“But the [Gaza talks] were on display…”
“On display? I eventually had to go down to the cellar to find them.”
“That’s the display department.”
“With a flashlight.”
“Ah, well, the lights had probably gone.”
“So had the stairs.”
“But look, you found the [speaker], didn’t you?”
“Yes,” said Arthur, “yes I did. It was on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying ‘Beware of the Leopard.”

They let Bernie on main stage, he called for a ceasefire. Didn’t AOC call for an arms embargo? I know it was just yesterday, my memory is crap, but point being those ideas are on the main stage.

Bernie called it a war not a genocide.

Sure, and almost no politicians will call it what it is and make no mistake I agree it’s genocide.

The only point I was making is that there are people on the main stage talking about Gaza, at this very moment parents of hostages are on the stage calling for a ceasefire. I’m trying to be optimistic, and it seems like it’s gaining traction.

Is there no war there? Last I knew, wars and genocides could happen at the same time, as the Holocaust and WW2 occured over the same years.

– the day after they sent $20 million in bombs to use in the genocide

they’re going to send another shipment and the day after they’re going to say that it needs to stop again.

What do you expect from Biden? He’s always been hard-line on his support of Israel.

Yes he has and it’s the clearest indication that he hasn’t evolved at all on social issues; good riddance.

Sadly AIPAC owns our politics… money talks…

AIPAC is only part of the reason, the biggest is that Israel serves as a military foothold in the Middle East for the American Empire.

Touche, but how about not being in the middle east at all? That would be a nice concept…
