So who is bypassing congress to deliver bombs to Israel? Is it Trump? I thought Joe Biden is the current president. And Biden kept pushing the fact that he is a staunch Zionist. Also Harris kept talking about supporting Israel, providing a stage for families of Israeli hostages, while denying any Palestinian to speak on stage at the DNC congress.

However your immediate attack shows exactly the problem. When people have the wrong skin colour or are in the wrong place, American culture is fine with denying them their humanity and human rights. And that is across the political spectrum as you are showing with your comment.

If most counties are like 53-47, 55-45, maybe even 65-35, having one county where it is like 90-10 will be dead obvious manipulation.

Judges without elections have a pretty free hand to be racist or misogynist pieces of trash.

So do judges that oppose these. Meanwhile in a racist or misogynist electorate judges will be compelled to cater to those "values"

Yes there is. You need the entire country for national elections and there is one government from one parliament. You might have the same on state level, where interference is easier. But you need thousands of judges in thousands of districts. That will become very easy to interfere with.

But a corrupted muncipal parliament does not have the saem effect, like a corrupted judge, who can let his buddies off free, while imprisoning journalists and other critical dissidents against the cartels.

Problem is the American people being openly in favor of genocide, as long as their team is the one committing the genocide. This includes the "progressives" you find here on lemmy, arguing that it is okay to vote for genocide because the Reps would do more genocide.

The American people, and many other people in the world (Germany, UK, France...) are complicit.

Not sure if it is fascist. It is certainly neoliberal propaganda https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnwBXQ9OXwA

That's what you get for electing a corrupt cop as mayor.

Also Adams is yet another example, why having someone from a marginalized group in office does not mean that the represents or even really cares about the needs of that group past his own political advantage.

Meanwhile under US occupation the production had soared to record highs. Just like in the golden triangle, once the US invaded Vietnam.

I hope for these lawyers to fail in disgrace with their pathetic lies.

Bahrain is practically a puppet of Saudi Arabia and Morocco is sucking up to Saudi/US/EU so that they support their illegal occupation and annexation of West-Sahara.

In other words the only Arab voices there were Saudi voices.

This is just nonsense, i am sorry. 15 years is a long time. The goal was to establish diplomatic ties with Iran again. Instead the US pushed for military hostility. Also it is cynical to demand Iran to have no missiles while the US is stationing missiles in bases and ships in the region.
