    I think left to your satisfaction would be little further than most everyone else wants him, tbf. lol You can’t acknowledge any of the progress he’s made though? Even like, a tiny bit?

    Regarding Gaza, btw, they don’t need our glide bombs to commit a genocide. There’s a whole lot of ways to do an ethnic cleansing, so, you can’t necessarily stop it just by stopping the weapons. It’s not that simple.

    We’d have to sanction them or something, that’d probably do it.

      No. Prior to Gaza, though Im very critical of him, I did acknowledge a few things. Once he prioritized additional money/weapons and refused a ceasefire while bypassing Congress to allocate more weapons, despite what Israel was doing, and pledging unwavering support. Any progress prior to that is irrelevant. Shipping containers had a higher priority than the lives of Palestinians,

      they don’t need our glide bombs to commit a genocide

      While true, without access to US weapons, including white phosphorous which is restricted under international humanitarian law, it would be much harder to accomplish.

        I disagree, I think it would be easier. I think they’d probably starve them all. Nothing short of UN sanctions could stop them.

        People call it a siege, but its not a real one. It could be. Humans require 2000 calories a day, roughly.

        And WP is frequently used in smoke applications, where it is permitted. It’s not completely banned. While I won’t say they aren’t misusing it to cause fear and suffering, it is a common tool employed by armies for use outside of deadly munitions.

        At any rate, thanks for answering. I understand better.
