Of course genocide was okay when the Dems supported it.

Past tense? They still support it. They just have to pretend they don't like it because trump is president.

You're right. I meant to infer when they were the ones in charge, but you're right.

I don't think I've seen any Democrat pretend they don't like what the US is doing with Israel and Gaza. Beside the usual gang anyway. There have been some votes changing sides a little more I think, but I can't recall any one of them actually talking about it AND voting against it. Some have talked about how it's bad and yet have kept voting for it. Especially no one speaking up against AIPAC.
