CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Would you truly have preferred that Trump did nothing to try to stop the current wars in the Middle East?
CHOOSE
Middle East under Biden
Middle East under Trump
I understand that some are isolationists and would have welcomed Iran having nuclear weapons instead of giving warning and bombing those weapons.
Many also refuse to support giving missiles to Ukraine so that can bomb the sites daily sending death into their country.
=============
We can choose to ignore that world and allow countries to continue bombing each other with no US intervention or mediation. Or we can try to stop some of the carnage.
=========
BTW, I understand pacifists but not isolationists. I would note that pacifism is a path for individuals, not for large nation states.

I will admit that the middle east is looking a bit better than usual, if you put a screen in front of the piles of corpses the israeli army is still creating during the current "cease fire".
Lebanon says Israeli strike killed 13 people near Palestinian refugee camp
The Israeli military says it targeted Hamas members "operating in a training compound", which Hamas rejected as "fabrication and lies".

But I don't think this moves the needle enough to make up for Trump's failures in other regards.

Trump has a well-deserved worst approval rating ever.
