Yes RFK jr has this dissatisfied historical Republican voter. Support and vote. The Uniparty in DC needs to be drained and cleansed. It owns Biden and it will lie everyday about Trump and will refuse to cooperate. RFK is the only one who can speak truth to the American people. Vote RFK for president in 2024.
Bobby, I was so excited at the start of your campaign, so hopeful. But your silence about what's happening in Israel and Gaza mystifies me. It won't be an option if you're president. So what do you think? What would you do? This isn't a test to see if you answer in a particular way. I want to understand how you think and respond as the situation unfolds in real time. Before this, my experience of you was highly encouraging. But your silence these past several weeks gives me serious pause. Please, say something.
You're just not listening. He has said plenty about Israel Palestine including expressing compassion for Palestinians and warning Biden not to escalate the situation and not to fund an expansion of war. He used environmentalism through Jordan Riverkeeper to bring together Israelis, Palestinians and Jordanians.
None of the simplistic narratives contain the whole truth and it's disappointing to see some Kennedy supporters asking him for a simplistic good vs evil narrative, some even expect that he should support Hamas cause, which is as disastrous to Palestine as it is to Israel.
“In recent years, several Arab states have made peace with Israel based on shared interests. As President, I will expand that process and invite Palestinians to join. It's time for Palestinian leadership to recognize Israel as the nation state and homeland of Jewish people and for Israeli leadership to re-offer a two-state solution with safe and secure borders.” - Robert F Kennedy Jr
I believe many of us are listening and he has been a huge disappointment not speaking out about the horrors going on right now! Not what he has said in the past but what has been going on this past month!
You want daily soundbites? I've followed him for decades. I can guarantee he will not be a virtue-signaling soundbite President. He's spoken in various podcasts about Netanyahu "injuring" the moral case for Israel, condemned actions in West Bank, but he's also seen evidence of what Hamas did. Anyone asking for Israel to withdraw while Hamas retains hostages and has no intention to surrender is not a peace activist. What would you expect US to do if Mexico or Canada launched one missile? Hamas has launched 32,000 missiles at Israel. Did Israel strike back? No, they built the Iron dome.
A poll conducted just before the 7 October attacks by Hamas found that 73% of Gazans favored a peaceful settlement with Israel. But after what happened on October 7, you're asking Israel to stand down and not Hamas? Where are the calls for Hamas to release all hostages and surrender?
Did you read any request for daily soundbites? Not from me! Perhaps you could broaden your perspective by reading this piece by Dr. Gabor Mate, himself a survivor of the Holocaust, as an infant. https://drgabormate.com/beautiful-dream-israel-become-nightmare/
I have a pretty good understanding of the conflict. I hope you understand that Israel is NOT a colonizer. In fact, Israel gave away half of its indigenous land east of the river after WWII. Israel did not create an 'open air prison', for which Egypt is as much to blame. Israel had no choice because Hamas declared war vowing to kill every Israeli after they were elected in 2006. Israel is also NOT an apartheid state. According to a Palestine media poll in 2021, 93% of Arabs in Jerusalem prefer Israeli government over Palestine Authority - https://www.algemeiner.com/2021/12/14/report-93-of-polled-arab-residents-of-jerusalem-prefer-israeli-rule-to-palestinian-authority/
I hope that you broaden your perspective as well by listening to the son of Hamas founder Sheikh Hassan Yousef - https://youtu.be/pjOEJumoABg
Just read Mate's piece and how it resonates! (Proud to claim him as a British Columbian, b.t.w.)
What I've realized, after studying with a rabbi and almost converting to Judaism in my youth,
after an Israeli fiance whom I narrowly escaped with my life.
after a pair of Israeli bosses who blatantly despised me merely for being a blonde shiksa (I guess....who knows why?),
after being scared to death by various Mediterranean dates,
after reading David Grossman's piercingly insightful books, and
after meeting Elie Wiesel,
what I've realized is that severely damaged people either heal themselves, like Grossman, Wiesel, and Mate,
or they continue damaging themselves and others.
The former are unsung heroes; for the latter, there is little hope.
We, the outsiders, for...what? two centuries?--have proven that we can never fix the Middle East. Like drug addicts, drunks, and psychopaths, the damaged must themselves find the tools that can help them heal.
All war is horrors. Israel is engaged in a fight that has to be won by the forces of good. Hamas is nothing evil and the people who support them are just as evil. There is no middle here. You either against evil or your not. What Hamas did was evil.
In March 2019, Netanyahu himself admitted that he supported the policy of enriching Hamas to keep the PA at bay.
“Whoever opposes a Palestinian state must support delivery of funds to Gaza because maintaining separation between the PA in the West Bank and Hamas in Gaza will prevent the establishment of a Palestinian state,” he said during a meeting with Likud MKs (Members of Knesset).
This was shared by an Israeli Jew who has condemned his government’s deplorable treatment of its Palestinian neighbors. Said it is an accurate representation of what is happening there. I recently visited Israel and saw some of this myself firsthand.
Palestine - BEFORE - it was bombed into the dark ages and 13,000 men, women and children were murdered and many thousands more maimed - was an OPEN AIR, BLOCKADED PRISON!!! You can put all the perfume and “both sides” lipstick you want on this Israeli pig but it doesn’t change a g’damned thing. F RFKjr, his campaign, and any of you morons still trying to paint this guy as some sort of savior. RFKjr is a right-wing zealot. Period!!!
Who broke ceasefire on October 7? Have you asked Hamas to return hostages and surrender. Israel has evacuated 70,000 civilians to safe zones, while Hamas puts blockades to prevent their movement from buildings they launch rockets from. Before getting elected in 2006, Hamas promised they would negotiate peace with Israel. Immediately after election, they declared war on Israel and there have been no elections for 18 years. Hamas leaders have a net worth of $16 billion while Gazans don't have basic infrastructure. They didn't build a single bomb shelter for civilians, instead built tunnels for themselves. Israel has done more to protect Gazans than Hamas.
How about giving back the Golan Heights to Syria? Stop stealing the Syrian oil? Close down our bases in Syria? Close down all our satanic production labs in Ukraine?
Bobby has set himself apart on EVERY other issue but when it comes to Gaza ,he sounds like every other political sell out. Now just silence.
No one is asking him to fix it , or come up with a solution to a 2000 yr old problem , we are asking for some indication that he acknowledges a humanitarian tragedy that surpasses all political rhetoric and will acknowledge the condition of our collective humanity.
When I listen to him now speaking on all the other issues , the words are empty and hold no special value to me.
His speeches on dismantling the war machine sounds particularly hypocritical.
We don’t want answers on policy or some kind of pie chart that explains his stance on hypothetical scenarios; we want a candidate that can step back from all that and be broken for a few minutes about the atrocities that we are witnessing and how our government is helping get the job done.
I want a response that doesn’t look like he is weighing out his options to see how he can still support Israel while remaining popular among those of us who see a larger picture here.
How can you stay silent on the unbridled horrors that have killed 6000+ children in seven weeks.
And while we are on the subject , what happened with Dennis Kucinich?
If he couldn’t find any middle ground with Dennis , one of the most reasonable people on the planet , that concerns me greatly. Anyway, Im sad and disappointed and feel he let many down.
Going back now to do damage control will not be authentic. Bottom line , we saw his unscripted honest response to a humanitarian crisis and it doesn’t gel with the rest of his campaign. Why?
He has expressed his concern for Palestinian children on several podcasts, and talked about the risk of escalation keeping him up at night. People like you are unwittingly supporting Hamas/Hitler's cause, not Palestine cause. You think you're a peace activist, but you're only supporting terrorism and further persecution of Palestinians by Hamas. Have you read JFK's book, "Why England Slept"? Did you listen both JFK 60 years ago and RFK Jr in his Peace and Diplomacy speech talk about not ignoring "real dangers of the world"? Did you listen to the son of Hamas founder talking about "keyboard warriors in the West" - https://twitter.com/macdazz/status/1717691309039755533
“I support Israel because a secure Israel does not require U.S. military intervention in the Middle East. I have been involved in water issues in the region for many years through Jordan Riverkeeper and brought Israelis, Palestinians and Jordanians together to protect the River Jordan and manage a scarce common resource. I have seen how the environment can be a path to partnership in the region, rather than a flashpoint of conflict. I also support the legitimate aspirations of the Palestinian people. These need not be mutually exclusive. Already, there are many areas of cooperation between Israelis and Palestinians that go unnoticed. The challenge our Palestinian friends face is to decide what kind of society they wish to build. It cannot be one that replaces Israel, and it ought not be a proxy for the militant Iranian regime or overtaken by the genocidal Hamas terror group, as has happened in Gaza. Our conversation with Palestinians needs to focus on the future, not the past. In recent years, several Arab states have made peace with Israel based on shared interests. As President, I will expand that process and invite Palestinians to join. It's time for Palestinian leadership to recognize Israel as the nation state and homeland of Jewish people and for Israeli leadership to re-offer a two-state solution with safe and secure borders.” - Robert F Kennedy Jr
Not here he hasn't, not in any post I've seen. At least he's not ranting bloodthirsty Zionist crap, but in this case, silence really is violence, for a public figure.
You are correct that he is infinitely better than the other viable choices. And even if I might think that this is one issue where Cornel West is better than he is. West is generally off his rocker on just about everything else. Plus, West is not a viable choice nor is Jill Stein. And Joe Manchin is definitely a warmonger. I imagine the libertarian guy that nobody is talking about probably has good policy positions on many issues, but it looks like they're running a no-name this year, so all he has going for him is 50 state ballot access.
That quote was from June 21, 2023 in the Jewish Journal.... Radio silence since Oct. 7 on this issue is fishy and does not exemplify strong leadership at a critical time.
I just listened to him speak on the issue 2 days ago in a podcast, 3 days ago in another podcast. He's made his policy clear, he's urged Biden not to escalate and seek diplomacy, he's expressed concern for Palestinian children, he's been critical of some of Netanyahu's actions, he's condemned Hamas. If you want him to resolve the conflict, find a way to put him in the white house right now. I dearly wish we could do that too
I felt the same way Keith. But I have changed my mind. The only way I won't vote for him is if miraculously JFK comes back to life and runs for potus. I don't think we have a choice, do we? DT? Hmmmm. Sketchy at best....Democrats, corrupted by business interests...so the best way to bring peace to the Middle East long term imo is to have a president who respects other countries, other ways of life and other ideologies without selling out the store so to speak. And is the INDEPENDENT candidate.

I love Bobby but I was deeply disappointed when he canceled on his commitment to meet with Moms for Liberty, whose sole focus is to return public education to EDUCATION not social indoctrination. His commitment at the outset of his campaign was that he would ‘meet with anyone’. He made a commitment to meet with them, and then reneged. Apparently someone on his staff told him that the group was right leaning. Even if that was true, why wouldn’t he meet with them anyway? It’s not too late. These women are committed to returning public school education to focus on academic excellence.
OMG, I feel your frustration people. Please try getting out of your heads. (Or trolling if that's your deal). Negativity is not life supporting. He's not the president yet.
I felt no peace when DT was in office, just constant chaos and bashing of others who didn't agree with him. Constant firings.
I don't feel anything but peace from RFK,Jr. I've read his books, listened to his podcast RFK,Jr. on Apple (created before his presidential run) to see the people he respects and works with, etc. etc. Just listening to him I feel deeply what kind of person he is. He is very intelligent, thoughtful and too much a target for the legacy media (and some of you here) to not be measured. That's what I want as a leader. When there's no peace "here", there's no peace abroad.
The trolls that come here tell me that "someone" is really terrified of your message, which makes me even more likely to vote for you. You don't need to be perfect - you just need to be a whole lot better than any of the other choices out there. And you are.
Biden = force-injected our military with the vax. Trump = loves the vax. That's all I need to know.
And here I thought Trump ran Operation Warp Speed. Which made the vax. Which killed half a million Americans. Did Trump do a U-turn on the vax while I wasn't looking, and tell America it was a big mistake, they really shouldn't be taking the shot because its so dangerous, and so many have died as a direct result? I call that approach: "America First."
Not Trump First. Not Operation Warp Speed First. Not Getting Elected First.
So Trump DID do a U-turn on the vax, he told America it had killed half a million people, and the lying mainstream media didn't cover it??! That's great news. Do you have a link to his Truth Social Post where he said this? He really does live and breathe America First. American Lives Matter.
We have our government to thank, which created the COVID plandemic, forcing us into our homes with an excess amount of time and curiosity on our hands, to finally ask the tough questions and do the research.
“JFK: The Unspeakable” by James Douglass is what sealed the deal for me, in terms of why (if not completely who) was behind it. Also Oliver Stone’s Behind the Looking Glass series.
Living in the WDC area, I joined the RFK Jr 2024 volunteer group (thank you, Jason, Meredith, Joe and John!) this weekend to visit the eternal flame of the JFK resting place. How different our country and our world may have been had he and his brother been spared.
You have my love and support. I pray constantly for you, your family and staff for protection. Thank you for giving us hope and for your courageous heart.
Same as all these other issues since covid that started ripping the world apart in 2020.
Israel was the perfect next ‘push button event’. They’re playing us all perfectly.
I do not believe we have a single truly Peace minded candidate anywhere right now. And I’ve always supported JFK Jr. Because I’ve long respected his early and important work on vaccine safety … but he’s not Superman.
And Superman is NOT coming.
That’s a fallacy that keeps us all divided and arguing.
You watch
When people’s attention span for this wains… they’ll be on to Taiwan next… or something else.
There must be constant chaos for tptb to take control of the globe. There can be no peace.
The powers that be… want one one world governance -and one world religion
Their goal is for everyone to be at odds- everyone has to hate each other to do unspeakable atrocities to one another.
Since 2020 they have attempted to divide people in the following ways-
Free speech vs censorship/disinformation governance
Republicans vs democrats
Conservatives vs liberals/progressives
Maskers vs anti maskers
Vaxxed vs non vaxxed
Blacks vs whites
Pro choice vs pro life
Parents vs school boards
Trans vs anti trans
Pro gun rights groups vs gun control groups
Climate activists vs climate change deniers
Ukrainian vs Russians
Israelis vs Palestinians …
Jewish vs Christians vs Muslims … vs other religions
And ultimately——
Tptb- will keep this going for as long as people engage in (fall for) it.
Emotional despair and overwhelm is one of the main tools of the enemy
So don’t fall for it.
Nothing good comes of it.
Refuse to play into what they want -picking sides and dividing us all!
As an outsider who “doesn’t have a horse in this race”, I look oat the American politics as a phenomenon which (unfortunately) affects the whole world. The reason for that is a very aggressive foreign policy bringing death and destruction to the all four corners of the world for almost a century. At the same time, the defense spending is so high that endangers the entire American economy. Imagine how the Americans could develop the country and eradicate the poverty and homelessness using only a fraction of the trillions reserved for the Military Industrial Complex.
Hence, I believe that the whole world would like to see a true peace candidate, and that means the one with the principles and the spine.
JFK and Eisenhower were the closest ones to that and Jack has paid the ultimate price.
On the other hand, RFK Jr had a chance to become truly great. His opponents are corrupted and ignorant. The people are fed up with the rotten establishment. However, RFK Jr failed to stick to the principles. If you are against the war, against the aggression, against the atrocities, then it doesn’t matter who commits them. You have to point your finger and speak up. But .....
RFKjr a 2nd rate grifter who’s squandered the family name - even his uncle’s death day - in exchange for subservience to ethnic cleansing, war crimes and a Zionist agenda that quite literally knows no bounds..
Hi Rocky...you are perhaps trolling the internet now..I see you everywhere....Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours..and you are incorrect imo. But I respect your feelings of betrayal. We all have them now and then
The choice is between evil and good. Your obviously picking evil. The Palestinian’s had a choice too and they pick evil as well. The Germans in the 1930’s did the same. The Japanese people really didn’t have a choice given their cultural history but they were evil. The evil need to suffer until they choose not to be evil. Many will die because of this. But there is no third choice.
“The Palestinian’s had a choice too and they pick evil as well.”
Perfect. This is precisely the pov many of you RFKjr sheeple have taken. Disgusting. I was in Boston when he announced his run. Primarily owing the stand he seemed to take on Covid I allowed myself a modicum of excitement. But unfortunately, “Bobby’s” deal with the Israeli devil has made him unfit to clean my boots...
RFKjr has 2 - and 2 only - types of supporters remaining. Those that believe as he does that the Palestinian people should be eradicated - and those that don’t give a shit either way. Which one are you?
"That national trauma robbed us of something else that day. With him died a vision for our country that we may yet bring back to life." --- His assassination was what may have coined the term "conspiracy theorist" and by truly understanding who and why he was removed can we begin to heal this country:
The only thing I really need from RFK on the issue of Israel and Palestine is a detailed plan for how he is going to solve this particular problem and stabilize the Middle East in general. He has detailed plans for everything. That is his strength. He can think through a problem and articulate complex solutions. I can live with the strong rhetoric in favor of Israel's right to defend itself in the short term if he tells me how he's going to solve this once and for all.
Yes RFK jr has this dissatisfied historical Republican voter. Support and vote. The Uniparty in DC needs to be drained and cleansed. It owns Biden and it will lie everyday about Trump and will refuse to cooperate. RFK is the only one who can speak truth to the American people. Vote RFK for president in 2024.

Thanks, and any references to specific podcast episodes is appreciated!
I felt the same way Keith. But I have changed my mind. The only way I won't vote for him is if miraculously JFK comes back to life and runs for potus. I don't think we have a choice, do we? DT? Hmmmm. Sketchy at best....Democrats, corrupted by business interests...so the best way to bring peace to the Middle East long term imo is to have a president who respects other countries, other ways of life and other ideologies without selling out the store so to speak. And is the INDEPENDENT candidate.
JFK
Couldn't run as a Democrat
He HAS said “something.” MANY things in fact. He’s said the Palestinian people can go pound Egyptian sand - if they can make it out of Gaza alive!
Egypt doesn't want them.
RFK was not silent about the GENOCIDE in Gaza, he was foaming at the mouth with satanic cheers of the slaughter.
Yeah, that definitely seems like the elephant in the room when you write an article like this. 🤦🏻♂️
“I support Israel because a secure Israel does not require U.S. military intervention in the Middle East. I have been involved in water issues in the region for many years through Jordan Riverkeeper and brought Israelis, Palestinians and Jordanians together to protect the River Jordan and manage a scarce common resource. I have seen how the environment can be a path to partnership in the region, rather than a flashpoint of conflict. I also support the legitimate aspirations of the Palestinian people. These need not be mutually exclusive. Already, there are many areas of cooperation between Israelis and Palestinians that go unnoticed. The challenge our Palestinian friends face is to decide what kind of society they wish to build. It cannot be one that replaces Israel, and it ought not be a proxy for the militant Iranian regime or overtaken by the genocidal Hamas terror group, as has happened in Gaza. Our conversation with Palestinians needs to focus on the future, not the past. In recent years, several Arab states have made peace with Israel based on shared interests. As President, I will expand that process and invite Palestinians to join. It's time for Palestinian leadership to recognize Israel as the nation state and homeland of Jewish people and for Israeli leadership to re-offer a two-state solution with safe and secure borders.” — Robert F Kennedy Jr
Two state solution has been a dead end for both sides for decades.
That horse ain't getting up.
I love Bobby but I was deeply disappointed when he canceled on his commitment to meet with Moms for Liberty, whose sole focus is to return public education to EDUCATION not social indoctrination. His commitment at the outset of his campaign was that he would ‘meet with anyone’. He made a commitment to meet with them, and then reneged. Apparently someone on his staff told him that the group was right leaning. Even if that was true, why wouldn’t he meet with them anyway? It’s not too late. These women are committed to returning public school education to focus on academic excellence.
Blessings on you my brother and Peace be with you!
OMG, I feel your frustration people. Please try getting out of your heads. (Or trolling if that's your deal). Negativity is not life supporting. He's not the president yet.
I felt no peace when DT was in office, just constant chaos and bashing of others who didn't agree with him. Constant firings.
I don't feel anything but peace from RFK,Jr. I've read his books, listened to his podcast RFK,Jr. on Apple (created before his presidential run) to see the people he respects and works with, etc. etc. Just listening to him I feel deeply what kind of person he is. He is very intelligent, thoughtful and too much a target for the legacy media (and some of you here) to not be measured. That's what I want as a leader. When there's no peace "here", there's no peace abroad.
How do you feel with Biden.
You seem to have skipped ole puddin head
Your message works for me.
The trolls that come here tell me that "someone" is really terrified of your message, which makes me even more likely to vote for you. You don't need to be perfect - you just need to be a whole lot better than any of the other choices out there. And you are.
Biden = force-injected our military with the vax. Trump = loves the vax. That's all I need to know.
Trump vax was THERAPEUTIC HCQ NOT MRNA.
And here I thought Trump ran Operation Warp Speed. Which made the vax. Which killed half a million Americans. Did Trump do a U-turn on the vax while I wasn't looking, and tell America it was a big mistake, they really shouldn't be taking the shot because its so dangerous, and so many have died as a direct result? I call that approach: "America First."
Not Trump First. Not Operation Warp Speed First. Not Getting Elected First.
America First.
You thought wrong.
So Trump DID do a U-turn on the vax, he told America it had killed half a million people, and the lying mainstream media didn't cover it??! That's great news. Do you have a link to his Truth Social Post where he said this? He really does live and breathe America First. American Lives Matter.
I'm not on Truth Social this was long before that came about. His vax was THERAPEUTIC HCQ NOT MRNA look it up.
But you're certain Trump has been warning America about how dangerous the vax is? Because American Lives Matter?
My thoughts exactly on the JFK assassination.
We have our government to thank, which created the COVID plandemic, forcing us into our homes with an excess amount of time and curiosity on our hands, to finally ask the tough questions and do the research.
“JFK: The Unspeakable” by James Douglass is what sealed the deal for me, in terms of why (if not completely who) was behind it. Also Oliver Stone’s Behind the Looking Glass series.
Living in the WDC area, I joined the RFK Jr 2024 volunteer group (thank you, Jason, Meredith, Joe and John!) this weekend to visit the eternal flame of the JFK resting place. How different our country and our world may have been had he and his brother been spared.
Yes Peace as children's bodies are wrapped in cloth and now 15,000 massacred.
Where ?
You have my love and support. I pray constantly for you, your family and staff for protection. Thank you for giving us hope and for your courageous heart.
This is what RFK Jr wants. If he gets on enough state ballots Biden will give it to him and he will drop out.
Mark my words, I have said this in the past, now RFKjr is saying it.
"I will create a domestic version of the Peace Corps to give young people a new way to serve their country".
He calls them "Healing Centers'.
PS if you want peace vote for the man with a track record of peace.

Israel touches the third rail.
Same as all these other issues since covid that started ripping the world apart in 2020.
Israel was the perfect next ‘push button event’. They’re playing us all perfectly.
I do not believe we have a single truly Peace minded candidate anywhere right now. And I’ve always supported JFK Jr. Because I’ve long respected his early and important work on vaccine safety … but he’s not Superman.
And Superman is NOT coming.
That’s a fallacy that keeps us all divided and arguing.
You watch
When people’s attention span for this wains… they’ll be on to Taiwan next… or something else.
There must be constant chaos for tptb to take control of the globe. There can be no peace.
The powers that be… want one one world governance -and one world religion
Their goal is for everyone to be at odds- everyone has to hate each other to do unspeakable atrocities to one another.
Since 2020 they have attempted to divide people in the following ways-
Free speech vs censorship/disinformation governance
Republicans vs democrats
Conservatives vs liberals/progressives
Maskers vs anti maskers
Vaxxed vs non vaxxed
Blacks vs whites
Pro choice vs pro life
Parents vs school boards
Trans vs anti trans
Pro gun rights groups vs gun control groups
Climate activists vs climate change deniers
Ukrainian vs Russians
Israelis vs Palestinians …
Jewish vs Christians vs Muslims … vs other religions
And ultimately——
Tptb- will keep this going for as long as people engage in (fall for) it.
Emotional despair and overwhelm is one of the main tools of the enemy
So don’t fall for it.
Nothing good comes of it.
Refuse to play into what they want -picking sides and dividing us all!
We’re being manipulated.
As an outsider who “doesn’t have a horse in this race”, I look oat the American politics as a phenomenon which (unfortunately) affects the whole world. The reason for that is a very aggressive foreign policy bringing death and destruction to the all four corners of the world for almost a century. At the same time, the defense spending is so high that endangers the entire American economy. Imagine how the Americans could develop the country and eradicate the poverty and homelessness using only a fraction of the trillions reserved for the Military Industrial Complex.
Hence, I believe that the whole world would like to see a true peace candidate, and that means the one with the principles and the spine.
JFK and Eisenhower were the closest ones to that and Jack has paid the ultimate price.
On the other hand, RFK Jr had a chance to become truly great. His opponents are corrupted and ignorant. The people are fed up with the rotten establishment. However, RFK Jr failed to stick to the principles. If you are against the war, against the aggression, against the atrocities, then it doesn’t matter who commits them. You have to point your finger and speak up. But .....
Yes if all the leeches would pay for their own defense America could afford all the nice SS they provide their populations.
RFKjr a 2nd rate grifter who’s squandered the family name - even his uncle’s death day - in exchange for subservience to ethnic cleansing, war crimes and a Zionist agenda that quite literally knows no bounds..
Hi Rocky...you are perhaps trolling the internet now..I see you everywhere....Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours..and you are incorrect imo. But I respect your feelings of betrayal. We all have them now and then
What am I incorrect about?
The choice is between evil and good. Your obviously picking evil. The Palestinian’s had a choice too and they pick evil as well. The Germans in the 1930’s did the same. The Japanese people really didn’t have a choice given their cultural history but they were evil. The evil need to suffer until they choose not to be evil. Many will die because of this. But there is no third choice.
“The Palestinian’s had a choice too and they pick evil as well.”
Perfect. This is precisely the pov many of you RFKjr sheeple have taken. Disgusting. I was in Boston when he announced his run. Primarily owing the stand he seemed to take on Covid I allowed myself a modicum of excitement. But unfortunately, “Bobby’s” deal with the Israeli devil has made him unfit to clean my boots...
Go crawl back under your Islamic rock and enjoy the 6th century be yourself.
Not necessary to attack with racist remarks. Rise up to the occasion. We are all in the same sinking boat now, eh?
RFKjr has 2 - and 2 only - types of supporters remaining. Those that believe as he does that the Palestinian people should be eradicated - and those that don’t give a shit either way. Which one are you?
I know this won’t change your mind, but maybe others will get a better understanding of the issue.

Sandwiched between two Israeli flags yapping about “indoctrination,” no, this pathetic propaganda stooge isn’t likely to change my mind...
"That national trauma robbed us of something else that day. With him died a vision for our country that we may yet bring back to life." --- His assassination was what may have coined the term "conspiracy theorist" and by truly understanding who and why he was removed can we begin to heal this country:

The only thing I really need from RFK on the issue of Israel and Palestine is a detailed plan for how he is going to solve this particular problem and stabilize the Middle East in general. He has detailed plans for everything. That is his strength. He can think through a problem and articulate complex solutions. I can live with the strong rhetoric in favor of Israel's right to defend itself in the short term if he tells me how he's going to solve this once and for all.
