   Marianne Williamson says she'll withhold funds from Israel to stop the war. Is there any other presidential candidate who supports a ceasefire in Gaza?

     I’m pretty sure terrorists DGAF about ceasefire declarations, though?

     @marymessall Biden keeps expressing lukewarm support for abstract ideas like "a two-state solution" and then giving Israel money, weapons, and diplomatic cover to engage in the ethnic cleansing of Gaza.

     NSC Coordinator for Strategic Communications John Kirby said, in the press conference after the ICJ decision, "We have no indication that they are deliberately trying to exterminate the people of Gaza." That's just a lie.

     @evan Biden has already negotiated one ceasefire and is trying to negotiate another, including starting to withhold aid.

     @marymessall on Friday, the ICJ said, "The Court further considers that Israel must take immediate and effective measures to enable the provision of urgently needed basic services and humanitarian assistance to address the adverse conditions of life faced by Palestinians in the Gaza Strip." On that day, the Biden administration cut off funding to the UNRWA, the main group providing food, shelter and medicine to Palestinians in Gaza.

     @marymessall I'm tired of pretending that the president and his cabinet might not know that they are allied with an ultranationalist government holding Kahanist ministers like Ben Gvir, Smotrich and Gamliel. They know, and instead of stopping them, they are providing resources and cover for an erasure project that could very likely be genocide.
