Well, they’re wrong. Regarding Israel, their combination of action when none was warranted and inaction when it was the morally imperative bare minimum, is responsible for large scale targeted atrocities against people just like you and me. Anything short of complete condemnation, a total cutoff of military support, and harsh diplomatic consequences is inexcusable and will doom us to the wrong side of history. I say this as a Jew whose family is much smaller than it should be because of a similar disregard for human life. This has got to stop, and Blinken and Biden had a chance. They chose not to take it.

If all those dead Palestinians weren't dead, they might disagree. They're families almost certainly do.
Imagine thinking kamala's loss has a fucking thi g to do with palestine.
Stop smelling your own high horse farts.
Palestine issue is a drop in the bucket to the average american.
What are you even talking about? I didn't mention Kamala Harris or the election.
While I would prefer that he and criminals like him would have self awareness and feel contrition, I’m perfectly fine with Blinken believing this as we lower the fucking noose.
Did you say Abe Lincoln?
No I said "Hey Blinkin!"
Oh, not A. Blinken?
Do you know Praying Mantis?
A. Blinken?
