    The glaring difference between the two is our level of active involvement.

    Solidarity is one thing. Actually doing something about Sudan would require some sort of deliberate intervention.

    In the case of Gaza we could likely make a huge difference if we just stopped arming the aggressors.

    We don’t send arms to Sudan. We don’t send arms to Putin. We don’t send arms to the Sri Lankan military. We don’t send arms to Boko Haram. We don’t send arms to Myanmar.

      We do send arms to Sudan, via the UAE and Saudi Arabia, who are behind the genocide as part of Israel’s plan to dominate all trade in the corridor between Africa and India, as described by Netanyahu at his recent UN appearance. It’s literally a second front in the Israeli war for lebensraum.

        Oh in that case, we should probably stop sending arms to Saudi Arabia, too. It’s crazy we’re still allied with them after 9/11.

          Yes. 100%! I remember when Biden was going to make them a pariah state…
