If Biden would actually apply pressure and use his available leverage, and Israel still wouldn't stop the genocide, I would be totally fine making good on the threat to cut them off from US aid and sanction them. You made mention of some defense contractors and the like that would miss out on some business if we did that. I'm fine with that. I will suffer those consequences. I don't know why I have to suffer for my anti-genocide position to be valid in your mind. Can I not just be ideologically opposed to my tax dollars and the elected officials that I voted for contributing to horrific human rights violations? What about this requires me to suffer or sacrifice?

Is it because I'm not scared enough of another 4 years of Trump for your liking? Is that literally your only consideration? It is, isn't it? How sad...

Be ideologically opposed but keep that arrogant  “I’ll suffer the consequences “.  You won’t.  You will not suffer one iota of the consequences.    That’s my point.  Just keep that kind of bs saying out of this.

And your last paragraph just reinforces the well fed well educated male millennial mentality.   You don’t fear Trump because if he’s elected your life doesn’t change. You need not worry about losing medical choices if you’re a woman, you don’t have to worry if you are trans or gay.  You are t in our country seeking asylum from insanity of others

Electing Trump doesn’t affect you whatsoever.  So your last paragraph isn’t the flex you think it is.  


Look none of us want what’s happening in Gaza but let’s pull back on the rhetoric of saying we’re willing to suffer consequences.   Unless you can name them, I’m not interested.

You accuse me of emotional posting. When have I ever apologized for the killing of innocents?  

Your hyperbolic drivel becomes tiring.

Other than it’s “politics” and democrats do silly things when that word is introduced like try to ban one of the favorite things of a key voting block in an election year instead of simply not doing that

It's a fair position to oppose the Israeli war on Hamas, but calling it "ethnic cleansing" isn't helping your argument.

While a vocal minority believe that a fertilized egg is a human being with the full rights of an adult human most do not.

An equally vocal minority believe that it is okay to abort a healthy viable baby one day before its due date, most do not.

My "argument" being that Israel should stop killing civilians. Not an argument that should need help or be seen as even remotely controversial, but many have lost the plot.

That depends if the mother's live is at elevated risk and the only solution is the abortion

In a late stage pregnancy, that is never the case.   But then you have never been that strong in science.

It's a war in a densely populated urban area.   How would that be even possible?

TRENTON, N.J. (AP) — U.S. Sen. Bob Menendez of New Jersey said Thursday he won’t run in the Democratic primary as he faces federal corruption charges, but he left open the possibility that he would reenter the race as an independent later this year if he is exonerated at a trial.

Menendez’s announcement comes four days before a state deadline to file to run in the June 4 Democratic primary that’s already being contested by Rep. Andy Kim and New Jersey first lady Tammy Murphy. The almost 10-minute video shows Menendez speaking about his decades in Congress, pushing for aid for his state, including for Superstorm Sandy recovery and COVID-19 relief.

“The present accusations I am facing of which I am innocent and will prove so will not allow me to have that type of dialogue and debate with political opponents,” he said in a video posted on social media. “You deserve to hear from those who wish to represent you about what they would do for you and your families in the future. Therefore I will not file for the Democratic party this June.”
