    • We also cast doubt on the death counts, even though they were verified by third parties and found to be accurate for every prior conflict

    • We then refused to apologize when fucking hamas of all people showed the receipts 2 days later with name, age, and Israeli-issued ID number

    • We also sent diplomats to Israel multiple times throughout the conflict and encouraged them to “defend” themselves

    • We also pretended that we have no ability to force a pause in the conflict, even though we recently admitted we successfully paused Israeli attacks twice to get US citizens through Rafah crossing

    • We blocked multiple UNSC resolutions even after forcing the changes through that we bitched about in the first place

    • We waited multiple days to even mention the islamophobic attack that led to a Palestinian boy being stabbed to death and his mother being hospitalized

    • We then patronized American Muslims by shifting the conversation to domestic islamophobia rather than actually addressing their grievances of America’s decades of involvement in destabilizing the Muslim world and killing of innocent civilians

    • We silenced officials who spoke out against excessive violence by the IDF and made memos preventing the mention of a ceasefire

    • We sent 2 aircraft carriers to the Eastern Mediterranean to support Israel and ensure no neighboring nations could prevent the massacre against Gazan women and children

    • We pushed for tens of billions of dollars in aid to a country thousands of miles away led by an openly fascist and genocidal governing party. A country that we have sent over a hundred billion dollars of aid in total since its founding.

    • A member of our government (paraphrasing) said “civilians die in war 🤷‍♂️” without any reprimand

    • As commander-in-chief, we authorized American military specialists to help plan the ground invasion into Gaza

    • We didn’t give a damn about hundreds (at least) of Palestinian-Americans who were literally starving to death and were stuck in Gaza as it was bombed for weeks

    • So many more things I could write an essay on it
