Where is the outrage? Where have all the “humans” gone? Israel slaughtered over 300 innocent civilians in Gaza last night. Most of them women and children.

None of those with #Ukraine, #Canada, #Mexico and #EU flags on their profile raising their voice condemning this outrageous crime.

The sheikh wandered around the city with a lamp

I’m tired of all the devils and the death, and seeking one human

They said it cannot be found, we have searched, As we said before

That which cannot be found I desire

    He’s not necessarily wrong. Muslims at least in Michigan voted exactly for this when they helped elect Trump.

      the different diasporas in the US are highly likely to be reactionaries and hate their places of origin, these are american citizens after all.

        And yet the call to vote for Trump was supposedly because Kamala would be worse for Palestine. While I can understand the argument that neither would be good for the region, pushing to elect Trump was always going to end this way with the added bonus of fascism here in the US.

      They voted for the candidate that promised peace and wasn’t actively doing genocide. Trump lied when he promised peace, clearly, but grave dancing because voters were tricked is vile.

      We should be agitating them to action instead.

        Trump is a fascist liar. That’s a well-known fact way before the first time he was elected. There’s no excuse for having voted for him in the first place. Anyone who did so is a fucking idiot who’s only going to make the misery spread far beyond Gaza now.

          And while you’re scolding voters for being idiots, the fascist is consolidating power.

          We need to work together, not bicker over a mistake people made months ago. Especially since voting might not matter anymore.

        Anyone that realistically thought Trump would help Palestine is a moron. Netanyahu is the person who is leading what is going on in Palestine and has applauded Trump on numerous occasions. It also wasn’t just Biden Congress was the one giving weapons to Israel and they have voting records.

        Trump has always been a liar, this is not an excuse.
