I expected this but now that it happened I realize this is western democracy working exactly as intended. I haven’t really gotten involved in local politics until recently but now I realize how little our vote counts for in the west, especially the US. The chambers were filled with ceasefire supporters. Hell a lot of liberals support it at this point. But the Zionist money must be so good for these city councillors and 99% of US politicians. Of course the pro “Israel” lobby were there but they were completely outnumbered by us. Yet there was only 1 out of 6 that voted YES to a ceasefiee. I feel an immense amount of shame for my city as if there wasn’t enough of that.
Thanks. Appreciate the support. We will keep fighting regardless of the motion and nothing will stop us from having our voices heard.
