Hope all the protest voters/non-voters are happy.
You should ingest feces and perish
Blaming people for not wanting to vote for 99% Hitler instead of 100% Hitler is not the win that you think it is
Biden sanctioned only 4 settlers in February. He may have expanded it to a few dozen, but this was a useless move when there’s literally over 600,000 settlers breaking international law. Heck, there’s more than 4 murders of Palestinians by settlers per month. Biden did the equivalent of leaving a penny as a tip, and it’s just as insulting.
Biden resorting to not-even-half-measures? Color me gobsmacked.
We all knew who he was going to back.
Who’s is “we all”?
There were a large cohort of Americans who were protesting the Biden Harris administration and promoting the anti-vote for Harris. Some blame this group for Harris’ loss. In my personal experience, it seemed like the vast majority of people were not aware of Trump’s history or intentions regarding Israel. When I tried to inform people, I was banned from a community on Lemmy for being antisemitic and a genocide lover.
Those people were willfully ignorant.
Everyone with a fucking brain knew that while Harris was a shitty choice on the issue of the genocide in Palestine Trump was much much shittier.
All those fucks talking about how there wasn’t a real choice were, at best, useful idiots.
That large cohort couldn’t find their own asses with a map and a flashlight.
It was entirely a manipulation tactic originating from the Trump campaign.
Non-stupid people knew who he was going to support. Not even smart people, just not-stupid people.
Wow, what a surprise!
If only Harris had won, then we could at least have had some hand-wringing!
Huurrr duuurr Harris so bad
If you think this tid hitnis bad, this is day 1 of a 4 year tenure. Palestinians are going to be fucked beyond and it all could have been avoided
99% of the people whining about Genocide Joe never gave a shit about the Palestinians. They were just using concern trolling as an excuse not to make unpalatable decisions.
99% of the people removed about those people also don’t care about Palestinians though let’s be honest.
Yeah, the democrats would at least of said it was a shame while they killed them! Trump mudering them is just meaner!
Trump is removing sanctions on west bank settlers - this wasn’t even in the realm of possibility for Harris’ camp.
This isn’t “just meaner” this is accelerating genocide.
No point arguing with someone who is only capable of simplistic, binary thinking.
Telling Israeli villagers on occupied land in Palestine that they aren’t allowed to directly do business with American corporations isn’t a punishment. Sanctions on settlers have no practical effect whatsoever, and if you believe they do, then they were effective at the only thing they were imposed for, and that’s public relations. It allowed democrats to pretend they were doing something useful.
In other words, you’re gullible.
A lot of settlers have ties to the US. Some of the most virulently ultranationalist of those assholes are from Long Island and New Jersey. Sanctions, and especially a travel ban, would make a huge difference.
