Trump said to lift all military restrictions on Israel on 1st day in office according to reports

Can we not use Fox News, please? They legally argued in court they are strictly entertainment and no reasonable person would believe them. In other words, they are literal propaganda.

But yeah, I hope the smug voters that sat this election out are happy...

Where my “Democrats are evil genocide people” posters now?

I know this is a disgusting thought but, assuming there are ever free elections in the United States again, Gaza won't be an issue in 2028. Palestine will just be a memory.

Thanks, Uncommitted Assholes.

Well, to all the folks arguing with me on how voting for Harris was bad because of Gaza: CONGRATULATIONS! You REALLY made a point there. The Palestinians had a chance under Harris. Instead of voting for a chance for the Palestinians, you did nothing or voted for genocide. You did it from the other side of the world, where you won't have to suffer the consequences.

the lack of lemmy.ml accounts on this post is amusing.

almost like they're too afraid to admit they were wrong or they were Russian trolls all along.

Why are americans so fuckin dumb? Instead of pointing their fingers at millions of trump voters, they are pointing it at people with empathy for having anti-genocider stance.

It feels like they are just interested in finding a scapegoat to blame rather than asking the real questions, why did so many people voted for trump? Did kamala, despite having more funding, failed to convey her plan? What happened and why it happened and how can it be avoided?

What restrictions?

Boy those pro-Palestine folks that didn't vote for Kamala to protest her stance on the genocide sure did own the Democrats. I'm sure they're super happy about helping get Trump back in office and aren't at all upset about the leopards gnawing off their entire heads.

Did anyone tell the Palestinians that this would have been the same and to not worry? We had brave, brave people who sat on their hands and did nothing in their name, so I hope they're grateful for their "sacrifice."

giving putin a free pass at ukraine will be after lunch, then?

Let's be real. The Zionists in charge are Nazis and there was never a path out of genocide in these elections.

There are no restrictions to lift, but I guess it makes a good sound bite, even if its utter nonsense.

Time for the 2nd stage of FAaFO for all those that fucked around.

No both sides were not equally bad choices for trying to stop the slaughter of non-combatants.

What restrictions?, the article doesnt mention any, Bidens ultimatum came and went with no action.

Both sides were for unconditional aid to Israel, kamala may have added some laments about loss of life but she repeatedly said restrictions on military were off the table. Until someone can point to me a concrete policy that kamala had in her platform that was different from trump then yeah both sides are equally bad on this issue. Trump is worse on a lot of others but to a Palestinian they are both bad.

Me trying to find the restrictions in question just like me trying to find Biden's red line and also just like me trying to find Blinken's endzone and also me trying to find the consequences of Israel's actions for the past 13 months.

What a joke lol

The Democrats aren't in power anymore, Palestine is saved! /s

Hey OP can you list the restrictions currently in place?

The problem is not military restrictions. Biden did not have any either. The problem is recognition of annexed territories. We see how Israel is clearing out the northern part of Gaza and they are already talking about annexing the West Bank. We are likely to see a lot more violence in the West Bank soon. My guess is parts of Jerusalem and Jericho being in focus.

Wait, the ~14,000 dead children complied with American restrictions? The damaging or destruction of over 80% of all structures in Gaza was within restrictions? Interesting. It's honestly going to be tough for the victims of genocide to tell the difference. It actually may benefit Israel's victims since America is likely to massively lose influence in the world with the clown car pulling into Washington. Many nations who likely want to push back against the genocide are under huge American pressure to stay silent and complicit, hopefully as America loses influence that could change.

Not saying that will occur, just an opinion.

Good work Pro-Palestinian voters who support, especially in Michigan, Mango Mussolini or an independent. We tried to warn you and there is going plenty of US made tungsten zipping through the air in Gaza and southern Lebanon, This also means you can kiss the West Bank good-bye and that is Israeli's primary objective.

Despite what Biden said, there never were any restrictions. Israel gave basically had a free for all since the beginning. White phosphorus was used right at the beginning and no consequences happened. They bombed hospital and nothing happened. They killed aid workers and nothing happened. Unless trump sends American troops in then nothing changes, Israel is going to do what it was always going to do.

Uff?

(United Faschists Ftw)?

Lots of monochrome in this thread.

If you took pretty much all of the finger-pointing positions to which individuals are stubbornly clinging to the exclusion of any and all other positions and strung them together with "and"s, you'd have the closest approximation yet to the reality.

Including the restriction on bombing Israel?

Given that Biden was too much of a coward to enforce any restrictions, nothing will really change.

You're so wrong and I hope you're never on "my side".

Yes in this very specific case of genocide, both sides.

There were and are no restrictions from Biden/Harris. They did not stop any weapons or stop giving any money. Their 30 day deadline for food trucks passed and they did nothing. They've already given basically the maximum they could. The only difference in this specific case of genocide between the two is one won't apologize after doing it. They were both still going to do it
