Thoughts on the upcoming presidential election

We all vote for people whom we like. However, there are situations that may not allow us that choice. In this case, I would like to vote for Jill Stein, who I think is the best person to be this country's president because of her education, views and values. However, she has so few votes so far that there is no chance of her winning the election. Since I don't want Trump to be our President again, I have decided to vote for Kamala Harris but will continue to promote Jill Stein for the next election. So far Kamala Harris has made the right statements about domestic and foreign policy. She is not the President at this time. Joe Biden is. So we cannot blame her for the genocide of Palestinians in Gaza. If she fails to act on her promises, I will never support her again. I will welcome friends' comments.

The following words of America's famous journalist and author Chris Hedges tell the truth about the U.S. and the West's complicity in the ongoing genocide of Palestinians.

"The genocide, which the U.S. is funding and sustaining with weapons shipments, says something not only about Israel, but about us, about Western civilization, about who we are as a people, where we came from and what defines us. It says that all our vaunted morality and respect for human rights is a lie. It says that people of color, especially when they are poor and vulnerable, do not count. It says their hopes, dreams, dignity and aspirations for freedom are worthless. It says we will ensure global domination through racialized violence."

Pakistan Welcomes UN’s Invocation Of Article 99 On Gaza | Dawn News English 12/07/2023

Pakistan condemns Israel's genocide in Gaza. It is important to know that despite U.S. intense pressure, Pakistan has so far refused to recognize Israel as a state until Palestinians have a viable state of their own. Pakistan is a nuclear power and a U.S. favorite target for regime-change operations, the latest having taken place in April 2022. Pakistan's unequivocal support of Palestine and condemnation of Israel carries a lot of weight internationally. Here is the link to the "Dawn" report.
