IIRC he had actually originally appealed to the US for help, and there’s a good chance he’d have gotten it too if France didn’t threaten to leave NATO and join the Societ bloc if America took any course of action besides helping them continue to suppress the Vietnamese.
You say her critics are haggling about being perfect? Progressives arent even asking for perfect, they are asking for the bare minimum to follow our existing laws: neutrality.
And your implicit minimalization of whats going on is pretty terrible. We arent talking about school vouchers, PETA, or something trivial and grey shaded here, its a much more black and white and life and death conversation.
Therefore actively supporting a genocide in a far rightwing war with American weapons and now American boots on the ground and American interference in the UN VS being truly neutral and enabling peace are pretty darn far apart high cost positions.
If Israel didnt have those weapons, they wouldnt be able to do so much killing, with so much impunity. This is illegal, unethical, and the cost to the western world order and our reputation is astronomical. So your characterizing it as strving for perfection doesnt seem right to me.
And you arent even considering the second order effects to the concept of democracy and sanctity of borders globally. We have neutered the UN, and that enables and encourages every militant thug in the world.
There’s a big difference between “not perfect” and “enabling a genocide, giving weapons to an ally that is starting a war with all the Middle-East and the UN, and burning children alive in hospital refugee camps”.
There were lynchings going on during the time Ho Chi Minh was hosting the American soldiers who were fighting the Japanese. And Ho tried to get American support before the US spurned him.
And how is getting Trump in going to stop the Israelis? He’d be giving them nukes on Inauguration Day.
People have already asked for Biden and Harris’s help in stopping this genocide and have been spurned. In this analogy, it’s already after they’ve been given the middle finger while bombs have been given to the people destroying their families. And it was barely applicable as it was.
And Israel already has nukes. But doubt they’ll use them, the whole point is to take the land they’re invading all over the place, not irradiate it. There’s not a lot Trump can give them that Biden and Harris aren’t already. They’ve even got boots on the ground now so we have an excuse to invade when some will inevitable die.
Here’s the Socialist argument for Harris.
Ho Chi Minh would have know all about America’s long history of slavery and genocide.
Ho helped the American OSS run missions in Vietnam during WW2.
Your allies don’t have to be perfect.

He still wanted help against the greater threat.
Trump is literally talking about being a dictator and ending elections.
