    Harris also loves Israel and hates Iran and seemed pretty warhawkish during her campaign

      Far better to elect the person threatening to drop nuclear weapons on Iran?

        Has kamala condemned this action by Trump? The Dems are not anti-war. They are warmongers just like the GOP.

          The Dems would never have done this. But they’d still be supporting the genocide in Gaza. They are slightly less warmongering than Trumps. Meh. Fuck the whole system.

          Harris and Biden both supported Israel and their right to retaliate, regardless of the extent of that retaliation. However they never advocated direct involvement and they certainly never threatened using nuclear weapons. Both sides are not the same

            I mean trump never advocated direct involvement during the campaign either but we’re speculating because Harris isn’t in office. I’m basing my speculation on the fact that the Biden admin kowtowed to Bibi constantly and Harris made it clear she’d be the same in that regard. If either of them were in this same situation where Israel is in active war with Iran and Bibi begged them to strike Iran i think they definitely would.

      I don’t think there are many people in US that love current Iran regime, bit there is a difference between not liking it and starting a war.

      Also I am so fucking tired of that argument “yeah, what he does is not good but Harris would be worse”

      We don’t know, since taco is in charge, but we know that Netanyahu was livid when she commented how Israel is handling Palestine. Netanyahu also met with trump in July last year, now we know he likely wanted to have guarantees that trump will back Israel is it comes down to this.

      And lastly, trump already tried to start war with Iran in 2019, but failed. He later also said he did it because Netanyahu told him to, which shows how weak he is.

        I’m NOT saying kamala would be worse than trump. I’m saying they’re both terrible on this issue. Also Kamala is alive and well and has access to Internet. If she wouldn’t do this she could say so.
