If you had a working memory, you'd recall that trump has been calling Bibi and torpedoing ceasefire and foreign aid talks.
Also, there are a lot fewer Palestinians in Gaza left to shoot, so it would make sense that the numbers went down.
Oh, and the current ceasefire was negotiated by the Biden administration.
But you'd remember all that if you cared "more than performatively."
Source? I feel like you just make this up. It was enacted literally the day before the inauguration wasn't it? Why enact a ceasefire the day before the inauguration of your political opponent after 2+ years funding the genocide and talking about Pissrael's right to defend itself and arresting students at campuses for protesting a genocide?
God you guys are fucking vile, trivialising stuff like that and pulling out bullshit arguments. The ceasefire is ongoing, that's the reason why orders of magnitude people are being murdered, not a lack of Palestinians to be genocided. Nazis ramped up their industrial elimination of "Untermenschen" when they saw they were losing, despite "fewer left to shoot".
Pop quiz... Who was the president the day before Trump was inaugurated in 2025?
Maybe because the preservation of human rights and life should be pursued regardless of who the President will be tomorrow?
This gave me a good laugh. You believed the propaganda.
I'm curious how this works. If anyone makes a deal anywhere in the world, whoever the US president at that time should receive credit or blame for the negotiations. is that how this works?
Most importantly does this mean I can i blame Trump for the Luka Donic trade to the Lakers?
Right... Propaganda....
So your position is that Israel just stopped it's genocide on its own, without any outside pressure or negotiation talks?
What I'm hearing then is that the whomever is president in the US and their support (or lack there of) of Israel has no effect on the situation over there... Which means the people who abstained from voting or protest voted against Kamala are rubes who allowed a felon fascist racist to take control of the US?
My position is that Israel hasnt stopped their genocide.
A one month temporary pause in a 50+ year attempt to eradicate a people is a very early celebration party. Apparently, it isnt enough to stop US political parties and their loyalist from trying to score points off of it though.
Or maybe you think only israels most recent action was genocidal. In which case sure. All hail [insert your favorite political leaders] glorious wisdom!
I think you may spend too much time deep in culture wars.
Same. No argument there.
Also, same.
Israel has been trying to forcefully move and encroach on Gaza for decades, but I would say that their actions in the last two years have definitely stepped up to genocide levels. No need to hail a particular political leader, they were going to do this regardless of who was elected.
Probably right about the time spent, but calling donald trump, a reknowned and convicted felon, fascist and rapist, a felon fascist and rapist, is not hyperbole.
So how is that compatible with the 2+ years of funding and supporting genocide?
