Yeah, i know that it's the same D.Trump that wanted to ban Tiktok in 2020.
Now, he also apparently played a major role in ending the israeli genocide(, « Which would mean that everyone who said a Trump win will make things worse for Gaza was objectively wrong, and that Biden-Harris were undeniably the greater evil. »).
Thoughts ?

Let’s not get too carried away. Israel isn’t ending the genocide, they are pausing the most explicitly violent killings to go back to more subtle forms of killing until they decide to launch more military ops on civilians again. With Miriam Adelson being in Trumps ear as well as largely responsible for his campaign funding I cannot imagine he does anything that isn’t explicitly intended to further Israeli goals. The new ambassador to Israel is a guy who thinks ‘the Jews’ need to control Israel for the Christian apocalypse to begin. I can’t see how that will be an improvement for the Palestinians.

Israel and Hezbollah are about to go at it again in around 6 days. This war isn’t over just because there’s an armistice on one front. Israel still hasn’t evacuated southern Lebanon, and Hezbollah will need to expel them.
