    Possibly. But it also could have triggered a massive backlash against them (via the Israeli bought media and the easily manipulated US electorate).

      Neat how you can blame the candidates in a hypothetical that involves going against netanyahu, but blame the voters in the reality where sticking with netanyahu was what happened. Then it was the fault of those evil voters who dared to criticize your perfect genocide candidate.

        It would be the choice of the voters either way. But voters are easily influenced by the media (either way). And Isreal controls a lot of purse strings. Of course it’s the voters fault for being manipulated (either way), but I specifically blame those who would seem intelligent and progressive and supportive of Palestinians when they vote in a way that harms progress and Palestinians. That is just so fucked up it deserves ridicule and scorn.

          Or ever breathe a word about how genocide is wrong as long as a centrist democrat is supporting it.

              No, you should protest and lobby as much as you can - but not once the primaries have passed and we’re into an election

              And you’re acting like the primaries are fair again because you get the results you want from the cheating.

              Democrats are never the better candidate, Democrats answer to the exact same people that Republicans do.
