Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

The diplomat said Egypt rejected similar proposals from the Biden administration and European countries early in the war, which was sparked by Hamas’ Oct. 7, 2023 attack into southern Israel. The earlier proposals were broached privately, while Trump announced his plan at a White House press conference alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Your "democrats" pulled the exact same trick a year ago. If trump can turns gaza into a resort town in the first place, its because everything there is destroyed already. By your favorite genocider, no less.

Scumbag

Wow, you're just so over the place so I'm just going to respond here.

While I'll give this ananomous source the benefit of the doubt, yeah I'm soooo sure Biden and the other European leaders' context, motivation, and plan was the exact same as Trump here and was all about permanently relocating the Palestinians making Mar-a-lago II electric boogaloo and give the land to Israel.

Just sit back and enjoy your publicly announced ethnic cleansing then! Both sides! Enjoy your choice of genocider, hope he and his party is everything you hoped they would be!

That's the classic dishonesty from a person who was unfortunate enough to be born in a colony. Let's be honest, being genocide-minded is inherent to anybody being born in America. It's how you guys got your country after all. All you can do is hide behind sarcasm and gaslight people into forgetting your country offered you two genociders to pick from and you picked one like a coward.

Look I'm not blaming you, plenty of people blamed communists when hitler took power.

Look at your being all kinds of bigoted that you accuse others of. You really are no better than the trump you supported.

I'm at peace with my vote, I can see the nuance and differences between the two choices given, even if they're both shit. You just keep believing that both sides are the exact same, keep your protest vote, do nothing, I'm sure things will get better doing that.

Good luck to you and enjoy the results of your pushing for inaction.
