Trump’s Israeli ambassador pick Mike Huckabee called Palestinians a ‘made-up’ people
Mike Huckabee, Trump Israel Pick, Called Palestine 'Made Up'
I wish it wasn't so tragic, so I could laugh at people who couldn't vote for Harris because Biden didn't single-handedly stop the genocide.
The great majority of those people aren't on here talking about it anymore.
Well, the Russian trolls aren't needed anymore now that Trump won.
Yeah, shocking.
But happily downvoting. I hope all the terrorist simps here are happy for going after Harris, because this is the result they consequently wanted.
No, your admin and mods banned those accounts in the lead up to the election under the reason "troll," because you people (meant as offensively as reasonable) can't take opposing view points or the guilt of explicitly supporting genocide.
I didn't expect Biden to stop the genocide.
I expected him to try.
Today they were kinda proved right, though. After having imposed another deadline on Israel and that deadline having again expired they again won’t stop sending arms to Israel. Even when this is the last fucking chance before Trump is taking over. You can’t just ignore this shit.
Face palm. It's fucking tragic what is about to escalate for the Palestinians. I hope all the people that blathered on with nonsense about "Genocide Joe" are able to do some self-reflection.
FFS.
Narrator: They aren't.
Seeing as biden gave billions in support of israel while they carried out this genocide for over a year, the moniker is well-earned. Hopefully you do some self-reflection to realize that both parties full-throatedly support israel. The other guy being worse is not an excuse to support genocide. Democrats will keep talking about how much worse republicans are while moving to the right in pace with them.
I, for one, am shocked. Shocked I tell you.
Who could have guessed Trump would appoint somebody who doesn't recognize the victims of genocide as real people? It's not like Trump called pro-Palestinians protestor "pro-Hamas thugs" and "jihad sympathizers" or said "I will give Israel the support that it needs to win but I do want them to win fast" or called attempts by Biden to negotiate a cease fire an attempt to "tie Israel's hand behind its back".
How could anybody have known? By looking at how he handled conflicts in the area during his first administration? What are we? A nation of nerds that try to make educated decisions about our political leaders?
/s
What real difference does this make though? I honestly don't see what actually is going to change in Gaza. Yes, Biden isn't overtly racist against Palestinians, but he doesn't consider them human beings either. He's given Israel a complete blank check to do whatever they want. And I expect that to continue unchanged under Trump. As a practical matter, I really don't see what Trump can do that Biden already hasn't. Trump will just be a lot ruder about it.
It least he is not going to lie about his intentions.
Seems like you are poorly read and have a bad imagination.
Luckily for you, I don't think it will take long for you to witness first hand what Trump can, and will, do that Biden or Harris would never.
The whole world is about to take an L because of us
All people's nationalities are made up.
Just like all nation state borders.
Just like all religions.
Hell, someone pulled your vaunted, family crest owning last name directly out of their asshole at some point in your ancestry. It's all just ego stroking bullshit.
The problem, as always, is that people take these made up bullshit designations seriously, to the point of mass murder.
We are all actually the same species, capable of similar highs and lows of emotion, of pain, of hunger.
Too bad most everyone refuses to start and end with that, because if we're all equally deserving of empathy and resources, how can I get mooooooaaaaar than those other people I'm clearly better than? Because my Parents, President, and Priests said I deserve more than those bad people that live in the wrong place and suck the wrong imaginary friend's imaginary dick.
Genuine question: To all the Democrats who chose not to vote for Kamala Harris because of the Palestinian issue, what's your thought process?
Am Canadian.
Canada didn’t exist a few hundred years ago.
Are we made up people too?
Yes?
Have you seen Canadian money? Its like Monopoly bills.
And maple syrup doesn't exist. Who even believes you can get sugar from a tree?
/s
thanks for not voting. that was really smart
Mike lookin a lot older since I last saw him, hope he dies soon 🤲
It's weird that he's still even a thing in politics. He's recently just been running some irrelevant conservatism for kids grift. Why would he even be on the list of people to elevate?
I imagine it is specifically because of what we are discussing in this thread.
I feel like Trump does value loyalty, as we’re seeing with the people he’s elevating in this transition. It seems to be people who never really wavered in their sycophancy toward him, while others were jumping ship or hedging when he lost to Biden.
That should make things better for the Palestinians.
Mike fucking Huckabee... The next four years going to be a remake of American Psycho 2, live on stage.
Sad to see this guy come out of irrelevance. Go back to slinging bogus sleeping pills to suckers
You mean like Mormons?
Hey look, Mormon Jesus really did appear to Joseph Smith and told him to start a church and sell spots in heaven for any family that wed their daughter to him.
[My father] asked me if I would be sealed to Joseph ... [Smith] said to me, 'If you will take this step, it will ensure your eternal salvation & exaltation and that of your father's household & all of your kindred.['] This promise was so great that I willingly gave myself to purchase so glorious a reward.
Sounds all very legit, daughter for heaven. Mormon Jesus is just cool like that.
I’ve already commented but sorry I got to say
“The first ever mention of an ancient land called Israel was by an Egyptian Pharaoh, Merneptah, 3429 years ago,” reads a meme that has made the rounds on Facebook. “The first ever mention of an ancient land called Palestine was by an Egyptian opportunist, Yasser Arafat, 57 years ago.”
Literally the Do you have a flag argument.
Doubly insane when the first mention of what's thought to be the Palestinians was by Ramesses III, 3199 years ago.
It's as if "first" has become a legitimate argument for existence
The entire United States has some problems if "was there thousands of years ago" indicates who should be allowed to control and oppress people now.
Didn't the Romans call it Palestine after crushing a Jewish uprising? So no not 57 years ago.
Anyways the Arab voters made their bed by voting for Trump and not genocide joe or whatever they called Harris.
Good luck with that now.
If you call yourself anything but a human being, youre making it all up
"Made up" people or made up "people"? Quotes matter.
