U.S. Vice President JD Vance said on April 14 that he is proud of Washington cutting off funding to Ukraine amid Russian aggression, listing it among the Trump administration’s top achievements.

Speaking at a Turning Point USA event in Athens, Georgia, Vance recalled being confronted by a Ukrainian-American over his calls to halt funding for Ukraine.

“And this person got really agitated at me because I was saying we should stop funding the Ukraine war,” Vance said.

    Hamas October 7 incursion was arguably a genocide against Israel. For example Israel Gaza: Hamas raped and mutilated women on 7 October, BBC hears:

    In the video, the woman known as Witness S mimes the attackers picking up and passing the victim from one to another.

    “She was alive,” the witness says. “She was bleeding from her back.”

    She goes on to detail how the men cut off parts of the victim’s body during the assault.

    “They sliced her breast and threw it on the street,” she says. “They were playing with it.”

    The victim was passed to another man in uniform, she continues.

    “He penetrated her, and shot her in the head before he finished. He didn’t even pick up his pants; he shoots and ejaculates.”

    One man we spoke to from the festival site said he heard the “noises and screams of people being murdered, raped, decapitated”.

    And Hamas kidnapped 250 Israeli civilians and soldiers were also taken as hostages to the Gaza Strip, including 30 kidnapped children.

    This was straight out an act of war. Hamas, with the majority support of Gaza Palestinians, started this war. While I do not endorse everything Israel has done in Gaza, the basic justification for Israel’s invasion of Gaza to rescue their hostages was 100% legitimate. And Biden and Harris set limits on what Israel could do, unlike Trump.

      This is the sort of shit Democrat voters say unironically.

      You’re a fucking joke, a fascist repeating hasbara lies desperately trying to normalize genocide. You can pretend history began on October 7th all you want. Unfortunately for you, the days where you could whitewash Israel’s decades long campaign to ethnically cleanse Palestinians from their homeland are over. People see the vile shit you’re spewing for what it is.

      Zionism is just 20th century ethnonationalism trying to disguise itself using the real trauma and oppression of Jewish people as a cloak to hide a holocaust of it’s own making. You alongside ever zionist antisemitic piece of shit including Biden and Harris can fuck right off. You are legitimately no better than Trump or any other white nationalist asshole. Your beliefs are identical and the world can see it even if you can’t.
