The Democratic Socialists of America pulled its endorsement of Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York this week, accusing the progressive congresswoman of being insufficiently supportive of the Palestinian cause and efforts to end the war in Gaza…
Her approach has increasingly strained her relationship with some of the left’s most strident critics of Israel. When she rallied last month in the Bronx with Senator Bernie Sanders and Representative Jamaal Bowman, dozens of pro-Palestinian demonstrators angry over her endorsement of Mr. Biden chanted “You’re a fraud, A.O.C.”
AOC doesnt endorse genocide though. Accepting Israels right to exist is not genocide support. Accepting Israels murder of civilians is. Biden is too pro Israel. Supporting him doesnt mean you share all his views. Trump obviously would be much worse to Palestinians than Biden is. I dont think there is a settlement named after Biden yet.
Accepting Israel’s right to exist is to support settler colonialism. Israel does not exist without the murder and displacement of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians.
