      Well, this is an American election? There’s only so much one president can do about the actions of another sovereign nation. In fact, a lot of progressives wish the US would do less

          And what happens when Egypt starts thinking Israel looks weak? Let them use Gaza as a reason to attack? I’m very against what Israel is doing, but this is very reductive. It’s foolish to think that peace in the middle east is not a nuanced subject

            So we should just keep selling them weapons that we know they will use to commit genocide on the off chance that Egypt would invade a nuclear-armed nation?

            They’re not doing it quickly or brutally enough for you?

                If you want to pretend that there’s nuance to genocide, it’s because you want to drag it out for as long as possible.

                  Excuse me if I don’t trust the infallibility of the foreign policy platform of a person who falls back to ad hominem attacks after reading 3 sentences, and failing to grasp their meaning

                    You don’t trust the foreign policy of anyone who isn’t either murdering Palestinians or selling them the weapons to do so.
