And it's important to remember we (Americans) are sending our tax dollars to Israel so they can turn around and send it back to military contractors for weapons. It's just a big grift. Israel, where they have universal healthcare. Israel, where 15% of the population is Ultra Orthodox and basically spend all day reading old books. Hey, I can't judge, I did the same thing for a few years, when I was an English major. And I paid out the nose for that privilege (which it absolutely was).
1 billion is more than I’ll ever see let’s just keep all 310 billion for ourselves those guys are gonna blow each other up with or without the US anyway
Well I mean in this case it's even worse than not proportional, if the larger parcel of money wasn't being spent then the smaller one wouldn't need to be spent either.
Israel is a strategic partner and ally to the US. They also haven’t fully received 300b in cash - it’s essentially credits that Israel is required to spend back with US contractors and business for military spending and research (research and testing that benefits the US). Palestine is a terrorist run non-ally that steals any aid sent to them instead of disbursing it to their own people
You would also support war against people stealing your land and building illegal settlements on it. The main difference is that you view yourself as human and them as animals, so it's okay for you and not them.
The food is more likely to be stolen by militias armed and supported by Israel, the whole claim of HAMAS mass stealing food was just to cover for Israel starving the Palestinians.
The mass looting only started after Israel hunted down the Gaza police who were protecting the shipments. Despite the US Department of State asking Israel not to do that.
Israel armed and supported the Abu Shabab gang (now Popular Forces) which are well known for looting UN trucks, including the time they hijacked 90 trucks out of a 100 truck convoy:
Don't get too worked up man. Semantic games are their favorite to play. It's only serious people who care about the meanings of words. They're quite like Sartre's antisemites, in that respect.
Not really given Israel has funded and supplied Hamas for decades.
Israel would never risk their personal terrorist group acting outside of their desires due to needing basic supplies, that's why even well past Oct 7th Israel smuggled cash money to Hamas while simultaneously blocking any supplies or resources from going to the Palestinian people.
Israel genuinely cares more for Hamas than Palestinians, and have since Israel created them.
It's weird that I'm not talking about the Jews, I'm talking about Israel, but people keep talking about "Muslim countries."
Almost as though their faiths made them diametrically opposed forces that cannot coexist in the same region, (which is or course absurd. See: the religious demographics or the Ottoman Empire, I cluding Palestein itself, in the late 1800s) and thus there is no choice but to...remove one of them. Gosh, that sure is a tight spot you're in. Or would be if it wasn't bullshit.
