“What has happened in Gaza over the past nine months is devastating. The images of dead children and desperate, hungry people fleeing for safety, sometimes displaced for the second, third or fourth time,” Harris said. “We cannot look away in the face of these tragedies. We cannot allow ourselves to become numb to the suffering. And I will not be silent.”

Well, for starters I'm not from the US, so it's not my dime

That explains a lot. It must be even easier to support war and genocide when you're neither voting nor paying for it.

Try again. I don't support war or genocide, the Spanish government I voted for, has already recognized the State of Palestine, has been sending aid to Gaza for a while, and is charging Israel a good dime for its weapon purchases. Hey, now that I think about it... is that your dime we're getting from Israel? 😘

Anyway, the collapse of the USD is likely to cause many wars all around, until the world settles into a new status. I don't really like that either.
