'democracy' here in the empire hasn't really existed for some time in which we get to choose which face we want to put on the uni party which never attends to our wishes, anyway. its like it was a hundred years ago where henry ford said you could have a car in any color you wished as long as it would be black; 

 

Party leaders are ignoring the three-quarters of registered Democrats who oppose providing military aid to Israel.

Despite growing dissatisfaction among Democratic voters with the U.S.’s ongoing military support for Israel, the House Democratic leadership has picked two foreign policy hawks — Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Florida) and Wesley Bell (D-Missouri) — to join the House Foreign Affairs Committee (HFAC), while also promoting an even worse hawk, Jared Moskowitz (D-Florida), to become a ranking member of the Middle East and North Africa subcommittee.

Moskowitz is among the most right-wing Democrats in the House regarding Israel. He opposes any conditions on U.S. military aid to the Netanyahu government and was one of only a dozen Democrats who voted for a 2023 Republican supplemental aid package to Israel during the height of the Gaza genocide . He has conflated criticism of Israeli war crimes with antisemitism and he authored an amendment to ban the use of State Department funds to cite official Gaza casualty figures. He opposes Palestinian statehood except on terms agreed to by Israel, despite the fact that Israel’s current government opposes any kind of Palestinian state. And he was among the small minority of Democrats to vote against the War Powers Resolution targeting U.S. support for Israel’s war on Lebanon and supported sanctioning members of the International Criminal Court for investigating war crimes by Israel or any other U.S. ally...........more..........
