Sorry if you think that my posting reflects "bad faith". I have responded to comments a few times, but generally I'm trying to get useful articles out to the Fediverse. (I also post a lot in Mastodon.)
I did write one long comment on voting for Harris, where I stated that it is a difficult decision for me, because each day I get angrier at the Biden/Harris blank check for Bibi. At the same time, I clearly don't want Trump.
You're seeing it from the outside so you won't understand them. They don't have the need to lie when things worsen. Even They've already expected things will be worst under Trump. Just to aid you to understand their mindset: Suffering 100x more by your enemy is much more endurable than the bitterness of being betrayed by your own kind.
“We are in a moment where our community is suffering and hurting in more ways than we can count. We have also seen four years under a Trump presidency and what that did to our community, and the risks that come with that,” said a spokesperson for Arab Americans for Harris-Walz. “We’re not saying that with a Harris administration there is no risk, but under a Trump administration, the risk is much higher. We believe [backing Harris] is a more favorable path forward for us here in the United States and in our home countries.”
It's not too late, Kamala can pivot to the left and pledge to obey the Lehey law.
If she does, then Israel either changes their behavior or they stop getting any military aid/arms from America.
That's all that needs done, Kamala to pledge to follow the law.
It's not a big ask from voters, and it would hand her the votes she needs in the states she needs to win the election.
The problem is that Kamala (along with every politician in the U.S.) has to weigh the how much support they will lose if they support ceasing armaments to Israel with how much they will gain by doing so. I’m betting the polling data shows fairly conclusively that they’d stand to lose more voter support by ceasing arms shipments to Israel than they’d gain. At the very least, I’m betting that’s the fear of a lot of Democrats.
