There was actually a lot of enthusiasm for her. But she didn’t change his campaign. She ran it the exact same way. And his campaign was already causing people to disengage. I remember in the spring he was trying to celebrate the economy and his advisors whined to the press that the people didn’t agree with him. Did they change that messaging? No they doubled down and told their base they were wrong. Their financial trouble was just Republican propaganda.

Which is insane for a political campaign.

You should not have added them before, Hamas is not an Islamic apocalypse cult. And you’re so insistent on using 10/7 to make the Palestinians out as subhuman that you missed I already gave you the answer to that 2 days ago.

Speaking of which it’s been 2 days and you are clearly committed to making Palestinians look like villains while ignoring reality. You’ve also come up with some of the most ham-handed attempts at gotcha questions I’ve ever seen, so I’m going to call it here.

You just can’t stop putting something in there can you? You’re desperately afraid the Palestinians have a good point.

Lmao. No. Because considering it in a vacuum is a bad faith exercise. I could similarly ask you about shooting clearly marked reporters just standing there. Or any of a hundred other things.

If you don’t consider the why then you aren’t really considering it.

That’s a Wikipedia article that’s not about resistance ideology. It’s sole citation for that line is a book written by a Jewish professor at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. You might as well ask a white man what he thinks of the indian problem in the 1800’s. Well we massacred an entire town but them doing anything about that is just plain wrong.

Maybe start somewhere like this, where people who have interviewed former IRA fighters talk about how they viewed violence as legitimate but that didn’t stop them from accepting peace once their goal of a free Ireland had been met.

Maybe go read a bit on that and see what it does for your understanding of the Isreal-Palestinian conflict.

Then you have completely missed the point of resistance ideology.

It does not follow logically because Ukraine is fully incapable of blockading and raiding Russia at will. At least until Russia forced them to militarize by invading them in 2014.

Not in our minds, but we aren’t in their shoes. We haven’t lived in an open air prison our entire lives watching a foreign power wantonly murder, torture, and rape our friends.

And it certainly has done wonders for attention to Israel’s crimes.

It’s almost like we need some kind of negotiated peace wherein Israel actually backs all the way off for the first time since 1967.

(Checks Hamas’ charter) Oh look that’s what Hamas’ stated goal is.

The suggestion is that they won’t stop until Israel does. Roll over and let the genocide happen isn’t a realistic peace plan.

And? Israel has been killing, starving, and holding Palestinians without charge for decades. Oh and we’ve found out there’s rape in there too. Because of course there is.

If you want to trot out crimes we’re going to be here all night. Only one side has the power to step back and stop the cycle of violence. But it’s working for Israel, they’re slowly assimilating Palestine.

It took us a 100 years to officially recognize the Armenian Genocide.

Because Israel showed them they didn’t get anything for moderation. Just more suffering.

Uh yeah, considering Nasrullah is fucking dead. And you’re reaching 37 years back for statements that have long since been updated.

Hamas moderated in the 2000’s and changed their charter in 2018.

But you just keep on trucking with the bad faith statements. Your own link points this out if you read more than 5 sentences.

There you go again. Assuming facts not in evidence.

All of them. If you want to compare killing civilians there’s a graphic around here showing that Israel has killed far more, every year. Of course I wish they’d target active military and civilians involved specifically in Israel’s MIC. But if Israel’s strikes on hospitals are justified then so are the ones you’re worried about. You can’t have it both ways.

If Israel de-occupies Palestinian and Lebanese land, stops blockading Gaza, stops blowing up chunks of it’s neighbors, then it removes any moral grounds for them to continue fighting Israel. Instead we’re to believe Israel is the defender when they’ve occupied their neighbors for 50+ years.

You mean you assumed facts not in evidence.

Iran was playing by Western rules, drop rockets on areas not likely to have casualties or be strategic. It’s supposed to be a de-escalation. They didn’t account for Israel clearly wanting to escalate this war into another regional conflict of them against the entire middle east.
