this was on purpose. the World Central Kitchen notified the IDF about their movement, and their vehicles were clearly marked. there is no way this was an accident. the IDF purposely killed aid workers delivering food to Gaza. if this isn't an indicator of their genocidal intentions, i don't know what is

It also wasn't just 1 car, they hit 3 separate WCK cars 1km apart from each other. Killing 7 international aid workers.

Jesus took a shit. And people are buying Israel's story about it being an accident?

[–] jonne@infosec.pub 13 points 7 months ago

The ones whose paycheck depends on believing it, yeah. Everyone that received support from AIPAC, the mainstream media, etc. They just need the thinnest excuse to parrot and somehow manage to live with themselves.

This was 100% about stopping the WCK food shipment from cyprus, https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/second-ship-loaded-with-gaza-aid-cyprus-says-charity-2024-03-14/

Stop the genocide now!

Worse, they purposely targeted and killed an American, and our government will still supply them weapons. Israel can do whatever the hell it wants with no punishment. I’m so disgusted at this point. Definatley not voting for Genocide Joe now.

would you rather Trump be in office instead?

I want neither of the two main options. Period. And my vote will reflect that. And if this country were sane, everyone’s vote should reflect that.

By the way, this is NOT the way you get votes for biden. Responding to unhappy voters with “BUT TRUMP” just makes us want to stay home. Get your candidate to earn my vote if trump scares you so badly. Because the democrats will just run someone MORE abhorrent four years from now.

I plan to flee the country if trump wins and have the means to do it. So if you’re so concerned, get the Democrats to shame their candidate into arguing for a ceasefire.

that's all well and good, but one of the two will get in office no matter what. might as well suck it up and vote for the lesser evil.

besides, you said yourself which one you'd prefer. you'd flee the country if Trump got into office, and you acknowledge that the Democrats can be shamed into doing the right thing (unlike the Republicans). if it makes the choice more palatable, think of it not as a vote for someone but a vote against someone. not voting at all is complicity.

You lot have been telling me this crap since i was old enough to vote. I’m done.

I’m voting green in reality because i actually agree with their policies. They give me something to vote FOR, not a boogyman to vote against. Things will never get better with scare tactic voting and it’s high time you woke up and learned that.

Maybe 4 more years of Trump will wake you up but i doubt it. You’d vote for fucking Larry Hogan or Chris Christy if they had a D after their names.

If every politician we can vote for is evil or a slightly 'lesser' evil, we need to do much more than vote anyway.
