I'm still not seeing why Israel is being treated as a priority over or at least equal to Ukraine. Ukraine is up against a legitimately strong adversary using human wave tactics. Israel is dropping bombs seemingly indiscriminately on mostly civilians. Ukraine is fighting for its existence. Israel is getting revenge on its much, much weaker neighbor.

If Iran and its proxies enter the war, that might change the calculations, but that hasn't happened yet.

Israel is also rich as fuck with a strong military. They do not need financial support.

Agreed. Isreal doesn't need help putting the boot on helpless children.

It's a strategic foothold in the region for the US. And "Jeebus."

[-] [email protected] 16 points 8 months ago

And the more support Israel gets to kill those civilians the more likely sympathetic regional neighbours would be inclined to join. And rightly so. It's genocide.

How about: No arms deals with any entity that indiscriminately murders innocent people, women, and children?

[-] [email protected] 16 points 8 months ago

Shit no deals with Boeing, Northrup Grumman, etc.

Oh well, I'm certain they won't bribe Congress to force their deals through..... /s

I get why - congress is increasingly useless - but there's obvious accountability problems there.

Accountability problems with funneling infinite weapons to an Apartheid settler state? No way, the US has a high degree of integrity about such things

Oh cool modern day Iran-Contra is gonna happen but with more genocide yes-honey-left

[-] [email protected] 27 points 8 months ago

Spineless, pathetic cowardice. I mean we already knew that about Democrats but this just indicts the entire administration as such. Israel makes no apologies for their slaughter, they just don't give a shit, but this means that Genocide Joe and Co. KNOW this is wrong and they'll still bend over backwards just to kill a foreigner.

Zero attempts at "harm reduction" pfff, they're actively taking steps to make the harm (literal bombing of children) worse. I live in a swing state, so when I throw my vote away I'll get to feel proud knowing it was worth even more. Glory to the martyrs and may "Israel" and her American dog be annihilated.

I don't like this trend! War movies in 10-20 years will be boring. No Rambos, no Schwarzeneggers, no Spielberg and Tom Hanks emotional patriotism! No funny casual racism, no casual homophobia, no casual misoginy... Did Mark Hamil play a terrorist in Star Trek after all? The End of an Era. We're gonna have to watch films about how a bribed White House politicant struggles to keep up with weapon manufacture demands while managing to convince his wife not to divorce him because she feels neglected since he's never at home... directed by Clint Eastwood.

That's boring. I'm out!

I'm not voting for this man a second time. No more harm reduction. I'm not degrading myself by voting for a genocide enabler.

You getting downvoted for refusing to vote for Biden for a very valid reason is proof of how broken our two-party system is. This is why every state needs to pass ranked-choice voting. Maine did it and proved it could be done, and now they get to vote for who they actually /want/ without having their vote “spoiled”.

Everyone in the US should be working to get ranked-choice voting in their state.

Genocide Joe knows how evil it is, and wants to continue arming the zionist entity. Monstrous bastard.
