Nope US life is expendable.
Protesting in a war zone of a foreign country on the side that started it and knowing how Israel is executing a genocide is a whole new level of stupid.
Shooting protesters is wrong. Even if they’re protesting a genocide that you support.
I don’t support any genocide. I support a cease fire/peace treaty, something you don’t seem to understand or support, but narrative amirite?

As long as we keep selling Netanyahu weapons, he will continue committing genocide. He’ll keep stringing us along by making positive cooing noises about wanting peace, and then yank the football away at the last moment.
You want to keep pursuing something that you know will never work. Netanyahu isn’t interested in peace. He’s interested in continuing the genocide that keeps him in power.
You keep using this “we” as if you’re in America, which you’re not, so there is no we. Drop the bullshit and go away.

Oh but you never said I was a foreign agent. Liar.
Removed, internet slap fighting.

Show me where I said that. I can do this for days, it’s more entertaining than rest of lemmy.
Removed, internet slap fighting.
Oh fuck yeah. They’ve killed TWO of ours now!? We’ll suck their dick harder!
“Well don’t stand in the genocide zone!”
Why start now?

Israel killed her 21 years ago.
All part of Israeli policy of bulldozing the homes of people who dare resist them.

I will never forget Rachel Corrie.
Do you know how many Americans the US government kills in the US? Why would they give a shit about one more far away?
Lol.
I think people forget that cops are part of the government and they definitely kill innocent people.

As the Zionist elite are the real owners of America, I think nothing will happen.
Just say Jews. You mean Jews.
Globalists, Zionist elite, international cabal…just say Jews.
Your dog whistles are heard loud and clear on the internet these days.
We really need to Make Nazis Afraid Again
Not all Jews are Zionists as not all Zionists are Jews, there are plenty of christian nationalists who are Zionists.
Anti-zionism isn’t the same as anti-Semitism.
You’re the anti-semite here, you’re the one mixing up Jews with a genocidal terrorist group.
Americans are upset, just politicians are afraid to lose their annual bribes if they talk outside of church.
The other side gives bribes too. The only difference is that Israel has a stronger lobby and a bigger pot to finance their payoffs.
This will never end until we get the money out of politics.
Wait, what’s the other side that pays folks to free Palestine? Honest question, because if they exist, they sure are doing a shit job.
If by respond you mean send even more bombs and weapons, then yes.
Um, this clearly falls under the US policy regarding its citizens vis a vis ‘play stupid games, win stupid prizes’.
Does that include Israeli Americans? Because I don’t think it does.
Like going to a concert near the border of Gaza and presidents ignoring intel briefings. Stupid games, stupid prizes.
Or living in a country where you’re clearly not wanted.
Would you be saying the same thing if the insurrectionists were mowed down by the national guard on Jan 6?
Ashli Babbitt got what she had coming. Play stupid games win stupid prizes, right?
Or is that different somehow because she was a righty?
You idiots are going to have to FAFO the hard way. Go ahead and try again when Trump loses, we have a president that will deploy the national guard and open fire on you terrorists
🤨
That policy doesn’t seem to apply to people living in Russia, or even travelling to North Korea.
Really? Americans have gone to Russia or NK to protest in front of their soldiers and didn’t win a stupid prize?
Maybe stay the fuck out of the West Bank?
During the BLM protests, whenever a piece of shit would drive through a group of protesters, white nationalists would all be like “stay out of the street and you won’t get hit lol.”
This happened even when the protesters were crossing with the light at a crosswalk.
You remind me of them.
Yeah definitely the same thing.
Your reaction is certainly reminiscent.
Why?
Because there’s a war going on?
that’s not a very helpful suggestion considering that a good number of people are there specifically because there is a war going on.
You know theres no Hamas in the west bank right? If theres any kind of ‘war’ going on in the west bank its the IDF vs civilians, but hey that’s a tale as old as time isn’t it?
What? Are you saying non-combatants are in danger from Israeli attacks?
* shocked Pikachu *
I wonder Ozma, what would you have the US do?
(This is for OP, others need not reply)
Enough is enough. Stop all US aid to Israel, stop enabling the genocide. Immediately.
Yσɠƚԋσʂ, didn’t think I’d see you outside .ml.
I’m confused, why do you think “stop providing aid to assist in genocide” is the take of a tanky?
It’s commonly known it’s his alt, is that your confusion?
Democrats are limp wristed when it comes to Israel. Expect more death, they won’t raise a finger to stop it. Republicans aren’t any better.
Republicans are far, far worse… Why are you framing it this way? This is just intellectual dishonesty.
Both sides huh? Last I heard the Democrats are negotiating a peace treaty and the Republikkklowns are writing finish them on the bombs.
What’s your angle?
Amazing how that it’s already done peace deal still isn’t done. Almost like dems and bibi don’t care about getting it done
I love your blaming the dems as the world sits by. It’s wild how the dems are more powerful than world combined. Weird almost.
The rest of the world combined isn’t funneling billions of dollars worth of weapons into the conflict.
The 10 year weapons deal signed in 2016? You do you, I’ll blame Israel for the genocide and the rest of the world that isn’t pushing for a peace treaty like the US currently is.
I have no idea why you keep bringing up that particular deal. It’s not like it’s the only or even last deal the US has signed.
The US hasn’t stopped. The US went out of its way to ensure Israel that there wouldn’t even be any delays in shipments.
The US is blatantly enabling genocide and it’s currently headed by the Biden administration.
I’ll lay out for you since you seem to be struggling, that or you have some form of narrative you’re trying to push, but you wouldn’t be doing that right?
Israel is committing a genocide that the US is trying to get a cease fire/peace treaty for. That’s more than the rest of world but you don’t care because??? Narrative? Without support to Israel, Iran would run roughshot through the middle east killing more people and causing bigger problems. That’s why the world hasn’t stepped in and stomped Israel. It’s like the world is playing chess and you’re playing tic tac toe.
Save your bullshit response. There’s nothing else to be said.
The 10 year weapons deal signed in 2016?
The Leahy Law prohibits selling weapons for genocide. Keep ignoring this because it’s something you don’t want to hear and call me a foreign shill some more. Lying in support of genocide is all centrists do.
10 U.S. Code 2249 section b:
Exception.—The prohibition in subsection (a)(1) shall not apply if the Secretary of Defense, after consultation with the Secretary of State, determines that the government of such country has taken all necessary corrective steps, or if the equipment or other assistance is necessary to assist in disaster relief operations or other humanitarian or national security emergencies.
I don’t have a degree in political science, and I’m not a lawyer but there’s the answer to your Leahy Law, but the last three words should sum it up. It also is talking about aid and not an existing contract. The more you know right?
You keep saying I support genocide, this is false and an outright lie. I’ve said over and over I do not support a genocide, not the one in Israel, China, or Ukraine. You’ve only mentioned Israel and you blame the US. What I find the most odd is this talk has been going on for a while. “Genocide Joe” that was the talking point, all you saw, everywhere. Genocide Joe. Then, Joe Biden drops out and SILENCE. No more talk of genocide for days. Nothing. Now everyone got their bearings straight and here we are again with all the “people” talking about the US and the dems fault for the genocide.
Why was there a break when Joe Biden dropped out? A real head scratcher isn’t it?
Let me get this straight. Liberals are now, unironically, using international law as a defense for being the primary arms supplier of a literal genocide. And that’s supposed to be an excuse to vote Blue MAGA.
Lmao
Lmao you’re pretty funny. Oh wait .ml ROFLMAO
Almost like the world doesn’t want to also anger the USA
So now it’s the USA and not just the all powerful dems? Sorry, it’s hard to follow when your goal posts are mounted to a Bugatti.
The current president of the USA is a Democrat.
Democrats used to say, “The buck stops here.”
Wtf are on about?
The US has presented 3 separate peace deals that everyone has accepted but Netanyahu has sabotaged at the last minute. That is not the fault of “the Dems”.
At the same time, Republicans have yet to do anything but cheer on the genocide in Gaza and the violence in the West Bank.
Why would Israel do anything if they can keep going and have no consequences?
Notice how many othet administrations, including Republicans, have managed to reign in Israel. Yet all this one does is well let me wag my fingers harder
Right, it’s everyone else’s fault but Netanyahu’s
Good thing we gave him multi standing ovations
speak for yourself. i certainly didn’t.
The US has presented 3 separate peace deals that everyone has accepted but Netanyahu has sabotaged at the last minute.
Because Netanyahu knows he’ll keep getting his genocidin’ weapons no matter what he does.
There are Republicans in Congress voting to authorize those packages, too.
And still no Republicans calling for peace or trying to get Netanyahu to accept the terms of the peace deals, nor Republicans decrying the genocide in Gaza or the West Bank…
Congratulations on having two parties that vote for the policies you support. Not getting how that is some sort of comeback to my assertion that Netanyahu is getting the weapons no matter what he does.
Ah, so now it’s my fault, too, eh? Lmao
How much of that is from the 10 year weapons contract signed in 2016?
How does that exempt us from the Leahy Law?
You know the deal. You know what’s happening, I asked what’s your angle and you seem to refuse to answer that. I’ll give you a quick ELI5, Iran will run roughshot over the middle east if there isn’t someone there to keep them inline. Israel is that someone. If you don’t see that, you’re either wearing blinders, or you’re a bad actor.
The lobbyists getting fat and rich off their layouts from weapons manufacturers will ensure it never gets done. Who do you think Israel is getting all their guns and drones and missiles from? Guess what? It’s the same place Hamas gets theirs from. The only difference between them is the number of bank accounts and off-the-books deals on the way there.
Those bombs will keep flowing to both sides as long as money keeps flowing back. Ideology has nothing to do with it. It’s all about the cash.
The U.S. has responded. That IS the problem.
Respond with more money
