      Yes. They’re currently engaged in massive war crimes, including the use of starvation as a weapon as identified by the US State Department. They are absolutely ineligible for military aid.

      But they aren’t actually defenseless. They still have the most sophisticated military in the region.

          Yes, withholding weapons from people murdering civilians is directly analogous to murdering civilians yourself.

          Perfect logic. Unassailable.

              FFS thinking that Israel is commuting Genocide and that you’d rather not fund that sn’t the same thing at all as condoning Hamas’s Oct attack. You are making the most ridiculous false equivalence

                  How do I want to terrorize innocent people? I think you should give up talking to people if you’re so incapable of listening

                    Ever been under a missile attack? If you’re lucky you get a warning. Then you move your family to your homes safest place and wait. You either hear a boom or you don’t. And if you do, you tell your family to wait because there might be another one. It’s terrifying. Of course, it’s more frightening when you don’t get a warning and your neighbors house just blows up.

      Yes, exactly. Support for their defense is the same as support for their offense from a simple economic point of view. Your logic stops working when trying to wipe a small country’s worth of people out.

      There’s a BIG difference between defense system (iron dome) and offensive system (MOABs).
