“What was very shocking was that while we were all in the room discussing and listening to people impacted by what’s happening in Gaza, we’re not certain that that message will get across to the people at the top of the party,” Khader added. “You look at the themes of the party’s convention – today, tomorrow, Wednesday, and Thursday – there’s nowhere where Palestinians are included in that narrative.”
While the platform condemned former President Donald Trump for refusing to “endorse the political aspirations of the Palestinian people,” it made no divergence from the status quo policy of vetoing UN Security Council resolutions this year that moved towards Palestinian statehood.
While the platform boasts of being opposed to settler violence, it makes no acknowledgment of the International Court of Justice finding the Israeli government’s occupation and illegal expansions of settlements constitute apartheid.
And to that end, while the platform condemns UN efforts that apparently “single out” Israel, and the Boycott, Divest, and Sanctions movement for the same – apparently ignoring the historical precedent of Americans also boycotting and pushing divestment against fossil fuel companies and apartheid South Africa.
Gutless shill. “The party’s nominee to the office of president (the de facto leader of the party) has zero say in their current policies”
The excuses are becoming as offensive as the genocide itself.
Correct. As Vice President, her job is to step in if Biden can’t continue and break ties in the Senate, that’s it.
She has made statements on self determination and a two state solution, but she will not run counter to the current administration.

Reading your feckless dodge to my point and playing the theme of The West Wing in crescendo
“the party” lol
What dialectical materialism does to a mfer
not sure what you’re on about but it’s sure to be stupid as shit
You’re worried about the genocide? So I’m sure you’ll have strong feelings about this?
Only an ever growing disgust at liberals looking for literally any excuse to blame people not in power for the actions of their preferred leaders, who are in power.
I don’t honestly believe nor give a shit about this because
Bibi is never going to willingly agree to an actual end to the genocide in the first place so anyone making this a center of attention is just fucking dumb. Like real fucking dumb. A credulous rube with zero critical thinking skills or long term memory.
BLOCKING A CEASEFIRE.
See? I can do lists too.
No really you have the brain of a fish. You see a shiny object and you bite on it without question. Only an idiot of the highest order could be tricked into thinking there was anything even rhetorically framed as a cease fire on the table. Having any awareness at all of Biden’s ideology and Bibi’s political situation make the idea a joke.
Your disgusting cynicism in full bloom. You literally don’t give a shit except now you have an angle to make it about your election.
Ah, so Bibi had no intention of a crease fire, so Donny boy interfering is perfectly acceptable. You really do care about Palestine. It’s so obvious.
