The white house won’t even admit it’s a genocide. There is no red line and never will be.
Well, no western country has either.
Here is the list in case anyone is interested:
- Bolivia
- Brazil
- Colombia
- Egypt
- Jordan
- Malaysia
- Namibia
- Pakistan
- South Africa
- Turkey
I think you might be missing a few. Eg Nicaragua, Maldives.
In terms of the West, Ireland, Spain, and Norway are probably close to openly calling it a genocide.

It’s getting so bad that even white heads of state are considering calling it the genocide it is.
Yes, sooner or later it will be recognised by most.
I’m old enough to remember the years after the Cambodian Genocide when the US supported the genocidal Khmer Rouge being the representatives for Cambodia at the UN, locking out the actual government of Cambodia.
These travesties happen every so often.
Well, no western country has either.
So? Does that make continuing to enable genocide right? Is that some sort of fucking justification? If not, why bring it up? “Everyone else is doing it” is another shitty excuse, and the fourth I’ve seen here on lemmy. The other three, summarized:
“That’s the way we’ve always done it;” “We might be called antisemitic by the party that chants ‘Jews will not replace us’;” and “Trump loves it so that makes it ok.”
This is what I mean about support for genocide on lemmy. Making shit excuses for it instead of condemning it.
No. Just stop. You see something you don’t like and you make up a bunch of other subtext.
What we need LESS of is people acting like the US is the only country with power.
My comment is a lot more educational than you want to admit. A lot of people probably needed to know that the list of countries is small. Not because “genocide good,” but because those people probably thought the list was a lot longer—and they should be concerned about it.
I guarantee you couldn’t rattle off that list. All you know is USA USA USA USA.
That’s the problem with social media. You’re not here to fight genocide, you’re here to abuse people, and chase them into the far right wing with your false accusations.
and chase them into the far right wing with your false accusations.
If you’re going to be a trump supporter because I dared to suggest that you quit making shit excuses for genocide, you were already a trump supporter.
I disagree.
I know. That’s why you keep trying to justify support for genocide with excuses.
That’s not what’s going on, and you know it. You’re just trying to make me feel bad by gaslighting me. It won’t work, because I know what you’re doing.
I’m mentally filing this under Not The Onion.
“Netanyahu spits in Biden’s face and rubs feces in his hair. White house is assessing if this crosses the line.”
Biden’s going to call Netanyahu and tell him that he is disappointed in him.
He would get hung up on.
White house to check if biden even has any balls.
Not enough dead babies. Aw shucks.
Israel did violate.
Biden is the guy democracy’s fate rests on then we are screwed. Netanyahu continues to dog walk him and Biden can only smile and do nothing.
Doing nothing would be an improvement over selling weapons, going to bat for Netanyahu at the UN, and genocide denial.
EDIT: removed ambiguity.
Do you mean “anything”?
I meant “doing nothing.”
Ahhh okay that makes sense
Yeah, it was worded ambiguously. I’m gonna fix it.
I’m done assessing whether I’m voting for Biden in November, that’s for sure. Bring on the orange man, so be it.
If you’re mad at Biden, why would you vote for someone that promises to be worse?
There’s no sense to it. The only message you will be sending is that you approve of even greater atrocities.
Also, in case you’re completely blind, Netanyahu wants Trump back in office. He’s going to do everything he can to stay in power and convincing rubes to vote for Trump because “genocidin Biden” is part of his strategy.
How would Trump be worse for the Palestinians?
Would Bibi bomb even harder? Because he seems to be ignoring international pressure now. Would Trump give even more bombs to Bibi? Because there doesn’t seem to be a handle on the throttle now.
Trump moved the embassy. Did biden move it back?
Trumps despicable. There’s lots of reasons to prefer biden come November, but how is biden better on this issue?
Yes, Middle East policy will definitely be better under Trump.
Edit: /s!!
