Who's distracted (or unaware), and off of whose radar, is the "Gaza obscenity?"

Harris is being wagged by Israel, or whatever she thinks the voters favor, now. Unless you think, possibly correctly, that Biden won't relent in his "ironclad" support. He is, after all, the president, and Harris isn't.

I don't care how nice and soft Harris is. Every day, more innocent Palestinians get killed. They don't have time to hope she's nice and soft and gets elected on hopes she'll change course, which she's given no indication of doing.

I sign petitions, sometimes more than one, every day. I suspect you do, too. I don't know how many members of Congress boycotted Netanyahu's circus act. I know one who didn't displayed a sign that said "War Criminal." But she was there. What's going to convince Biden and Harris to stop this NOW?

Courage, brother. Gabor Mate helps us on this stuff. He said -- and I have confirmed it listening to Palestinisans and Palestinian-Americans, that even though we (Demonstrators, pundits, et al.) do not save a single finger on the hand of a single Palestinian child, we can still say "I see you" to a people whose story has been disappeared into mainstream (which IS Zionist) propaganda. Yes, that is important to Palestinians in Palestinre and the diaspora, (I stand on a busy corner for an hour or two with a Palestinian flag and a handful of other people. It's hot, it's lonely, and it can be depressing. I make comments, jokes and have semi-t=random emcounters. it also is what little I can offer of what you see among Palestinians: SUMUD.
