This one really keeps getting better and better. And even amongst all the batshit craziness, the question that my brain somehow can't get over is "why Ireland?"
Only allowing abortions when the life is the mother at stake absolutely ensures women will die being denied care. Doctors being asked to make the judgment if a situation is life threatening will sometimes get it wrong. This may sound obvious, but it hadn't been so crystal clear to me until now.
Wishing you all the best pulling yourself out of awful place.
For Trump, his track record, and the things he and his people have been saying (I do recommend the video in the article). For Harris, so far not much more than rhetoric. By all accounts the Israeli right seems to have a strong preference. Why do you think that is?
www.nytimes.com/2024/10/08/u... This is a short article that touches on quite a few of those topics. I worry Trump would support (or not care about) expulsion and annexation and I hope - perhaps naively, I'll admit - that Harris would not.
The organization that emerged from protests against the Biden administration’s Middle East policies now says a second Trump term would be far worse.
Two possible outcomes: President Trump or President Harris. Every other options off the table. If you have a case to make why one or the other would be more likely to end the genocide please let me hear it. Otherwise I stand my point as depressing as it is.
I mentioned elsewhere in this thread I am not a US citizen and therefore do not get to vote on this. If I was, I would vote for the candidate that I think would offer the better path forward even though she was official in the current administration and holds positions I object to.
On that issue, horrifyingly, the answer may very well be that it doesn’t matter. It’s possible neither withhold arms or exert influence on Bibi. That said, on the issue of what happens once the bombs stop falling, I think there are reasons to believe Harris would be the better choice.
