    she’d be guaranteed to win if would say something small and simple like: we should stop bombing defenseless palestinians.

      No she wouldn’t. I 100% agree we shouldn’t be doing it mind you. But thats ignoring the reality of the situation and just seeing what you want to see.

      Morally Israel should have been harshly rebuked decades ago, as well as today. There would be a lot of push back unfortunately. A lot of money, resources, and votes taken from any candidate that pushed back too hard. So it unfortunately becomes an either or choice. And not a simple do it and get everyone to vote for you type of situation.

      The problem is ideologues and authoritarians don’t understand the need for diplomacy or how it works. They simply jail and Slaughter those who disagree with them. Which in and of itself evolves to immorality. Unfortunately wherever humanity is involved you can have either power or Purity but not both.

      It’s sad that this one issue is all that some people see. So much more is on the line.

        and all of it is less pressing than the imminent loss of life that they’re experiencing where we can help by continuously applying pressure.
