4) I'm not going to sit here and say it isn't an awful decision to make, because yes Biden and Harris didn't do shit for Gaza but now we have absolutely zero recourse. Now we have three countries in immediate crisis with absolutely no power to do a damn thing about it. How is that better?
Adding that it is curious liberals don't notice that Trump has adopted Biden's approach to Israel 100%: "scold" Netanyahu without results, announce ceasifires that never happen, use air drops to deflect criticism while helping Israel block the UN and starve Gazans. No ice cream but no different.
One way to look at this is a version of the trolley car problem: We were all on a speeding bus or trolley aiming at tens of thousands of children in a crosswalk. Yes, I yanked the emergency brake, knowing people aboard the bus would be killed, the trolley was unlikely to stop completely and >>
2> the bus might spin out and kill all the kids. But I felt we had no right to close our eyes to keep going for our safety. We're a rich nation with lots of ways to utilize our influence and power to solve our own problems. Palestinian kids are poor and defenseless. I won't keep killing them for us.
3>You are not without resources to stop the genocide, and to stop Trumpism. You survived his inauguration (actually so did 2 million Palestinians who got a ceasefire). The collapsing of American democracy and American empire is a crisis Americans made and have to spend their own lives to fix.
Sorry -- I just think it's crazy to think we have no power, but maybe you don't have power.
