Bernie Sanders May 08, 2025
[based on speech given to US Senate]
"Thursday marks 68 days and counting since ANY humanitarian aid was allowed into Gaza. For more than nine weeks, Israel has blocked all supplies: no food, no water, no medicine, and no fuel.
Hundreds of truckloads of lifesaving supplies are waiting to enter Gaza, sitting just across the border, but are denied entry by Israeli authorities.
… Defense Minister Israel Katz said, “Israel’s policy is clear: No humanitarian aid will enter Gaza, and blocking this aid is one of the main pressure levers.” "

AIPAC
Or, put another way: money
Because they’re complicit
You think they’re gonna admit complicity in genocide?
If it’s the winning issue so many centrists act like it is, they should be way louder about it.
Why aren’t they proud of their accomplishment?
Because they’re the men who made it?
The ADL that’s why. Fuck those guys.
And AIPAC, and other de facto foreign government pressure groups that wouldn’t be allowed to have a tenth as much influence on American politics if they were representing any other country.
Literally every country on earth is doing nothing. Where is your precious China, ML? Why don’t you harp about that? Oh right, it’s because you don’t actually care about Gaza or genocide.
I didn’t realise China was providing arms to Israel. Because if they were, like they are providing arms to Russia, then they would be being at harped on, as they are. But there is one cuntry in particular that is enabling genocidal Israeli monsters. The US of fuckwitt A. Fuck Trump, Genocide Joe and every American who has allowed and continues to allow this heinous crime against humanity. You are the worst version of yourselves yet.
I don’t see Australia providing aid. Or even offering. Everyone wants to point a finger but the entire human race seems to not give a shit. Yeah, the largest arms manufacturer in the world provides arms to a lot of places, and that should stop being an export. The whole world should stop making guns.
And yeah we are a shitty version, and we are going to learn the hard way real soon.
Oh look, more whataboutism for netanyahu.
lol fuck that guy
But china tho.
But Australia tho.
But the entire EU tho.
But Canada tho.
But Brazil tho.
No one does anything. The US is crippled on the international front, this is literally the best time to stand up. Any country could go in and provide aid to Gaza. Any of them could stand up to Israel.
But none of them are, and no one cares. Especially here on lemmy where the only genocide that we talk about is the kind we can blame the US for.

The thread is about how the US congress is silent about its complicity in the Gaza genocide. If you want to talk about how much you hate .ml and china (but actually just ml) that’s fine, but don’t pretend it’s out of like to talk about the US’ involvement in genocide in a thread about the US’ involvement in genocide.
Right the entire topic is asking why a group of people aren’t talking about something. I’d like to expand that circle a little wider and ask, why the fuck as no one talking about it?
But I guess complaining about humanity is too broad for these people. They need something specific to hate. So let’s blame
Israelthe US.I have no problem with China—just hypocritical ML, who don’t actually care about human lives in Gaza, just crushing the west.
I have no problem with China—just hypocritical ML
You mean you support China’s genocide of Uyghurs? You’re consistent, I guess.
