    Which would make Nikki Haley writing “finish them” on an Israeli bomb when Israel is already bombing vast numbers of civilians in Gaza about the most obvious, public and and direct call to completed genocide you could make, I think.

    Do you think she did it to make it more likely she’d be picked as Trump’s running mate/Secretary of State, or do you think she’s just pitching early to be the post-Trump leader, or is she just a run of the mill genocidal maniac?

      Who cares? Biden sent the bombs and Netanyahu is using them. She has no power here - they do.

      She’s evil as a general matter. But Biden and Netanyahu are worse regarding the current genocide

        You keep changing the subject away from Nikki Haley’s call to genocide. But I’ll bite again. The key question for American voters who care about Gaza is whether Trump or Biden are going to be worse for the Palestinians, because the election is on a knife edge according to the polls. Which do you think would be worse?

          Biden and Netanyahu are currently perpetrating genocide. Haley is not.

          What did Never Again mean after the Holocaust? Did it mean nothing?

              Biden is currently committing genocide. Which is the worst crime there is.

              Trump would also commit genocide.

              Biden needs to change his policy on this drastically. Why won’t he? If he doesn’t, he loses.

                Personally, I think it’s the Israelis who are committing the genocide with America’s support from pretty much all of the Republicans and most of the Democrats, but you didn’t answer the question: Up to now, Trump has a slight lead in the polls. Who would be worse for the people of Gaza, Biden or Trump?

                  It’s like asking if Auschwitz or Dachau is worse

                  Both need to be liberated

                    You don’t admit any moral difference between trying to slow the killing down and trying to speed it up, and the reason is that you’re only pretending to care about Gaza what you really care about is discouraging left leaning voters from voting so that your guy Trump can win.

                    You’ll deny it, I’m reasonably sure, but that’s the effect of your outright condemnation of Biden and your extreme head in the sand refusal to admit that the Republicans in general, and Trump in particular, are far more committed to the Israeli military and its aims, always have been and likely will be for decades to come.
