Jeremy Scahill is a good journalist. 2 weeks ago he published interviews with leaders of Hamas, which was quite interesting.

    No, but if she wins she can prevent more blood from ending up on her hands by immediately withdrawing all aid to Israel, legalizing marijuana, and expunging the records of all nonviolent drug offenders. There’s no undoing the mistakes of the past but you can take action to prevent the same mistakes from continuing to happen.

    that depends if she has instincts to go for it against bibi (who is also racist), crush him like a bug and break from aipac explicitly. Seems unlikely shrug-outta-hecks, obama was more aware and still behaved like a wet blanket

    Agreed- seems very unlikely. I almost think the president would be overruled if they chose to break with Israel.

    I think they are just cowards tbh, israel function surrounded by puppets regimes is rather useless. Egypt is not under nasser, yemen is not socialist, saudis wouldn't dare to stop treat flows, jordan has been under heel forever

    Out, damned spot; out, I say. One, two,—why, then ’tis time to do’t. Hell is murky. Fie, my lord, fie, a soldier and afeard? What need we fear who knows it when none can call our power to account? Yet who would have thought Palestinian children to have had so much blood in them?
