What is prompting you to ask me these questions? Because it seems like you’re just trying to derail.

I'm trying to understand why you replied with what you replied.

​

I could start asking you completely unrelated questions as well, but it would just be wasting time.

Ask away.

​

Incidentally, my answers are no and yes, respectively.

Thank you for answering the questions.

Presumably they wouldn't curtail it for Trump, but they might for Biden.

I'll put it in question form.

Do you believe that there are no non-leftists who oppose the genocide of Palestinians?

Do you believe that there are liberals who oppose the genocide of Palestinians?

Netanyahu is no better than Hitler,

Hitler was no worse than Netanyahu.

Both committed mass murder and genocide and are therefore equally evil.

and do you think that Trump is no worse than Biden when it comes to supporting genocide?

I'll take that as a "Yes, no non-leftists oppose the genocide of Palestinians."

So according to you, there are no non-leftists who oppose the genocide of Palestinians.

Then by your definition, I'm an apologist for genocide.

I suppose "ethnic cleansing" is a euphemism for genocide.

You think republicans are gonna prosecute biden while trump is doing the same thing?

Congressional ones who have little hope in becoming President might. Also many are hypocrites.

​

they just got scotus to rule that the president is above the law.

Didn't SCOTUS did that by themselves—I suppose to reward Trump for choosing them.

Many Americans would rather vote for a leader who supports Israeli genocide of Palestinians a little less than the Republican candidate who supports Israeli genocide of Palestinians a little more. It's why if I was American, I'd support neither Democrats nor Republicans.

Yes, I suppose.

I'm not sure about Republicans.

I suppose; but many Americans preferred him to Trump.

Presumably an American court.

I suppose some of it, yes; but still, maybe tankies shouldn't generalize too much.

Then I suppose he can be prosecuted.

but I really don’t have enough historical knowledge on the subject.

Me neither. 😁

But yeah, that's kind of my take on it too. Thanks for your reply. 🙂

Yep.

his Wikiquote page:

wq:Theodor Herzl

Were I to sum up the Basel Congress in a word — which I shall guard against pronouncing publicly — it would be this: At Basel, I founded the Jewish State. If I said this out loud today, I would be answered by universal laughter. Perhaps in five years, certainly in fifty, everyone will know it.

Herzl Diary entry (3 September 1897), a few days after the First Zionist Congress in Basel, Switzerland, as quoted in 'Nonstate Nations in International Politics: Comparative System Analyses (1977) by Judy S. Bertelsen, p. 37; 50 years after writing this in his diary, the state of Israel was established.

I think it's indifference rather than love, but yeah, he could have done so much with so little to stop it, with little risk of the Democrats losing the White House in 2024. Ditto Harris. (Ditto Trump—health concerns aside, he still has 45 months to at least try to redeem himself a bit.)
