Mr Biden’s speech is his first major campaign event of the 2024 election season
President Joe Biden marked the third anniversary of the January 6 attack on the Capitol by warning that the issue of American democracy will be “what the 2024 election is all about,” as he runs against former president Donald Trump once more.
Mr Biden, who spoke near the Valley Forge historical site where George Washington and the Continental Army were encamped during the winter of 1777 and 1778, told attendees that they were there “to answer the most important of questions: Is democracy still America’s sacred cause?”
“This isn’t rhetorical, academic, or hypothetical. Whether democracy is still America’s sacred cause is the most urgent question of our time,” he said.
Mr Biden said his speech, his first major event of the 2024 election season, was “deadly serious,” and about a topic that needed to be raised at the outset of his campaign.
>What Israel is doing is war.
it’s collective punishment against an ethnic minority in their own borders.
it’s a genocide
I’m sure Netanyahu appreciates that you agree with him that there can only be a one state solution. All that’s left is for Israel to annex Palestine.
That’s what you want, right? For Palestinians to be citizens of Israel? The term for that is annexation.
No, I don’t want a fucking ethnostate you fascist dog
Isn’t an ethnostate the goal of the “Free Palestine” movement? “From the river to the sea” and all that.
Absolutely not, jews would get a vote just like christians and muslims (and everyone else). The issue is that “Israel” as a concept is an ethnostate, and an apartheid government with a facade of democracy.
The goal of Hamas is to ethnically cleanse the Jews from what they consider to be their lands. There hasn’t been an election in Gaza since Hamas got into power.
The “Free Palestine” movement failed to separate itself from Hamas, not that there was ever all that much effort to do so. Apparently too busy making excuses for October 7 to definitively denounce Hamas. Sorry, but despite all the peace and love feelings from some, the movement failed to to be anything more than a fascist movement supported by useful idiots.
Maybe the next generation of Palestinians will understand that the politics of hate only leads to destruction. Or maybe the generation after that, who knows?
A non-violent resistance movement from Palestinians could have success. But the present day Palestinian movement is the opposite of that. To many violent elements in the movement and the violent people hold the power.
Hasbara dog, the only genocide happening is the one perpetrated with American weapons by occupation forces. You are positing a hypothetical genocide in the future, when we already have a clear example of what happens when an apartheid government ends: there was no genocide of white people in south africa, and that is not the goal here either, other than in the wild fantasies of propagandists like you.
>That’s what you want, right? For Palestinians to be citizens of Israel?
no, I want the end of government
wow so edgy
>All that’s left is for Israel to annex Palestine.
that’s already done
I don’t think you understand what the word annex means.
