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
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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
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.
Wtf are on about?
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.

“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.
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.
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.
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?
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.
Maybe stay the fuck out of the West Bank?
What? Are you saying non-combatants are in danger from Israeli attacks?
* shocked Pikachu *
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?
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.
Americans are upset, just politicians are afraid to lose their annual bribes if they talk outside of church.
Will the US respond? Yes! By reimbursing the ammunition used
Funny that just last week an American was shot in the head, executed by Hamas, and there wasn’t an Intercept article mentioning it. Maybe it’s just not fashionable to be outraged about it, and it wouldn’t get enough clicks.
“Why don’t you ever talk about the deaths centrists aren’t happy about?!”
I would hope that if you are any kind of US citizen, you would not be happy about it either. There are forest and trees, but you only see one.
I’m not. I’m also not cynically using it to whatabout in favor of a genocidal apartheid state like you’re doing.
All of a sudden by questioning the Intercept I’m support ING some state? That line of logic just doesn’t exist.
Then why whatabout?
I was making mention of publishing one story and ignoring another. The Interce0t only wants to trigger you, and it looks like they were successful
You were whining that the intercept isn’t running articles you would prefer to see and instead running articles you don’t want anyone to ever know about.
We only fund one of these warring terrorist groups. Do not see that difference?
Our taxes paid for the killing of a US citizen.
So the Intercept is triggering you with this death for a purpose of government funding, while ignoring the other? IDK which is worse and it is what I said originally. Shame these young people died, but in one case we know what happened, but in this case we don’t.
so you dont see the difference between us killing one of our own and someone else doing it?
Both are dead.
We didn’t kill anyone. We don’t know the facts, that’s why the US State Department is investigating.
US State Department is
investigatingwaiting for idf to investigate.It’s almost been a year of Israel indiscriminately killing in the area and the state department still refuses to do an investigation. Still waiting for Israel to investigate themselves.
But yeah sure. We’re totally gonna do something other than fund and supply weapons
So the Intercept is triggering you with this death
Just ignore it if it makes Netanyahu look bad!
Bibi is an asshole
Is that why you’re whatabouting for him?
Are you actually claiming there was no media coverage of the murdered hostages?
There is a very good argument that the role of non mainstream news sources, like the Intercept, it to shed light on the news that mainstream media doesn’t raise.
If the CNN was blasting 24 hours the news about this American being shot, I’m pretty sure the Intercept would not bother either.
Just an observation on the nature of media and events. The Intercept is hardly mainstream. Instead of reporting facts it produces outrage purposed dribble, and this is a good example. In this case, those facts are not determined, and the US State Department is seeking them. That’s the way CNN reported it anyway. Should this turn into an Ashli Babbitt situation, the Intercept will not report it and it will not be here because it won’t suit the fashionable narrative.
On a side note, I wonder what this story has to do with US Politics. Although I do see a mod in the string who should be able to explain that, but probably won’t
People expect terrorists to shoot innocent people in the head. They don’t accept it when people claiming to fight terrorists shoot innocent people in the head.
You couch this story like you know what happened. You don’t
BTW. What does this story have to do with US politics?
The lack of a response is very much US Politics.
My first reaction to that is something about the output of male cows
See it’s shit like this that shows you aren’t ever arguing in good faith
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.
Oh fuck yeah. They’ve killed TWO of ours now!? We’ll suck their dick harder!
