Imagine making a war in another continent a national election issue in yours. Especially when neither candidate agrees with you.

I always thought it was stupid for people to come down on Kamala, who has zero power as VP, for not supporting Palestine. Sorry to break it to you but most politicians anywhere don't. Making it a moot point in terms of it being an election issue. It should be handled at a more grass roots level, by going after your representatives.

If all these people really cared about genocide they would be making noise about not just the one right? There's been genocides going down in China, Syria, Turkey, India,Zimbabwe, Armenia, but everyone seems to only care about the one Network news told them to care about
