The fact that the question of which is the lesser of two evils is being so hotly debated right now (regardless of what the true answer is) indicates just how badly the sitting president governs. What a sad state of affairs.

You could not be more wrong. While option for Israel has carried on since Truman — excepting LBJ, Trump, & Biden — POTUS have wavered in support. JFK tried hardest to hold a middle ground. Reagan confronted Begin over an image of an infant with its arms blown off, and forced an end to Israeli bombing. 15,000 kids dead since Oct; Joe did nothing.

Biden’s MOU arms deals don’t require congressional approval. POTUS has privilege to end MOU anytime.

When you think about the attention infants get: the late night feedings, the many diaper changes, the sleepless worry during waves of sickness, the rapt anticipation of growth, the celebration at the first rollover, the bundling up against cold and rain, the sheer joy of the smiles and cooing, the singing of favorite songs to soothe crying.

When you think about how babies take the focal point in families, only then can you see with anger as an ally the immeasurable loss in the tents of

“Utter horror in #Rafah tonight. The #IDF has struck tents housing displaced people in an area that #Israel had designated a humanitarian zone & encouraged #Gaza’ns to evacuate to. At least 30 people are dead.

If you honestly believe that fascism hangs in the balance in the November presidential election, then you should be volunteering to canvas door-to-door, to phone bank, to stuff envelopes; anything to GOTV for Biden. Venting your spleen on social media at those who won’t vote for Biden seems like smug self-indulgence if you aren’t walking the walk.

This seems big and newsworthy.

While U.S. President Joe called the legal step against Israeli officials ‘outrageous’, the French foreign ministry took a different stance.”
