They’re one of those “gEnOcIdEr JoE” types that don’t realize the US would’ve backed Israel regardless of who was President.
Also, the military industrial complex is fucking insane and it’s arguable that the US has invested so much into it that it would hugely impact the economy between all the programs, jobs, and money in general we (over)give to them.
Not necessarily. Reagan stopped the bombing of West Beirut with a phone call. Fucking Reagan. Maybe at the start the US would’ve backed Israel, but things getting this bad is clearly genocide Joe’s fault.
Of course I know we would have supported Israel regardless. They are an ally who was attacked. It’s the right thing to do. That isn’t to say that I don’t think there shouldn’t be restrictions that come with that aid. Limits on civilian casualties for example. That is all irrelevant to the point.
You’re right that the MIC is a huge part of the economy, so if anything supplying weapons to Israel will inject billions into the US economy. That will only help the finances of the average American.
