The sad truth is that while Kamala would have been better in many other ways, in terms of Israel and Gaza, Trump, Biden, and Kamala are clones of each other. Gaza's fate was written on October 7th. The Israeli right has long held plans to ethnically cleanse both Gaza and the West Bank. This has been their goal for decades. Part of their long term strategy is to so antagonize the Palestinian population that violent uprisings are inevitable, thus providing justification for genocide and ethnic cleansing. Israel may not have directly known the specifics of the October 7th attack in advance. But Israel has a long standing policy to antagonize Palestinians to generate the cassus belli it needs to launch its ethnic cleansing campaigns.
And frankly, I do not blame any Muslim for staying home in the election, regardless of what other benefits Kamala had over Trump. You cannot tell someone, "yes, I am going to murder your people. But I still need you to vote for me in order to protect democracy."
