Who do you believe is buying a fear mongering hypothetical over the actual reality of genocide happening thanks to Biden and Harris?

Under federal laws, the US Department of State has a policy prohibiting weapons transfers when it’s likely they will be used to commit genocide, crimes against humanity, grave breaches of the Geneva Conventions, or other violations of international humanitarian or human rights laws.

In February 2024, Veterans for Peace sent an open letter to the State Department and Secretary of State Antony Blinken, invoking these laws and policies, urging the termination of provision of military weapons and munitions to Israel.

The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum:

The acts that constitute genocide fall into five categories:

• Killing members of the group

• Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group

• Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction, in whole or in part

• Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group

• Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group

A short list of official allegations of Israel’s genocide against Palestinians (Google):

South Africa's genocide case against Israel

The International Court of Justice (ICJ) has ordered Israel to prevent the destruction of evidence and ensure the preservation of evidence related to allegations of genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.

Israel's use of the "Hannibal Directive"

Israel has been accused of using its "Hannibal Directive" policy, which allows for the killing of Israeli soldiers and civilians to prevent them from being taken alive as prisoners of war. This policy has been criticized as a form of genocide.

UN reports

UN experts have reported "grave violations" committed by Israeli forces against Palestinians in Gaza, including "genocidal incitement" and the use of "powerful weaponry with inherently indiscriminate impacts." They have also cited evidence of Israel's intent to "destroy the Palestinian people under occupation."

Special Rapporteur's findings

The UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Occupied Palestinian Territories, Francesca Albanese, has found "reasonable grounds" to believe that Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. She cited evidence of Israel's intent to destroy the Palestinian group, including causing serious bodily or mental harm, imposing conditions of life calculated to bring about physical destruction, and preventing births within the group.

Amnesty International's research

Amnesty International has gathered evidence of unlawful Israeli attacks in Gaza, resulting in mass civilian casualties. The organization has criticized Israel's failure to distinguish between military objectives and civilian objects, leading to indiscriminate attacks that are war crimes.

Other reports and allegations

Various independent reports and allegations have been made about Israel's treatment of Palestinians, including forced transfers, torture, and the destruction of infrastructure. Some have characterized Israel's actions as genocide, while others have criticized the use of the term without sufficient evidence.

Is this a reflection of the kind of insults you heard as a child learning to interact with others?

Go back to your country

A white supremacist slogan from a supposed anti-fascist?

Media coverage and social discourse, or a lack thereof, regarding settler violence is stark in America.

It can only be called terrorism if the perpetrators are non-white right?

The time to suddenly pull a principled stance about Trolleys out of your ass is not ten seconds before your inaction kills people.

So why do establishment liberals ignore the demands of progressives until it's time to suddenly demand their votes?

Beautiful write-up, thank you!

Exactly! Only single issue "Orange man bad" voters are morally good!

Trump's hypothetical genocide is way worse than Harris' real life genocide!

Moral superiority belongs to supporters of Genocide Harris who promised to build the Mexican border wall!

Does your logic apply to single issue (anti Trump) voters?

dumb as fuck

What cherry was allegedly picked in the comment you replied to?

AOC is somehow not an establishment democrat??

“She is working tirelessly to secure a cease-fire in Gaza and bringing the hostages home,” the Squad member said Monday night in championing Kamala Harris for president.

It's 2024 and folks with no clue continue to make false claims online. Billions of humans have lived and died, never eating meat in their lifetime. Do you think mass produced meat has always existed?

Why spout obvious lies when Google exists? There are many examples of Harris fighting to keep now-overturned convincts imprisoned as well, need I go on?

“Defiance of the federal court order requiring the reduction of the California prisoner population is reminiscent of the Southern governors of the 1950s declaring their defiance of federal court desegregation orders,” Erwin Chemerinsky, dean of UC Berkeley Law School, told NPR at the time. “Both were misguided efforts to undermine enforcement of the Constitution.” Added Barry Krisberg, longtime president of the National Council on Crime and Delinquency, “The legal arguments that the state is putting forward make no sense.”

The irony of a lazy plagiarizing troll like yourself...

Donald Trump somehow controls Biden-Harris's foreign policy??

"There has been no division of labor or dispute on policy. Vice President Harris shares President Biden’s support for an ironclad US commitment to Israel’s security coupled with a commitment to advancing a two-state solution in order to bring an end to this cycle of violence.” - A US official (Source: “Not the bad cop: Biden officials say Harris won’t shift course on supporting Israel”)

“Biden restricted and conditioned U.S. arms transfers to Ukraine but worried that doing the same to Israel might tempt Hezbollah to attack it. So Biden kept the arms flowing (with the exception of at least one shipment of 2,000-pound bombs) and never imposed serious restrictions on their use.”

“"The United States supports Israel with weapons, funds aid packages, and has vetoed or abstained from the United Nations’ cease-fire resolutions."

Conservatives don't hide their racism, but there are exactly zero liberal cities that have achieved equality or any level of dignity for black Americans.

The election hasn't happened yet and blacks are already being blamed for supporting Trump, despite their level of support being the lowest of any demographic.

Despite the blame game regarding blacks, more white women voted for Trump than men in 2016 and even more white women voted for Trump in 2020.

Conservatives and racism, name a hotter duo

A much hotter duo is simply white Americans and racism.

The delusions in this space are astounding. Trump is actually responsible for the ongoing genocide??

a person responsible for genocide, who spent their career imprisoning mostly black men, and who promises to spend hundreds of millions funding a border wall

their ideological opposite

You think the ideological opposite of anti-genocide progressives isn't a person responsible for genocide, who spent their career imprisoning mostly black men, and who promises to spend hundreds of millions funding a border wall?

instead of honest

Projection much?

The "Group 13" from the Warsaw ghetto, led by Abraham Gancwajch, was the only organized group of Jewish collaboraters with the Germans on the basis of ideology.

Important to note that fascism and genocide broadly persist under the current Harris co-led administration. Persecution and the marginalization of black Americans persists in the most democrat-controlled cities of America, not just in the Uyghur Autonomous Region.

Amusing that Americans fear countries that, even combined, are responsible for a fraction of the worldwide political coups and corruption America itself is responsible for.

America has singlehandedly propped up the Israel military, why pretend it is divorced from moral responsibility in the aftermath of a genocide?

doesn’t mean that Israel shouldn’t be held accountable

Why pretend Americans have any moral high ground in geopolitics, especially regarding Israel?
