The kind of cease-fire you demand would be a death knoll for Israel. Not one time since Hamas attacked Israel has a call for a cease-fire by Israel been accompanied by a call for the immediate release of the hostages and either the surrender of all Hamas weapons or whatever it takes to make sure that another October 7 could not happen. Hamas gets to state the details of a cease-fire and Israel is expected to go along with it. That is a statement that all a terrorist group has to do is attack another country and then plead for a cease-fire because they have been retaliated against. That is totally unacceptable.

And urging Democrats not to vote for Biden is stating unequivocally that you prefer a fascist dictator in an authoritarian state in this country rather than let another country figure out how to defend itself and ensure its survival. I am so disappointed in you, Michael Moore.

Michael,

Instead of everything you are doing, please consider anything else.

Why aren’t you asking the President to tell his country what his plan is?

You act like the President has no idea what he is doing and yet he has an almost limitless supply of brilliant people to draw upon to advise him and strategize for him. What the hell are they doing?

Whenever I think of something that I think is brilliant, I find out that only a couple million other people already thought of it. Those people are working for the country too. Don’t believe in Biden alone because he is not alone.

Please put your shirt back on and stop screaming at Biden. You know he is the only chance the US has of having a pleasant next 4 years and a future devoid of at least immediate civil war.

Please Michael! Don’t put this mess all on Biden’s shoulders when you know, if you haven’t cooked your brain, that the people still pulling the real strings on what is happening in the Middle East don’t give a flying fig what Biden does.

Please care for yourself.

All the best,

David

Mike, I have read your memoir and watched most of your films. I feel I am a progressive like yourself but I do not agree with you encouraging people to vote uncommitted during the primary and now you continue to lambaste Biden when the alternative of having Trump we know would be even worse (if you could imagine) then what is going on over in Gaza! Do you think Trump would do "anything" ? NO! He would make it even worse! Please stop it. Biden is who we have . Yes, encourage him more to see that America cannot send bombs - they are killing people. Let's just help Biden get re-elected. Why aren't you mentioning Sudan, Ukraine - these countries are just as important - They are experiencing genocide too.

Worthy of note: Many of the Iranian drones shot town were done by the Jordanian air force. Think about it: At the behest of the United States, an Arab state came in to defend Israel. (The joint effort included the US Navy and Britain's royal air force.)

Mike, do you want Trump in office? You think Secretary of State Kushner (yes, I've heard that floated) would give a crap about the Palestinians?

My allegiance is to the United States and its best interest -- not to anybody else. Be careful with your words, sir. If you encourage people to sit it out, or vote for "no label", you're going to elect Trump. His people are fanatic and not waffling.

I love you Mike, but you're starting to lose me. We need to focus on the alternative to re-electing Biden.

Why are protesters insisting on biting off their noses to spite their faces? If they succeed in getting Trump back in office, things will be dramatically worse for Palestine and we will have our very own version of the far right despot Bibi in power here.

I honestly can’t believe the number of clearly intelligent people who actually believe that Biden - the man who repeatedly declares he is a Zionist, the president who is authorizing emergency funding in the BILLIONS - repeatedly - throughout this genocidal assault on babies, children, women and men and their young children, their elderly and sometimes mobility-challenged parents - Biden repeatedly lobbies Congress for more weapons to kill these humans who have suffered multi-generational assaults, mass murders by IDF of their families - all because Israel isn’t satisfied with the stolen land they were gifted in 48.

The Israeli settlers ARE the IDF.

AND any Americans with dual citizenship who are there now as IDF should stay there. Because we don’t want them. They’re evil IS-Nazi Zionists.

Then you wonder why our cities have police forces that are armed to the teeth. And then kill at whim their own citizens over and over, with zero repercussions.

It’s called Fascism. And if you tell me I should be ashamed of not voting for a govt that has given insane amounts of our tax dollars to support a genocide, think again about your ask. Because you are supporting fascism and you don’t recognize it.

Michael, I could not agree with you more. Biden needs to wake up, stop counting his blood money, and do the right thing. To blame you or anyone else for Biden losing in what should be a slam-dunk race is beyond ridiculous. Shame on Biden, and shame on anyone who supports his actions in the Middle East! 💯🇵🇸💔

Dear Michael, Please do not urge your followers to abstain from voting for Biden….He would be a better alternative than Trump don’t you feel or think that? My heart truly goes out to those in Gaza. However, would it be better to not have Biden as President? And have Trump instead ?

As always focus on the LOVE and TRUST the process….

The hell of it is real and everyone. Everyone, everyone is scared – Biden is afraid of not getting elected and afraid of losing the Jewish vote which are not helpful or accurate in assessing the situation. The Holocaust was so unimaginably horrific that Netanyahu is afraid if he doesn't kill every last Islamic citizen, he is dangerously close to replicating the Nazi 30s and 40s, which is also not assessing his situation. It seems no one is looking at the bigger picture. Everyone has their excuses for acting as they are acting but are evading the real issues and the present day, here and now realities and reasons. And the most awful thing is that we on the outside can understand them at one level, but on a deeper level, we can see that wrong is wrong is wrong and there is no getting around that. Love thy neighbor as thyself – what part of that – do they not understand?

Two things have ruined the Democrat party, the *first* is the Supreme Court's Citizens United decision in 2010 which allowed unlimited spending on elections by corporations, nonprofit organizations, labor unions, and other associations. The *second* thing was Obama letting pharmaceutical companies set the prices for their drugs rather than letting the government negotiate the prices (this was done to get Obamacare passed). This gave pharmaceutical companies a bigger budget to corrupt the Democrats, Republicans, scientists and the universities resulting in huge profits for the drug companies. A politician who resisted taking this money was at risk of losing the election because their opponent would take the money. The good politicians that had ethics and morals were voted out of office because this "corrupting" money didn't go to them but instead went to their opponents. We need a new leader like RFK jr who will try to rectify this terrible political system that benefits the rich at the expense of the average american.

Just think of the education, housing and health care that all Americans could enjoy if you were not so busy supplying the weapons that support the despots of the world.

Americans needn't worry about their youth getting killed; you have found a way to set the world's people at each other's throats. You only represent 4% of the world's population; a population that did not elect you as their policeman.

Just as the Russians are unlikely to ever forget what you did to Kamila Valieva, a fifteen year old girl, the world is unlikely to forget your continuing atrocities and crimes against humanity. Americans, save yourselves.

My wife and I often disagree about many things but we both endorse the above statement.

It's very clear that people are upset about the situation in Gaza., as am I. President Biden is doing what he can to get aid into the people and by trying to stop support for Israel's offensive campaigns. The US has said that we will not support any further attacks on Iran. What galls me about this situation is that Trump would be 1000x worse and he would encourage the entire destruction of Gaza, with no aid. With all that said, it doesn't amount to a hill of beans if people do a 'protest vote' and put Trump back into office. Kennedy and West cannot win, so any vote for them - or not voting - just helps Trump. Yeah, I get it, President Biden isn't perfect, but he is a decent human being who is doing the best he can with a powder keg. It's not like this situation just started on October 7th. This stupid fighting has been going on for how many years? Stopping Netanyahu's murderous rampage is easier said than done. Putting someone in power here who will support him carte blanche is the definition of cutting off your nose to spite your face. The Israeli people also have to do their part by removing Netanyahu. Thinking that this situation could cause the return of Trump is just sickening. There's so much more the world will lose (including Gaza) if Trump ever returns to power. I hope President Biden does whatever it takes to turn this tide.
