If Biden doesn't want people saying the he supports genocide, he should stop supporting genocide.
When a centrist Democrat breaks out the insults, it's a surefire indicator they can't defend their positions on their merits. And since genocide is indefensible, insults are all centrists have. Not that they've ever had much else.
If your world is that black and white, you're part of the problem.
If you are willing to look the other way while the de facto head of your party is enabling genocide, you're not in a position to lecture.
I feel like genocide is pretty black and white, but if you wanna play in the 'grey area' of genocide that's your prerogative, just own it loud and proud.
It obviously goes without saying, but Biden does not support genocide.
He's selling weapons to Netanyahu which are being used to commit genocide.
That's supporting genocide.
The weapons are being used to remove Hamas. Its sickening seeing people stan hamas on here.
People equate removing Hamas with genocide. Its disgusting
That is how you remove Hamas, unfortunately it is the path Hamas has chosen.
It works if that's the entire goal.
That's what Netanyahu claims. But much of Hamas leadership is not in Gaza. He cannot accomplish his stated goal of wiping out Hamas by attacking Gaza. But he can kill a lot of Palestinians that way.
I'm curious.
Do you think he's not supporting Israel in their genocide of Palestinians, or do you believe Israel is not committing genocide?
Guess im not able to answer this question.
I fully support removing Hamas.
Removed for genocide denial.
It might be more accurate to say that he (or any other President) does not support genocide, as long as it does not go against American interests.
Unfortunately.
