“Israel’s far-right Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich has ordered preparations for the annexation of the occupied West Bank ahead of US President-elect Donald Trump taking office in January 2025.”
But Harris was responsible of this genocide!!! Turd said he would solve the war in a day!!!1!!1!!111!one!!1
The Harris campaign made the decision to not break from Biden on Israel, at the cost of a +6 points gain. That’s the fault of the campaign’s calculations to ignore those voters, take them for granted, and instead run to the right with Liz Cheney and having the most lethal Military.
I voted for Harris and told others to do the same. It’s still on the campaign. Blaming voters is just sowing division when we need unity and solidarity to fight against Fascism.
Quote
Our first matchup tested a Democrat and a Republican who “both agree with Israel’s current approach to the conflict in Gaza”. In this case, the generic candidates tied 44–44. The second matchup saw the same Republican facing a Democrat supporting “an immediate ceasefire and a halt of military aid and arms sales to Israel”. Interestingly, the Democrat led 49–43, with Independents and 2020 non-voters driving the bulk of this shift.

Quotes
Majorities of Democrats (67%) and Independents (55%) believe the US should either end support for Israel’s war effort or make that support conditional on a ceasefire. Only 8% of Democrats but 42% of Republicans think the US must support Israel unconditionally.
Republicans and Independents most often point to immigration as one of Biden’s top foreign policy failures. Democrats most often select the US response to the war in Gaza.
Let’s be honest, I voted for Harris. But her message was essentially:
“Vote for Kamala Harris. She will enable a slow genocide. But her opponent, Donald Trump, will enable a fast genocide. She is clearly the superior choice.”
Saying that Kamala would be better than Trump was objectively true. However, it was also just shit, brain-dead, zero-awareness messaging. You cannot practically run on a message of, “yes, I will enable genocide, but my opponent will enable it WORSE!”
It’s just a shit, poorly thought out message. Who actually is this for? Those pro-Zionist voters won’t be persuaded either way. Those who want to see the Palestinians genocided will go with Trump instead, as he’ll get the job done faster. Those opposed to genocide were asked to hold their nose and vote for someone who should be on trial at the Hague, simply because she was running against someone who deserves to be on trial at the Hague even more!
It’s like running a campaign saying, “yes, I have some Nazi tendencies, but my opponent is a full-on avowed Nazi. My opponent is objectively worse.”
A statement can be true, while also being just complete shit in terms of campaign strategy.
“Yes, my candidate is Mussolini, but her opponent is Hitler! Clearly a vote for Mussolini is better than a vote for Hitler!”
“Yes, my candidate is Mussolini, but her opponent is Hitler! Clearly a vote for Mussolini is better than a vote for Hitler!”
Why would you be criticising Mussolini if you didn’t secretly want Hitler to win?! I cannot possibly come up with any other explanation. You must be trying to trick us.
Harris was campaigning and bibi knew he had leverage, because the worse it got, the more anti-israel pro-palestine vote she’d lose. Lose-lose-lose situation for Harris, Palestine, anti-israel voters. That the left was not more strategic about this (e.g. Bernie’s stance, which was strategic), I blame on great russian disinfo and agitators, not just shit intrinsic takes from the left.
Yup. And she let him play her like a fiddle. And there are like, 3 anti-Israel voters in the US. Harris lost because of anti-genocide voters, not because of anti-Israeli voters. You seem to be implying that anti-genocide = anti-Israeli.
If you believe that the only way a person can be an Israeli is if they support the massacre of innocent civilians, then you are racist anti-Semitic trash that doesn’t deserve to live. If that is the case, please chain yourself to a large rock, and throw the rock in the ocean.
Take massive bribes from Israeli funders, actively fund a genocide that couldnt happen without our weapons, shut down palestinian voices in the campaign, and she supressed student free speech herself instead of supporting it.
But you’re saying she was going to be better than trump in all this huh. Either she failed to message whatever your talking about, or you’re talking nonsense. Theres a “trolley problem” for you.
But you’re saying she was going to be better than trump in all this huh
Yup. You got that right.
But it doesn’t matter. I’m not american and I already accepted that we’re heading to what probably means the extinction of our race (i still have some hope that I’m wrong but not that much). So you know wnat? I’m just gonna sit, grab some popcorn and enjoy the ride while he fucks his country over and over while he fucks climate over and over. At least i’ll go knowing that I tried to avoid it, not to accelerate it.
Yes, there’s a trolley problem and it seems pretty clear you picked the lane that ends up killing every single Palestinian.
I voted for Kamala, but be honest. The only difference between Kamala and Trump in terms of Palestine is that Trump supports a fast overt genocide, while Kamala supports a slow and quiet genocide. Neither of them care two shits if every last Palestinian is exterminated. Kamala just wants the genocide to be slow and quiet enough that she doesn’t have to answer awkward questions about it.
