    It was a logistical snafu. Other shipments are not delayed. CNN

    Back to your regularly scheduled Genocide.

      Just the weekly gaslighting from the Biden admistration that they’re not trying to help israel commit Genocide as hard as possible.

      Nothing to see here everyone. Don’t forget to vote for Genocide Joe in November!

        Nah vote for third party or trump because trump winning will absolutely help Palestinians and totally not hurt them greatly. /s

            You spend every waking hour on this cause so I hope you’re at least getting paid for it

              Biden spends every waking hour supporting this Genocide. I’ve said 6 months ago that the second he stops it is the second I stop defaming his Genocidal ass.

              Did he stop supporting Genocide yet?

                  If you live in the US or a close ally, you are complicit in the genocide of Palestinians.

                  If your strategy is to get people to vote for genocide joe by checks notes being condescending towards people who feel that genocide is a red line… you are just screaming into the wind mad that your politics are a dead end that nobody believes in anymore.

                  Genocide Joe needs to earn my vote and stop directly supporting a genocide while simultaneously spitting in the face of those raising their voices in alarm.

                  You want my vote? Easy pick up the phone and tell Netanyahu it’s over.

        Are you a Trump voter regardless of this issue? I think you are. That, or your just here parroting propaganda.

        No sane person is going to let Trump win over Biden because of this. Trump has openly supported Israel and their genocide more than Biden ever has or will.

          It’s always about letting Trump win with folks like you. Maybe if GJ was someone worth voting for you wouldn’t have to work so hard to convince people to hold their noses and vote for corporate trash.

          Yes he’s the lesser of two evils, that doesn’t make him good by default and the oh so earnest hand wringing of “this could be our last election” doesn’t actually help your case the way you (obviously) think it does.

          Were you tuned out of the last 6 months of Biden unconditionally supporting Genocide and pretending to wag his finger every week?

      Sanctions disproportionately hurt innocent civilians. Sanctioning individuals is one thing but entire nations shouldn’t be sanctioned. I thought we learned our lesson from Cuba but apparently not

      Edit: for all the neolibs and righties downvoting me, this probably won’t do much to convince you. For anyone else, here’s an explanation on why sanctions are a terrible idea:

      https://www.thenation.com/article/archive/sanctions-economy-foreign-policy/tnamp/

      Here’s an in depth look at why sanctions fail:

      https://www.jstor.org/stable/2539368

      Basically, the entire point of sanctions if to hurt civilians. The logic is supposed to be that they will rise up and force a political change due to being angry and, often, starving to death. But that rarely happens. We just end up torturing poor people while wealthy elites get by just fine.

        Isn’t that part of the point? If the populace suffers, government changes are more likely

          It’s still inhumane. It’s fine to starve people out via sanctions but not via bombings? There’s a reason people like Sanders continue to oppose sanctions

            That’s the inhumane condition you care about? Not the 34000 dead? Murdering journalists, doctors, food workers? None of that?

              Sanctions don’t stop that. So you have a genocide and a starving populace in a second country. JFC when did Lemmy turn into a bunch of neolibs?
