Israeli authorities and security forces have deliberately targeted Palestinian children, resulting in genocide and atrocity crimes in the Gaza Strip and war crimes in the West Bank, a UN independent commission of inquiry said in its latest report released on Tuesday.

    I don’t know why this is controversial. Pro-Palestine movement openly said they were not voting for Kamala because she was only 80% on their side, and now they have Trump. No candidate will ever be perfect. Vote smarter. Stop fighting with people who only agree with the vast majority your opinions.

        The fact you can’t tell the difference between Kamala and Trump is why you will never meaningfully have political power. The problem is you are dragging down everyone else who despizes the Trump administration and thinks Israel has gone way to far.

        Shame on anyone who helped put Trump in power then act holier then thou as he supports acts they label a genocide.

          Where did i say kamala and trump are the same? Typical cultist behaviour. I can tell the difference between trump and kamala and i can tell the difference between progressives and anti genocide and pro genocide like trump , biden and kamala harris

          Shame on anybody who don’t make a deal of the worst type of genocides and wesponize it to serve their political stupid cults interests

            This year, all I care about is winning a small amount of power in the Federal Government, so Trumpism isn’t running all 3 branches of government, which would also be to the benefit of Palestinians and not good for Benjamin Netanyahu who currently has cart blanche to do whatever he wants. I don’t care about having perfect candidates, I care about winning.

              This is not a praise of trump because any president has full power to recognize genocide and ban all weapons to Israel but facts show the intensity of the genocide is slower during Trump. The way you minimize the Gaza issue show that you never cared about Palestinians.

              During Biden

              70% of all structures in Gaza were damaged or destroyed 92% of all housing units destroyed or damaged 88% of school buildings were damaged or destroyed 80% of key water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) facilities Only 16 out of 36 hospitals were partially functioning, facing critical shortages of fuel, medicine, and clean water. 75% of agricultural land, including orchards and greenhouses, was damaged or destroyed

              If the same pace continued like during Biden, there would be nothing left in Gaza. Kamala said she would not change anything in Biden’s gaza policies.

                I guess if you can’t win an argument, you just make up the motives of your opponent.

                This issue and Democratic infighting is basically the only obvious way that MAGA stays in power for the next two elections.

                You make pronouncements from a fictional moral high horse, while doing way more damage to people you claim to support than if you just just sat home and did nothing. Nothing moral in that.

                  It is you who have not a single real argument. Opposing genocide is some fictional moral high horse? Actually the fictional moral high horse is the lesser of two evil bullshit rhetoric that you spew and that rherotic is why trump won. I love how you ignored the reality that biden was a lot worse than trump regarding gaza and you pretended to care about palestinians

                    There you go. You prefer Trump to Biden with regard to Palestine. That alone shows the brilliant intellect we are working with. Bibi Netanyahu famously loves when Dems are in power and has never stumped for Trump.

                    Your numbers only work if you completely ignore any events occuring during their presidencies and assume they have perfect control over a war waged 8000 miles away.

                    I guess you are still waiting on the Trump Gaza hotel to pop up too.

                    If you don’t know my argument…then why are you arguing?

        Centrists still refuse to admit that genocide was a losing issue, yes.
