This is a frankly dangerous and historically flat understanding of . Joe only permits judgments of genocide in hindsight. Yet, we know that 35,000 dead in Palestine is a conservative estimate. We haven’t accounted for the missing and disappeared. We know of badges of genocide: destruction of hospitals, libraries, mosques, and schools. Raphael Lemkin coined “genocide” thinking of 800,000 displaced Armenians in 1916; the 1948 Nakba displaced 750,000 Palestinians.

Just a reminder: destroying mosques is legally a badge of genocide. It is “culturicide,” and central to genocide according to Raphael Lemkin, the lawyer who coined the term “genocide” as employed in international law.

Only years later did I realize that I was mistaken, and we missed an opportunity to have a president who might actually have made America great by championing racial justice, labor rights, and the war against poverty."

If only you’d applied the same parsing logic you employ on to the article’s comparison of 2024 to 1968. Unlike LBJ, has not dropped out of the race. LBJ’s high disapprovals were due to Vietnam; Biden’s disapprovals were high well before Oct7. Biden has no historic civil rights and voting rights legislation victories to shore up his progressive wing (in fact he fumbled his promise to codify Roe). Harris is not Humphrey. Nixon created the EPA, etc, etc

Test for the US:

“The General Assembly will vote tomorrow on a resolution that may effectively make a member state of the UN. As you may recall, vetoed a resolution at the UNSC earlier this year that sought to admit Palestine as a member.

Based on a draft of the resolution I have reviewed, I do believe that this resolution may become a big deal ….

If Biden chooses to defund the UN as a result, it will only further undermine the 's standing.”

University of made the same raggedy argument about their lack of transparency. Poor excuses on either side of the border.

“U of T claims it can’t reveal its investments because it would compromise their sweet deal. Apparently the school is more than willing to be complicit in as long as it retains access to ‘best-in-class third-party investment managers.’

“This is how Smith treats its student activists!

Smith College closed College Hall early today because we are occupying it until they divest from death. After they locked the building and all access to outside help, a student opened the window to pick up food and pillows. She was assaulted by a smith staff and almost pushed out of the window.

Your tactics don't scare us, they only make us stronger! We will not leave until you divest!!”
