to take them.

Right now its your definition of genocide that should be weighed in context. We may have a international determination on it coming up, so I’m going to wait for that process. War is awful and this one has some particular aspects that are awful but there are realities to contend with too. How in this world does Israel have bomb shelters all over the place yet Gaza had none yet had insane amount of tunnels that are even reinforced. Ukraine is important & the conflict matters to them too because they are losing out on artillery supplies as the US is stockpiling in Israel to prepare for increased hostilities in the region. Iranian weapons need to be stopped more so than US supplies IMO.

The aspect of no candidate available, please consider finding one. Its a shame that the organizations that get pro-Palestinian label don’t hold forums or solicit candidates questions on their support. Quite frankly its embarrassing because the GOP has done this for well over half a century from races to the highest office to local elections. That is something that would really help in advocacy & fundraising to build up a slate of options. Waiting to start in a reactive manner & not until a large election does give people reservation about the sincerity. Its not like this is really a conflict. Gazans were in a huge protest during the Trump admin against Israel & Hamas during the Trump administration after he recognized Jerusalem as Israel’s capitol(Dems have always wanted this but refused to pull the trigger).

Democrats have always been at the table for both parties here & have a long history of advancing Palestinian rights when its not popular but we expect both sides to take responsibility. Biden has done a lot and continues despite the critique.

Here is pretty interesting article on the stockpile if it helps. https://www.justsecurity.org/91213/the-war-reserve-stockpile-allies-israel-explained-why-congress-should-not-expand-it/

They were trying to hammer railroad strike & the train derailment before. Funny most of them are rose twitter & DSA types that are facing a budget shortfall & are demanding that the Union workers they have on staff voluntarily resign so they don’t have to pay benefits or negotiate with them.

Even from a moral choice Biden is the better option. You get someone pressuring for a Two-state solution keep aid flowing to Palestinians as well as to support in helping Ukraine who are being genocided by their definitions. While also supporting international efforts to re-open one of the busiest shipping channels so places like Africa & others experiencing hardships that will have trouble maintaining safety & stability if prices of common goods increases.
