Who Will Be Held Accountable for Gaza?

The party in power should have to answer for what it has done.

Megan Stack explains why U.S. backing for the war in Gaza is different from other issues in this election:

This is not an ordinary political problem for the American conscience. This is not about trepidation about which judges may be appointed or policy differences about trade and tariffs. Gaza is something else entirely — a stain that will cling to our country.

If opponents of the war believe what we say when we say that the U.S. is enabling mass starvation and genocide, it is hard for me to see how anyone who believes that can vote for the candidate of the incumbent party responsible for the policy. We all know that there is usually no accountability in U.S. foreign policy, except maybe when it is time for us to vote. The party in power should have to answer for what it has done.
