    Really? How?

    IIRC they acted as a go between Israel and Qatar to enable talks in the first place, and they threatened reduced support if Israel didn’t agree to a ceasefire. But those articles were from a month ago, and I cannot find them now.

    No, everything Israel wants.

    Do you honestly think if the US was like here’s $100 billion more Israel would turn it down? The US could send way more money.

    people like you will start fighting back instead of rolling over.

    Ah yes, let’s allowing a fascist dictator with absolute power to rise in order to potentially start a doomed rebellion because I don’t like something the government is doing. You think 1 million Palestinians potentially being killed is bad, but you’re A-OK with starting a civil war that will result in 10s of millions of deaths? You really have to get your priorities straight.

    the independents who didn’t fall in line

    Them, I blame them. Sanders would not have won a general election, he is too far left for the vast majority of Americans. But the minority that did support him would have been enough to tip the scales in the Dems favor, allowing the country to avoid the ultra-right wing hell it now finds itself in.

      That doesn’t make any sense. If independents prefer Sanders and Republicans hate Hillary, then you’re only going to lose voters by alienating independents.

      Republicans were never going to vote for her.

      I see what the problem is now. You legitimately believe Hillary was a better choice than Bernie against Trump, even though she lost.

      I can’t reason with people like you because you refuse to see reason. You will do whatever the establishment tell you to because they’re always right and you just have to go along with it (even when they’re wrong.)

      Sorry, this paragraph just oozes reddit-brain. I’m gonna let you think on why rational people won’t take such charged comments seriously. I’d be here all fucking night unraveling this bullshit like it’s a Calabi–Yau manifold.

      Anyways, I’ve said my piece. You seem like no matter what you’re going to believe you’re correct, so I’ll just let you have the last word and we can be done with it.

      Goodbye.

        You’re forgetting the moderate Dems, 60 million + people, and a much larger voting Bloc than the socialist independents.

        Hillary was a better choice than Bernie against Trump,

        Yes, Bernie would have certainly lost too. And lets not forget Hillary actually did win the popular vote.

        Why do you think Bernie would have beat Trump given the vast majority of US voters are right wing?

        why rational people won’t take such charged comments seriously

        What do you think a resistance would lead to if not armed conflict?

        You seem like no matter what you’re going to believe you’re correct

        Funny how often stubborn people who refuse to see reason say this. Nice projection.
