    You say they’ll be forced into a cease fire. Do you think that’s something they can just flip a switch and make it so? That’s an ongoing war on the other side of the planet involving at least three groups of people. In the meantime, you withhold your vote and Trump becomes president again. Now what?

    We gotta get Harris there before we start asking her for favors.

      Yes quite literally in one phone call. Do you not think israel is fully dependent on the US?

      We gotta get Harris there before we start asking her for favors.

      Why do you think the Palestinians should suffer from three more months of Genocide? The Democrats are in power right now.

      Harris has already stated she will keep shipping weapons to israel this week.

        Ok, so let’s assume there is no change in the US stance on Gaza. You and anyone you’ve convinced, don’t vote. Trump supporters are unaffected. Trump is now president. Then what? Have you made the world a better place?

          Standing up to Genocide is a game of chicken. It means potentially losing if the total amount of chickens is too big.

          If enough voters grow a spine however the Democrats have no option but conceding or face certain loss.
