My full response is too long to submit as a comment to the White House, so please read "Dear Joe Biden" on the Philosophical Rebellion Substack for my full comments.
Dear Joe Biden,
As a former Biden voter, you have lost my vote through immoral policy. My vote for you is on the table, but you must change your policy towards Israel if you want to earn it back.
You’ve lost my vote through the unconditional support for Israel even knowing that Israel is engaged in the bombing, collective punishment, and planned starvation of civilians in Gaza. If you want to earn back my vote and support from your base, here is how;
In a 30 day review,
1. Direct the State Department to determine if Israel bombing any schools, hospitals, UN facilities, refugee camps, evacuation convoys, designated safe zones, apartments, teenagers walking through rubble, or 6 year old kids like Hind Rajab plus the paramedics trying to save her ever constituted a war crime or gross violation of human rights.
2. Direct the State Department to determine if a siege on Gaza by cutting off food, water, electricity, and medicine to the entire civilian population of Gaza violated any US or international laws like the Foreign Assistance Act.
3. Since it was the global consensus of the world’s leading human rights organization that Israel was committing the crime against humanity of apartheid before the war, direct the State Department to determine if the reports from Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch were accurate.
4. Direct the State Department to determine if the Genocide case from South Africa to the ICJ has merit; that case includes an 84 page document detailing war crimes as well as the expressed intent from Israel leaders.
5. Enforce the Leahy laws!
The response to my first letter was disappointing; I hope you truly consider these recommendations. War crimes and crimes against humanity are always wrong regardless of who commits them, even when its Israel.
