    Not just a genocide, but a SuperGenocide! Wow!

    One that began under Obama-Biden. The US played a similar but far limited role in the starvation of Yemen. It did not veto any UN resolutions, threaten the ICC or the ICJ, invite Bin Salman for unprecedented, record-breaking applause and ovations at Congress.

    A nation-wide civil war that has raged for nearly ten years and where numerous sides are responsible for the death count. I should know, because I spent many nights in 2018-2019 with my Hadhrami friends discussing this war, joined their call-ins with Yemeni politicians and civil activists. I heard them complain about who they know died and who killed them.

    And yet you sit here and tell me “buckle up, if you didn’t like Biden working overtime to slaughter 100,000 children within a year”, followed by hypotheticals. Stop telling me what may happen just because you cannot defend what has happened.

      far limited role

      Lol. They were not only supplying them the bombs, they were refueling the bombers in flight and even bombing by themselves. If you already agree the US is culpable for the deaths in Gaza, imagine how you’ll feel if Trump adds those two ingredients to the party once more
