Now I am not saying that what Biden had done or what Kamala would have done would have been or was enough, but equating Trump with those two shows the lack of understanding of them trying to pressure a long time ally without completely acting to tear up that historical friendship between the two countries. Do you have a source for those numbers btw, a found few articles but most show way less then that so I am curious where you got those numbers.
You lost me at pressure. I recall one occasion where Biden bypassed Congress to send weapons to Israel. What’s your idea of pressure when the Biden administration vetoes ceasefire at the UN two or three times?
40,000 was the low-end estimate, other sources estimated a higher death count: Gaza: 64,000 deaths due to violence between October 2023 and June 2024, analysis suggests
Gaza war death toll could be significantly higher, researchers say
Further protests and continued outcry, better to chance to have had a change in the stance under a democratic administration. Could you tell me under the current administration one if there is a good chance of being arrested or deported by simply protesting and voicing support for the Palestinians?
Didn’t student protesters get arrested and shot at with rubber bullets under Biden?
May 2024 Columbia University faculty ‘horrified’ by mass arrests of student protesters
May 2024 Police appear to fire rubber bullets at UCLA protesters
Yeah a few but you are missing the deportation part which is the stark difference between the two administrations.
