Well, if it's for conquering it...
No
Let's arm the Palestinians instead. Or, we could send intentionally defective weapons to Israel. Israel's genocide has to stop
China, Iran and Russia are way ahead of you in arming Palestinians.
I think the Palestinians people are mostly concerned about the deaths of, no one at all is arming. They're just starving to death, unarmed, in quiet desperation, in their homes or in the places they went to when their homes were destroyed.
I don't support weapons.
No.
Yes, but only if we can send negative weapons
(/s)
Yes
Out of curiosity who did you vote for in the 2020 primaries?
Would have voted for Biden, this year I'll be voting for Biden.
To clarify, in the 2020 primaries you would have voted for Biden over Bernie, Warren, Pete and everybody else who was running?
My first choice would have been Bernie, but it would be close.
No. They have a lot already.
No.
Israel currently has enough weapons stockpiled that they could continue the genocide for several months before they'd need to consider changing tactics. I don't see what use sending them additional weapons/munitions does - just stick it in a warehouse until they need it next winter? It's just a visible show of support right now.
Cut off that support. Let Israel swing in the wind without unconditional support and maybe they'll finally start pulling back from all-out extermination. Make sure any future shipments are bound with enforceable limits on their use, like the US has on almost every other arms shipment it makes. And take whatever we were going to send to Israel for the next six months, and send it to Ukraine, which actually is fighting a war for it's very survival against a much larger adversary.
Like, on a pallet, or high speed with the arming pins removed?
No.
No
Not unless they were getting Ukraine’d by Egypt/Jordan/Lebanon/Syria. Since they’re not, they can make do imho.
What’s the context here? As aid, or as an attack? Need to know before answering.
Yoav Gallant: When can we expect the next tranche of aid to arrive? You've been totally unreliable ever since we threw chocolate ice cream in the face of your Secretary of State
US Ambassador: Oh, you'll know when it gets here, trust me
