    “The US government will evacuate US citizens who have been unable to book commercial transit…”

    And “The US embassy is not evacuating US citizens at this time. There is a commercially available flight available…”

    There’s a word we Americans like to use for liars who stretch the truth to fit their narrative: Republicans. Be a shame if we had to change it.

      Scary the amount of people on Lemmy who just didn’t read what little text is there.

        I upvoted after reading the first couple sentences because I already know Biden is a racist.

        I know Biden is a racist because there’s no way he’d do to any white people what he’s doing to the Palestinians.

        The Palestinians will never, ever, ever get the kind of sympathy the Ukrainians are getting, because the Palestinians aren’t white.

          That reads like it comes from a healthy mind.

          Turn the TV, phone and computer off for a few days my guy. Pick up that hobby you’ve been putting off, as long as it’s not making pipe bombs.

          Downvote all you want, you know I’m right.

          He was born in 1942. He probably thinks white people are the world’s civilizing force, and the Palestinians are getting what they deserve for refusing to accept their white colonialist masters.

          He probably thinks third-world countries “aren’t real countries”, but he has to pretend otherwise because of “political correctness”.

          He probably thinks Israel isn’t bombing the Palestinians fast enough, and complains to Bibi that America could do it faster.

          If he thought anything else, he would be unusual for his age.

            You’re creating a fantasy within your mind assuming what a person you never met and will never meet thinks about geopolitical issues. This is about as unhinged as people get.

              He’s an old white American. Assuming that he’s racist should be the default assumption until and unless he demonstrates that he’s not racist.

              And he has not demonstrated that. He has gone out of his way to fund and supply a genocide of brown people, despite the electoral damage it’s doing to his party.

              Occam’s fucking razor.

              It doesn’t matter what I think. He’ll go down in history as a racist monster, and so will all of his defenders.
