The “Uncommitted” movement seeking a change in the Democratic Party’s approach to the war in Gaza on Thursday announced it is not ready to support Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris — while urging voters not to back Republican nominee Donald Trump or third-party candidates who could help Trump win the November election.

The “Uncommitted” group “opposes a Donald Trump presidency, whose agenda includes plans to accelerate the killing in Gaza while intensifying the suppression of anti-war organizing,” the statement continues. Additionally, the group is “not recommending a third-party vote in the Presidential election, especially as third party votes in key swing states could help inadvertently deliver a Trump presidency given our country’s broken electoral college system.”

    Having said that there is no hope for Gazans from US since both the parties are bought and paid for by the Israelis.

    American political parties are not in charge of Israel. Believe it or not, Israel has their own elections and elects their own parties.

    Maybe it’s not that both parties are paid off, but that stopping a still-young and flawed democracy from being swallowed up by a far right religious dictatorship sworn to kill every Jew in the middle east in the name of a new Islamic Caliphate, is an issue with resounding bipartisan support.

    Oh, you know what else it could be, has a lot of bipartisan support? Not stabbing our allies in the back, just on principle.

    Huh, maybe not everything you find revulsive is a Jewish conspiracy to control on the world.

      Anything said against Israel is not anti Semitic. It is just realistic.

      Instead of being swallowed by islamic caliphate, the ethnostate of Israel is controlled by a far right, islamophobic government.

      Preventing world recognized genocide is not stabbing allies in the back.

          Why would I entertain your a-historical reactionary bullshit with a substantive response? If I said ‘Hezbollah was justified in firing missiles into Tel Aviv everyday because Israel is a blood-thirsty religious apartheid state dead-set on killing every Muslim in the middle east in the name of a ‘Judeo-Christian crusade’’, would you see it as an honest attempt at good-faith debate?

          Of course not.
