“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.
Just curious why your entire account is countless articles criticizing democrats for their Palestine stance while applying absolutely no scrutiny to republicans, despite republicans being infinitely more hardline pro-Israel?
Because the Democrats are in power right now and are the ones responsible for the Genocide still going on. Not the Republicans.
Republicans occasionally get some posts as well. Interestingly when I post about them nobody shows up. And then they keep claiming what you're saying right now.
Democrats control 1/3 branches of government right now and I can’t find a single article posted by you which calls out the GOP. I think you’re a troll.
Go read up on Leahy Law before commenting like you understand politics.
This is you:
Democrats control the Whitehouse and the Senate, so, like 1.5 branches of government, and you're telling someone else this? Ballsy. Not to bright, but ballsy.
