It's completely in her power to stop whitewashing a genocide and creating false equivalences by calling it a "war".

Not if she wants to get elected. I've said since the convention that they're trying their best to not piss off either side and that's mostly been their strategy. Even when she's releasing statements on the death of Hamas and Hezbollah leaders she's very careful to say, as an American leader, I'm glad this dude, who killed Americans, is dead.

Of course that was evidence of her being a flaming Zionist to people who want Trump elected.

Not until after the election. She's walking a wire trying to get nonMAGA republicans to vote for her in order to save Democracy. They need to at least pretend to believe she won't completely abandon Israel. If she can beat Trump, she'll then be free to call a genocide a genocide. In any case, Trump wants to end the war by letting his buddy Bibi nuke Gaza and just fucking kill all the Palestinians. A "final solution" as it were.
