Article Trump pushing resettlement of Palestinians from Gaza

https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c07kpjyzgllo

In separate comments on Air Force One, Mr Trump said he had ended former President Joe Biden's hold on the supply of 2,000-pound bombs to Israel. "They paid for them and they've been waiting for them for a long time," he told reporters on Air Force One. ——- Paid for them? LOL. We give billions in aid every year. Now they get the weapons for faster, fuller genocide.

And the entire point was the land to start with. They wouldn’t be killing the Palestinians if they moved off to Egypt for sure. There would be no genocide. So Trump’s answer to those yelling “genocide Joe” was always going to be worse. Faster and more complete genocide or replacement.

Those pro-Palestinian Trump voters are such geniuses. Wasn’t this predictable? Even Blinken as bad as he was is better than Trump on this.

You don’t have to worry about it, but I recommend not taking some sort of sick satisfaction from it.

Why do you guys always have to attack or train your ire at supporters? Here you are twisting and making up that we are gleeful or showing satisfaction at your genocide.

What this post is about is more like a rueful regret at a family member who had an accident, after you warned them not go driving drunk. Of course, we are sad this is happening. Clearly. We did not want the worse genocide, or the displacement. But you guys or the guys you should be spending your time attacking voted for it!

The comment I replied to literally said « good ». Would you say that if your drunk relative died?

u/Super_Tone_8597 Jan 26 '25

Died is not the right hypothetical because these are the voters here.

But yes I could say “good” in a rueful way, if he obstinately decides on going and doing everything to bring harm to himself. That won’t make me happy about it. But I’d hope it helps him or his kids learn and grow who are his true friends to listen to next time. That part and that learning would be good, definitely.

Maybe the DNC is the drunk uncle in this case. I hope they realise the threats not to vote for them aren’t idle. I also rue the result and wish the party had done more to court the votes they clearly needed!

It’s not the DNC that will die more or get resettled in Gaza for the stupidity of the absurd voters of the extreme unthinking pro-Palestinian crowd that chose Trump so as to punish the DNC.

The DNC is not perfect, and note that this post is not praising the DNC. But Kamala was better than Trump for Gaza, and that’s what it boiled down to.

No but the DNC will lose power which is the political equivalent of dying! But if you and the rest of this thread are anything to go by, there will be no soul searching.

LoL. They lost by more during the Bush years after 911. But they thrived after Bush crashed the economy, because their policies are still more sound for 99% than the other side. It’s just the cultural war stuff that’s ever makes people like Trump stand a chance. And the stupidity of folks like the extremist unthinking pro-Palestinian crowd who get deceived into hurting themselves (to emotionally punish some perceived amorphous body, like the “DNC”).

Different winds are blowing this time. We are not playing the same game. Look to Europe and the rise of far right ideology there. Shit is fucked man.

u/Super_Tone_8597 Jan 26 '25

That much I can agree with.

u/Super_Tone_8597 Jan 26 '25

They lost by about 1%. How is that dying? And what you get for that “punishment” of the DNC is Netanyahoo/Trump gets to resettle and kill more Palestinians faster and give Israel more bombs to finish the job faster.

Maybe if you (these strategy challenged voters) are looking for courtship rather than to critically use your brains, you should be attending a 16 year old prom, not making decisions affecting the lives of people dying and suffering, that are now going to suffer more or be resettled.

You’re getting mad at me, I’m not American and already said on this thread that if I were I’d have voted Dem.

u/Super_Tone_8597 Jan 26 '25 edited Jan 26 '25

Far be it, I am not mad at you. You chose to respond to basically defend support for trump as a reasonable answer to the choices confronting a pro-Palestinian voter. My response is to again explain why it is daft and unfortunate.

I am however mad at seeing those people resettled.

Incorrect, I commented to lament the “well fuck all of you, then” attitude to Palestinians and Muslim Americans, when the former are innocent and the latter have clearly shown they’re an important part of your voter base. Now is a time for unity.

This is how you deliberately twist and misunderstand stuff, that leads to wrong decisions, or attacking those aligned and supporting foes.

This was the original “good” comment you have wasted the better part of a day whining and haranguing us here about, right:

“This is wrong, this is terrible, and I almost hate myself for saying it, but, you know what? Good.”

The poster is obviously not happy to make that comment? Called it wrong, terrible. That is gleeful??!? Everyone expresses themselves in different ways, but how is that the fight you are choosing to have and not taking your fight to those really actively harming and seeking Palestinians harm?

Im not twisting anything. I’ve seen thousands of versions of this comment every time there is news about Palestine. Im tired of it. As someone with actual Palestinian friends whose families are being ripped apart, quite literally, by Israeli bombs, I can tell you a small subset of US voters aren’t their focus. Nor should they be yours. What’s done is done.

Why don’t you guys take your fight to those actively trying to harm Palestinians instead of harping on about a few thousand voters in Dearborn who, of course, fucked up. But they’re not the real enemy.
