Israeli officials suggested that the increased military aid was part of a deal to get Netanyahu to agree to the Gaza ceasefire deal. Trump’s envoy for the Middle East, Steve Witkoff, has said he’s pushing for the full implementation of the agreement, but the ceasefire is very fragile as Netanyahu doesn’t want to implement the second phase.
ah yes the age old solution of giving killers weapons so they stop killing. never fails.
People who refused to vote for Harris because of her stance on Israel - THIS IS WHAT YOU WANTED!
Fuck off you disgusting piece of shit. Imagine being such a dumb fucking cunt you attempt to scold random voters for the Democrats decision to support genocide and claim it’s their fault somehow.
Hey, dipshit, who kept signing off on arms shipments the past fucking year? Hey dipshit, who declared a redline in Rafah only for nothing to happen? Who gave a deadline of 30 days for aid to increase, nothing improved, then they just meekly announced they weren’t doing shit as punishment?
she did nothing but indicate her intentions to do the exact same thing, just as biden before her
If enough people voted, the Democrats would have given people free health care, stopped financing wars, torture and genocide, improve public transit, boost public education, and lowered the cost of groceries. If only enough people voted for the Democrats, they could be in power and bring change. They just need a super majority to install a welfare state and turn into pacifists. Of course!
Well it’s certainly an improvement over the eight billion the Dems just sent.
I think they pretty clearly wanted the Democratic party to stop arming Israel, which did not happen, and probably wouldn’t have happened if they were elected, either, given they made no promises on it and gave no real indications of course correction.
This is like if the guy on watch duty on the Titanic spent a year screaming about how they’re heading directly for an iceberg, the captain did nothing, and then got mad at the guy on watch when the iceberg sank the ship.
It’s almost like nothing would change no matter who won and Israel was just a political pawn to help Trump win.
Wow, I can’t believe people weren’t more motivated to vote for “nothing will change no matter who wins.” Truly nobody could have foreseen and warned of this.
Just curious, if Kamala did the same arms transfer shortly after getting elected; how would you respond or what would you do?
Would you assure others that she is working tirelessly on a ceasefire despite her vow to always give them the ability to defend themselves?
As I have said before Israel was irrelevant to the election as neither candidate was going to act differently. It was only used as a weapon by conservatives to strip votes from Harris.
You mean it was a lay up for Harris she refused to capitalize on because she personally received too much money in bribes.
The people who told Democrats for months to change position were Democrats and people who worked in the democratic party, some of whom did so for decades.
June Rose, the sole “uncommitted” delegate from Rhode Island, also said it was incorrect to assume the delegation members come from the fringes of the Democratic Party.
“We are Democratic professionals. I’m the chief of staff of the Providence City Council. I’ve made my career helping to elect Democrats and defeat Republicans who pose incredible risk to the future of our country,” the 29-year-old told Al Jazeera.
“But my relationship with the party will never supersede my relationship with my values, and in this case, my values and my party are in direct conflict.”
Rose named Eileen Abu Odeh, a toddler killed with her family in an Israeli air raid in Gaza, during the roll call. They explained the delegation’s presence at the Democratic National Convention can serve as a gut check for the party, as it prepares to chart a course forward on foreign policy.
“Our party cannot just make this week a celebration, and I think that that’s the tone that many in our party want to take,” Rose said. “But that celebration would be on the graves of innocent children who’ve been slaughtered.”
What if?

We only know that Bibi wanted trump to win.
I’m asking out of genuine curiosity, what are they doing besides shaming others? What’s done is done - we are here now.
If they had constructive or productive intentions it could apply to the current moment even with Trump in office.
There was no distinction between the candidates on this issue. Biden just sent $8 billion in arms less than a month ago. There were plenty differences between candidates, but this is not one.
Agreed. It was always just a way to manipulate democratic voters.
It was a hill Biden & the democrats didn’t need to die on. The last year in Gaza was inexcusable and gaslighting potential voters was embarrassing. Shame on the democrats for making genocide a wedge issue
Have you considered the possibility that this is not what people who voted against KKKlansmala wanted, but trump did it anyway?
He was very open where he stands, and even was complaining that Israel did not wipe Palestine faster.
Trump isnt open on anything. He says something then the opposite and then agree with both statements. This isnt an exception. He said some of the most inhumane shit about the palestinians i ever heard, and he also criticized Netanyahu harder than any potus ever did. If you say he is clear about this issue, please teach us because the rest of the world cant say the same. And to add some context, 1b is a very rookie number, to say at least. Biden did 8b a few days ago in a single move. Idk if hes testing the waters with the american public and will subsequently give more or if he is giving a farewell kiss to israel and wont send a penny from now on, but theres 0 chance any potus could go without paying tribute to aipac, even if meager
Ah yes, giving Netanyahu even more bombs is totally the right way to bring about a ceasefire and definitely won’t just lead to more Palestinians getting blown up.
Rare earth minerals in Israel?
Israels export economy is mostly diamonds and intelligence services honed via their genocide. So yes, but they also have the pee tapes.
He wants a new hotel.
Look at my story, I need you very much, please, my husband is unemployed and cannot do hard work because he underwent chemotherapy and has an artificial shoulder, I am Raghda from Gaza, I need $450 to pay the rent for a room we rented to protect us from the cold and rain after our house was demolished, this is the WhatsApp number +970598942611 https://gofund.me/0daf86a6
