Sami Hamdi on the US election

Via Instagram @theamericanmuslimdialogue @salhachimi : For Kamala Harris, the road to the White House is paved with the bodies of Palestinians.

The reason Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are not stopping the genocide is because they believe that if the genocide stops, they will lose Zionist support and the election. Now is the time to prove to the American establishment that Zionism is no longer a political asset, but a political liability, by defeating Harris at the polls.

Yeah, the political system is old; only White property owning men over 21, got to decide originally. Those rights have been "expanded" to more people, by allowing poor, women, black,... To participate. Is it perfect now? No, but these rights were won when average people fought for them. We can't allow it to slide back.

Genocide usually has a logic; Israel Jews are in the minority, in the land Trump wants to give them (Greater Israel). Why Israel is doing apartheid, ethnic cleansing, and genocide. To maintain the Jewish majority, ethnostate.

Trump is a megalomaniac, he wants to be remembered as a dictator. Why he did "fake electors", fascist divide and conquer, talks nuking Iran, killing Iranian general, shooting George Floyd protestors,... Does Iranian lives don't matter? We can save them. Think George Bush and Iraq, it can always get worse. (Not to mention that Trump doesn't believe in Global warming.)

When you are fighting to expand rights, you don't want to have a psychopath as your opponent.

True true.

It's a shame Garland sat on his hands for over 2 years before appointing Smith. The fact that Trump is free and able to run again shows how f*cked up the US gov't and it's "law and order" really is.

If Democracy is so important, they should have hit the ground running day 1 of Biden's admin.

Sadly it looks like both parties want to continue this insanity. Democratic leaders blame the Republicans for sh*t while not doing anything about them. Good cop/Bad cop. Both horrible cops.

There's also the Overton window; Bernie was more popular after 2 terms of Obama, than after Trump. When we win the Overton window shift in our favor. After Trump won, he normalized right wing positions, that centrists also had to adopt. Imagine if Trump normalizes sending US anti-genocide protestors to black Sites or something...

If we don't want "good cop bad cop", we must stop the "bad cop"... (Do centrists want right-wing to win? Yes, they want the Overton window to move to the center again, that's there the oligarchs like it)
