I accidentally deleted my comment when I went to edit it. My apologies.
Miriam Adelson is one of the Trump campaign’s chief financiers. She pledged the Trump campaign in the neighborhood of $100m to support Israel’s annexation of the West Bank. That would be direct acceleration of the genocide.
Adelson previously donated close to $100m to Trump support moving the embassy back to Tel Aviv, which Trump gleefully supported.
The dislike for Trump crosses party affiliation and traditional right/left dichotomies. That is to say that there are A LOT of Republicans that dislike Trump and don’t see him as an ally, or see him as quite the opposite, in fact.
Thank you.
Maybe I’m misunderstanding what you’re saying, but I don’t get any of that from your linked article. It clearly says, in the article you linked that Israel has openly said the return of the hostages will not end the war. It also says the Israelis didn’t attend the meeting in which this agreement was reached and they were contacted within the hour.
It sounds a lot like Bibi and Gallant want only want to finish the Nakba
Source?
That’s an interesting take. I love Cattle Decapitation’s old stuff but their newer stuff never really grabbed me.
Either way, to each their own. Cattle Decapitation is amazing either way!
Edit: I didn’t see that you specified “more approachable”. You’re 100% correct in that. It’s 5am here, sorry.
Have you ever seen Jon Stewart’s demolition of Crossfireon Fox? It was a similar show and Stewart wrecked them so badly that they never recovered. It was glorious.
I can’t seem to find the clip, but if you find the full video it’s worth a watch.
Edit: Crossfire, not Hardball
One of the candidates from the major parties will win. Period. One will gleefully do what he can to accelerate the genocide in Gaza and the West Bank. Israel has said they’re not concerned with Iran, and they shouldn’t be with all the weapons the west sends them.
Harris is currently the VP and can’t just openly go against the administration she is serving in and therefore is in a tough spot, I’d imagine. Do I think Harris will commit to a weapons blockade or any sort of immediate solution? Absolutely not.
I do, however, think that Harris will 100% be more open to measures to bring about a ceasefire through pressuring Netanyahu and the Israeli state. That’s the choice.
Nobody in US politics has a chance to stop the genocide instantaneously. That’s the fact. Nobody that will be elected can do that. Harris, I believe, will be far more open to measures that will bring about change.
Is there a perfect option? There never is.
