Good looking US Senator Jon Ossoff (D-GA) sounds a bit wishy-washy:
"US Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff said Israeli forces violated the law of armed conflict and international humanitarian law during its war on the Gaza Strip.
Responding to a question on whether Israel had committed genocide in Gaza, Ossoff said genocide requires a specific intent to destroy a national or ethnic group.
"The question of genocide is a question of whether a government has the specific intent to destroy a national or ethnic group," Ossoff said, adding that the determination was a matter for the International Criminal Court (ICC)."
*PUNT!*
Uh-huh. That sounds like lawyering, not leading.
Loser Andrew "AIPAC" Cuomo, who betrayed the Democratic Party to run as an independent against Democrat Zohran Mamdani in 2025, bleated the same nonsense.
Dozens of academics, the UN, and Holocaust survivors agree that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza.
Google it.
Meanwhile, US Senator-elect Troy Jackson (D-ME) doesn't sound mealy-mouthed:
"Anybody with eyes and a heart knows the Israeli government is committing genocide in Gaza," stated the Maine Senate candidate (10 July 2026).
And Troy Jackson isn't a judge at the ICC.
So, many of us will pass on corporate tools Jon Ossoff, Gavin Newsom, and Pete Buttigieg, thank you very much.
But we will change our minds should any of them declare: "I will recognize the State of Palestine on the day I am inaugurated President of the United States."
That's political and moral leadership.
Otherwise...
Now that he's going to prison, I guess Russell can give up the performative Christianity that he took on when he started feeling the heat of accusations.
