Jill Stein: 'Biden can end the Gaza war with 1 phone call'
Jill Stein: 'Biden can end the Gaza war with 1 phone call'
Just a moment...
US presidential candidate, Jill Stein, says because of AIPAC's $100 million funding of the US election, it has become ''politically toxic' to speak out against the genocide in Gaza.
‘If we have concerns about the right to life before birth, how about a right to life after birth,’ she said in reference to Israel’s killing of innocent children and the elderly in Gaza. US President Joe Biden 'can end this war with a phone call’, she added.
And that is why she isn't a serious or viable candidate.
And she never has been.
Oh, she isn't a serious or viable candidate for way more than that, not least of which is the fact that she's a Russian asset.
So I doubt you know the state department released a statement saying nothing nefarious happened while she was seated at that table for a few minutes.
she's not a russian asset.
Reagan did it with one phone call to Begin, calling the invasion of Lebanon a Holocaust. While Biden privately supported it in 1982 saying he would go further than Israel.

Because something that happened 42 years ago is relevant today.
Gee, I wonder of the world and politics and power dynamics are different today.
Hmmmmm 🤔
Hey guys, I've seen this several times since entering this thread so it must be true!
Fuck off with your spam
If she doesn't take the AIPAC dollarydoos and sell her soul she'll never win is what you mean?
Pretty much, yeah. For multiple overlapping reasons (FPTP, media, campaign funding). Which is why reforming the system is critical.
Kind of makes it weird that so many people on Lemmy are like “the system is broken therefore I’m not voting even if the outcome is Trump coming to power and making it 10 times worse.” In my type of logic, “the system is broken therefore let’s reform the system by doing X Y and Z” would be more sensible, to the point that it kinda calls into question their motivations behind saying the first thing, but what do I know.
It's true. She's speaks truth to power and is therefore kept out of political discussion.
Israeli military is funded by the US. They are given weapons. They are given logistical and intelligence support by the US. They are given diplomatic support. They are trained by the US. In almost everything but name, they are a US force. They would not exist without US support.
Joe Biden can tell them what to do at any time, and he chooses to ok the genocide.
That’s an interesting take considering where her campaign money comes from.
Truth to power? Shes Putin's number one fan, and has been for a decade+.
Jill Stein is a bought and paid for russian asset. Her only role is to cause turmoil in american elections however she can, by hopefully siphoning off left leaning votes in key states. She did just that in 2016, a year after this putin meeting, where her vote totals in key swing states were higher than the total margin for Hilary's loss. Her efforts were part of why Trump won in 2016, leading to all the chaos and turmoil we have today.
Her trying to cause division and sow discord in the left wing during this election is the exact same thing she did in 2016 and 2020.
The president can't just unilaterally withhold Congressionally approved aid. You may recall Trump was impeached for doing exactly that.
They gave a joke of a candidate like RFK Jr USSS protection and none for Jill whos polling higher than him.
