Cornell West and Jill Stein are proponents of helping the Palestinians, so I imagine one of them.
All the other, mainstream, candidates are vocally pro-Israel. Trump and RFK are more pro-Israel than Biden.
My ultimate hope is that Biden grows a spine on this topic, and draws some rules of engagement for Israel if they wish to receive further aid; however, they seem to have the US govt by the balls somehow.
I really think that he can’t grow a spine on this. I really wish he could. For people that old (like trump) it is difficult to grow out of these old habits. It’s like asking your grand parents to stop calling black people boy cause it’s racist.
They don’t want to understand. Growth is hard. The western world gave Israel a pass for so long because “we didn’t really think the Holocaust was that bad till we got there.” Now they can’t see that Israel grew into a fascist state.
That is why I think we need younger people in charge and it frustrates me about our choice. Still obviously vote for Biden.
Serious question for any leftists here who are voting third party - which candidate do you recommend?
PSL or Green
