    Who did trump help genocide? Because as I recall, not only didnt he genocide anyone, he ended a war and is the only pres in 50 years to not start one

      He’s very pro Israel, and if he was given the current situation in Israel as president he’d probably be waving a pair of pompoms in the Knesset.

        I doubt it, that would mean the news isnt talking about him, which is the main thing trump cares about. And he cant make any money off a genocide either. Trump would despise israel.

          How does his decision to move the embassy make sense in that context?

          Here’s a quote from that article, to illustrate how people saw the Trump government on Israel at that moment:

          Every previous US administration has been pro-Israel but made some effort to understand and respond to the Palestinian narrative, says Mr Miller.

          This one is so “deeply ensconced” in the Israeli narrative it has crossed a red line, he says.

          If so, it will be difficult for it to keep propping up the framework, with unpredictable results.

          It is true that key Arab countries seem more willing to sanction a settlement less favourable to the Palestinians than before because they want Israel as an ally against Iran.

          But Mr Trump’s decision on Jerusalem, and Israel’s heavy-handed approach in Gaza, reduces their room for manoeuvre.

      We’re just ignoring his calls for Israel to “finish them off,” and when he said he would give them all the weapons he had?

      His Covid response sure was pushing the genocide envelope. Think he’ll handle a hot war better than THAT?!? Share some of what you’re smoking, i want off this ride.
