Empires
Empires do not die easily; they die hard. I am talking about the US. support for Israel committing genocide in Gaza; the atrocities Israel commits do not matter, the US. will be by its side against the world that regards it a pariah state bent on destruction of the Palestinian people. Democrats think Donald Trump is a fascist and will destroy democracy as we know it, but they fully support Israel’s destruction of Gaza and the Palestinian people. They don’t see the contradiction; they think it is perfectly normal to oppose the fascist Trump and support a country that is committing genocide; they don’t see themselves as fascist because they do not support Donald Trump; they consider themselves defenders of democracy fighting a fascist regime; and when Donald Trump tells Israel to kill all the Palestinians but do it quickly they sit on the sidelines and say the Palestinians have a right of self-determination but Israel has a right to defend itself; this duplicity makes them co-conspirators with the very government they decry as fascist. You cannot be for democracy and for a genocide in Gaza; you are either a democrat or for genocide; you cannot be for both. Empires do not die easily; they die hard.
