He also called on Israel to take immediate steps “to address civilian harm, humanitarian suffering, and the safety of aid workers” and “made clear that U.S. policy with respect to Gaza will be determined by our assessment of Israel’s immediate action on these steps,” according to the White House statement.
So… Why are we sending them weapons?
Because many of the sales were agreed to before the war started and it takes congressional approval to change or cancel the deal. Our Congress is a mess right now and couldn’t pass a resolution that water is wet.
Stop lying to support a genocide
From a political/military perspective, they are by far our most reliable ally in the region. The government wants to keep them happy. If we don’t, someone else will.
So, genocide is fine as long as it ours and we must keep them happy doing it.
That’s what some people seem to think. I was only explaining the rationale; I don’t agree with it.
How useful is Israeli as an ally really? They threaten huge costly wars constantly, destabilize the region, and export right wingism. They’re at best an R&D project of the department of defense.
Damn… yo they should let someone else then!
