Reflecting on his presidency, Obama posed the question, “Well, was there something else I could have done?”

Former President Barack Obama cautioned against ignoring the complexities of the Israel-Hamas war, warning that “all of us are complicit.”

“If you want to solve the problem, then you have to take in the whole truth. And you then have to admit nobody’s hands are clean, that all of us are complicit to some degree,” he said in an excerpted interview with Pod Save America released Saturday.

    There is absolutely nothing “complex” about white supremacist settler-colonialism. End of story.

    It’s a rarity to see someone with their head so far up their own ass as to say something like that and be completely serious.

      Oh look… more people hiding their support for white supremacist settler-colonialism behind (alleged) “complexities.”

      I’d say that if you are finding it difficult to see someone with their head up their own ass you should try shoving a mirror where the sun don’t shine - it’s not going to work for you any other way.
