    part of me wants to call this the american gaza; but i think that's an injustice to the actual gaza considering what's been happening in the last year.

      It is a pretty hypocritcal thing tho how they are trying to act like they care about keeping innocent people fed while starving Cuba and allowing Israel to not just starve but slaughter Gazans.

        it only matters that they publicly appear to care; see kamala's reaction to the genocide and her continued popular support despite it for more details.

          Democrats were all in a huff when Trump rolled back some of the pro-Cuban stuff that happened under Obama (despite those not being much help, if any), only to have Biden get elected and continue Trump's policies.

      The actual Gaza is already the American Gaza given how much they support Israel
