    Some of us just don’t think supporting genocide is something that should ever be done. As a Canadian I get that genocide support is win/win for you, but some American’s see it differently.

      So just to make sure, I am not American and I am wondering if I get this right. If prompt by the choice between Biden who (at least from your pov) supports genocide and trump who said clearly that he would let Russia take Ukraine, and has been completely silent on the matter which aligns with his exclusive focus on america, and had Israeli minister of national security express support for him as he expects trump to give them for freedom to fight Hamas, you want someone who supports Palestine to vote for trump? Just wondering.

      Edit: trump stated that Israel would have to “finish the problem” in Gaza. So trump is now vocally supporting the events described by you as a genocide.

      I’m scared of dipping my toes in this batshit crazy thread, but why is supporting genocide a win-win for Canadians?

      Just what do you think Trump is going to do, as an open supporter of Israel?

      The difference is you’ll have genocide PLUS Trump domestically.

      It’s not that hard.

      Remember that time Trump moved the American embassy to Israel to Jerusalem as a show of support for Israel? Pepperidge farm remembers.

        America is giving money to Israel which is genociding Palestinians in Gaza.

            This point is so frequently missed, some presidents are harder on Israel than others but you’d be silly to think any US leader in this situation would act much different.

            Historically, Nixon bailed Israel out, caused an oil crisis. Carter tried, Reagan fucked it all up and blamed Israel. The Bushes, Clinton, and Obama all tried but Trump blew it. He left Palestine out of the Accord and moved our embassy to Jerusalem, which stoked the fires.

            Then, foreign aid is genocide.

            Biden is not really confronting, as he keeps selling weapons to Israel and bypassing congress for that.

            He has to cut weapons supply to Israel, as Holland, Belgium, Japan, Italy and Spain are doing since the ICJ ruling for Israel to prevent genocide source

            Holand now has stopped selling F35 parts to Israel to not be complicit with genocide.
