    I think it’s fair to say we all want the death and suffering to end. I’m curious, however, about the overarching goals of those advocating for Stein and such. Some people have suggested that Russia and China stand to benefit the most from America cutting off support to Israel. Russia has certainly vied for influence in the region and generally picks up whatever America leaves behind for pennies on the Ruble.

    To summarize my question: if the US cut off support to Israel with the intent of ending genocide, wouldn’t Israel simply partner with Russia or China instead?

    I don’t see how this helps Gaza, but it seems like to make the situation worse.
