updated as of yesterday (July 21): based on a statistical model developed by a prestigious medical journal called The Lancet, Israel has killed roughly 434,800 people in Gaza since the country’s military started to attack the territory on 8 October 2023. That’s 20.7% of Gaza’s entire pre-conflict population dead. Over half are women and children.

I honestly can't say I disagree with you on this. Voting blue is more a stay of execution than a solution. I voted 3rd party for decades. But I'm at the point now where the Republicans just need another sound defeat.

I left the USA 25 years ago because I saw this coming with Bush Jr. I have been talking about fascism coming to the USA since then. I dont really see anything stopping this short of a full uprising. But at least we can have a rest in the march to fascist autocracy, right?

Nope, the Democrats are also in full support of this genocide.

Yeah sorry I forgot what thread we were on. You will get no help from the US on the genocide unless you get someone amazing like Sanders elected as president. Even then, no one will likely work with him on it.
