    I am just amazed that anyone believes it wasn’t Israel considering the context this time. Assuming one accepts that they have:

    • Done 3 (?) days of Blanket bombing

    • Made the “Subhuman” comment

    • Cut off water, etc.

    • bombed refugee transports

    Like, we accept these events have happened but someone is still offering them the benefit of the doubt?

    Maddening

    Biden fucked up so hard with this. Whether in this war or the next the global South is uniting. Internally, people do not support Israel like they need them to get away with this level of denial and propaganda. And they are now going to pit themselves against fucking doctors from MSF, one of the most highly respected western organizations, who are providing unequivocal firsthand testimony that these were airstrikes. They will pay.

      I suppose by airstrike you mean carried by a jet and not by a rocket? I’ve been busy lately and can’t follow the news too much, which is both a blessing and a curse. I should also check the MSF report as a source to use against libs

    “based on what I’ve seen, it appears as though it was done by the other team.”

    I’d expect a politician to spin some better bullshit than this. If Hamas was using the hospital to fire rockets we would be looking be seeing satellite or drone images of it. Instead we are left with the implication that Biden has a wealth of intelligence that is just too much for our tiny minds to handle.

      Anyone who votes for any member of either party in the US (or of any party in Europe that has not unequivocally sided with Palestine and denounced the criminal Zionist regime) is not just racist and chauvinist but pro-genocide. And yes this includes even those few Democrats who have nominally spoken out against the genocide, because despite their statements they still choose to be associated with and support a party that is pro-genocide, thus they are complicit in aiding and abetting in war crimes and crimes against humanity.

        Wholeheartedly agree… How is dropping a jdam on a hospital the lesser evil? Fuck the system, I want no part in it that I can avoid.

        I meant to say that the Dems/ libs pretend not to be racist and evil. It should be made apparent that they are

          Exactly. There is no lesser evil in the “duopoly” because there are not actually two parties, there is only one corporate uniparty, the party of fascism, war and imperialism. It simply wears two masks depending on which portion of the population it is attempting to deceive. The only lesser evil is to vote outside of that uniparty.

            because there are not actually two parties

            “The United States is also a one-party state but, with typical American extravagance, they have two of them.”

    “I was deeply saddened and outraged by the explosion of the hospital in Gaza yesterday, and based on what I’ve seen, it appears as though it was done by the other team, not you.”

    Biden earns his war crimes medal, just like every US president before him.
