    Let’s see how conservatives try to defend our spending in Israel. In what way does that money help U.S. citizens in any way? Our relationships with oil-producing countries do not benefit at all from this expense. So… Why spend this money? Go ahead, conservatives. Try to justify your religious cos-play.

    The difference between still providing Israel defensive weapons and curtailing shipments of offensive weapons needs to be explained to the public. It seems the media is not up to the job.

        Well no. There is the anti missile system. We’re still supplying bombs and artillery shells too though.

        Sure.

        Rocket motors for Iron Dome = Defensive

        GBU glide bombs = Offensive

        Not so hard, unless you really didn’t care to begin with. One can only be used to defend as anti rocket fire. The other is dropped on things you don’t like in an offensive manner.

    “What aid truck? Israel? Shoot it? No clearly not. You have video evidence? We’ll open an investigation and follow up in 5 years. By the way you are anti-Semitic and we will have the FBI open an investigation on you.”

    America denying war-crimes like they’re the CCP. And Americans defending Genocide like CCP drones. Everyone has put their chum-buckets on.
