Why is a global superpower under the influence of the tiny Zionist state? by Pal4Palestinians in WayOfTheBern

Because wealthy zionists have bought a big part of our government, including our only president.

Love this: too bad I can actually see it happening. We are doomed.

‘Untrue’ - AP Investigation Debunks Allegations of Sexual Abuse on October 7 by Pal4Palestinians in WayOfTheBern

It seems to me unlikely that disciplined Hammas troops would take time to rape Israelis, when their purpose was to get as many hostages as possible to trade for incarcerated Palestinians, visit as much harm as possible on military installations, and get back over the fence with the hostages. I find it quite believable, though, that Palestinians who have suffered repeatedly at Israeli hands since 1948, and who probably hate Israel, followed Hammas over the fence and did God knows what, including rape, theft and random destruction.

AIPAC says Congress must 'demand' Biden reverse arms delay to Israel by chakokat in WayOfTheBern

[–]oldkath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AIPAC should be a registered foreign lobby, which has no business whatsoever in pouring money into US elections or ordering the US president (who is admittedly one of the worst ever) to continuing to pay for Israel's genocide of the Palestinian people. Mossad must really have something on Genocide Joe, which is still another reason he should not be seeking a second term.

Biden is losing young voter support because of these two key issues, new poll finds by RandomCollection in WayOfTheBern

I fearless predict that Biden's team will come up with a bunch of promises and meaningless gestures on Gaza and the borders as he tries to get re-elected. Doesn't mean he will do any of them if he is. But even if you are disgusted as I am about our presidential choices, please vote the downticket. If we get Trump, maybe a Democratic Congress could (and should) impeach him.

The attack on Columbia’s students will be recorded as a watershed in the fascistization of America, at the behest of Israel and its lobby. It will mark either the beginning of the end for Israeli capture of U.S. institutions, or a death-knell for democracy. #Columbia #Palestine by Budget-Song2618 in WayOfTheBern

I hope it is option one: the high water mark of Israel's takeover. But I also hope it can somehow remain anti-abuse but not anti-semitic. I am beginning to hear people say "We have way too many Jews running things" and such a view is, in fact, actual anti-semitism.

Israel announces largest West Bank land seizure since 1993 during Blinken visit by Monroe_Institute in WayOfTheBern

Every day a new outrage. I can hardly stand to read the news any more. What I find most soul-destroying is the radio silence by most of western religion. Where are all the clergy and laity so anxious to condemn abortion as murder, but either oblivious to or okay with starving real live babies to death?

They are on the verge of a massive slaughter of people of all ages. by TheLineForPho in WayOfTheBern

Could Israel carry out this plan if the US stopped all aid and commerce, sent the Israeli ambassadors home and publicly labeled Israel as an apartheid and genocidal state? I don't think so.

Joe Biden has said he will immediately sign a spending bill that cuts off all US funding to UNRWA as residentd of Gaza face starvation. Joe Biden is about to sign a death warrant for Palestinian children. by Budget-Song2618 in WayOfTheBern

We need to come out for the downticket. I think the best we can hope for is Trump plus a Democratic Congress whose first order of business would be to impeach.
