I thought they were running out of bombs for their own “war”?
You don’t need guidance systems when you’re dropping munitions indiscriminately on women and children.
TBF when the Americans use guided munitions, they tend to drop them on an awful lot of innocents.
Can’t we just fucking send them trump? Fuck APAIC and fuck Israel. Nutsacks.
I can’t imagine how it must feel to be a Palestinian-American refugee in the US.
They’re literally funding the genocide of their own family by paying taxes (as are the rest of US)
This is assuming they’re not already all rounded up by ICE.
Israel was founded by USA and UK after WW2 for a reason.
Since founding, the USA has always funded their military. Not only did you buy the bombs, tanks, and so on, your parents did too, and your grandparents, and your great grandparents (if you are American, anyway). There’s a reason that every President I know of has flown out to Israel and visited the Prayer Wall and worn the little hat. It’s considered vital to our strategic interests in the area (that’s not my assessment).
… and not only Israel! If memory serves, Saudi Arabia and Egypt have also received a lot of military aid.
… and money! So much money is funneled to ME, Jordan, Lebanon, Libya, Iraq, and more.
There are few things in life that you can count on, and that’s death, taxes, and US military aid to Israel.
This is one thing that bOtH pArTiEs agree on, there’s no “anti-Israel” voting option.
You pay for their bombs. The money they save allows them to have socialized healthcare.
You bust your ass to keep your family with healthcare … and your government helps another country provide THEIR citizens healthcare.
Let that shit sink in.
Yep. This is the argument to make to Republicans. We pay for socialized healthcare for Israel. Ask them to explain why we can justify that while also making cuts to other international healthcare initiatives and denying healthcare to Americans.
nooo my $5000!
trump doesn’t have any money. his government is $40T in debt.
It’s just imaginary numbers. They can print some paper or add some numbers on a computer if the extremely privileged are at all threatened.
You realize that that debt is owned by rich people including him, right?
He has loads of money, and the taxpayers are giving it to him and his family long after he dies.
I doubt Trump personally holds any significant amount of bonds
Oh, so THAT’S where our DOGE checks are going!
If it makes you feel any better, I hear they’re putting Charlie Kirks face on all the warheads.
They got his neck wrong.
I’ve always appreciated RS for providing actual leftist reporting AKA, truthful coverage of politics.
That’s a lot of food stamps to cut so bibi the nazi can keep his genocide running.
Food stamps for the needy? Bad!
Bomb stamps for a genocidal regime? Good?
If welfare queens exist, then Israel is the ultimate welfare queen. Just sucking up money and never becoming a productive member of the world.
I’d argue they’re welfare fraudsters rather than welfare queens. They’ve got tons of money, most of the tech industry is connected to Israeli engineering. They’re just also constantly getting even more money so they don’t need to spend as much of their own money. Always best to waste someone else’s money.
I’d argue they’re welfare fraudsters rather than welfare queens.
“Welfare fraudster” is exactly what “welfare queen” means, and is why the term is so offensive.
It’s not even money they are cutting from social programs, it’s all borrowed. The ruling class are going for broke, we will be at 50 trillion debt by 2028 easy. I bet even more, all they need is a national emergency.
It’s time for the Final Solution. Then Trump and Kushner can finally develop the Jewish Dubai out of the ruins. That’s what he’s getting in exchange for full collaboration.
Rollingstone doing the Lord’s work with this one.
So Israel’s genocidal rampage is more important than winning in Iran, and all the US military over there are sacrificing their lives for no (useful) reason. I don’t get why the right-wingers aren’t more incensed over this crap.
winning in Iran,
lol. Even if USA “wins”, the planet loses as usual. But realistically there’s no end to this imperial terror attack. It’s been happening for centuries.
It’s a death cult.
because christian fascism
It’s the mental illness epidemic of fascism
Why not both? Is there even a difference?
Once someone accepts hatred into their heart, they’re easy to control, and most of these people have had 20 years of Islamophobia mainlined 24/7.
They don’t see humans anymore because their brain shuts off at “Muslim”.
And it’s the exact same playbook used by every fascist. Give them someone to hate, and they’ll let you do basically anything as long as you actively hurt the people you told them to hate.
So Israel’s genocidal rampage is more important than winning in Iran
No, duh! They already won in Iran. Haven’t you heard Dear Leader? Iran’s utterly destroyed and the Strait is open! If you have high gas prices is because that damned Zelensky is bombing poor Russia’s oil infrastructure!
Cult + they will never be informed of this on fox and/or be told this is a great thing for national security
Your Medicaid and SNAP benefits hard at work!
I’m sending my health care! Hopefully I can die quickly and quietly to push that line just a bit higher for corporate overlords. Hail corporate!
I thought we needed those bombs? Didn’t Biden cause the problem by giving away all our precious bombs to Ukraine, not TACO with his Iran war? So I guess the shortage must be over if we have enough to give to Israel. Such a relief to know we are safe again.
Different bombs. These are dumb bombs, US can’t get close enough to Iran to use these. They tried already and lost aircraft. So they have to use guided bombs and missiles.
Israels genocide is uncontested, so they have no issues dropping dumb bombs.
It was my understanding most of it was WWII surplus.
WWII surplus would have been used in Korea or the Vietnam war I would assume
The WWII surplus basically doesn’t exist outside museums. The vast majority would have been used (especially in training) or updated. Even just chemical instability and environmental degradation would have made anything too dangerous to really leave in an arsenal.
I thought if we didn’t vote Harris this genocide would stop.
They’re trying to stop it… with lots of bombs so there’s no one left to kill
I thought if
wethey didn’tvotenominate Harris this genocide would stop.FTFY.
Idk guise. Maybe the DNC is to blame for pushing unpopular candidates to representation. Idk. Something something two parties something constitution…
I was told if I voted for her we’d be in a war with Iran by now. The person that told me that has since “stopped caring” about politics
I was told the genocide would be good if it was a Dem doing it!
Strawman.
No one said this, ever!
No shit, lmao, it’s called hyperbole.
The you’re stupider than we gave you credit for, lol.
Please refrain from Ad Hominem attacks.
It’s hard when it comes to such colossal idiocy.
They were both not going to do anything about it. Trump is way worse though.
Are you talking about Kamala “my platform is whatever the party tells me it is” Harris? She’s an opportunist asshole who’ll say whatever she thinks will further her political career. This Harris?
This is what liberals want.
Still better than a pedophile rapist who is robbing you blind hut I guess that is just what you’re in to
Could we raise our standards, please?
You can start with not voting for a fraudulent pedophile maybe
As an outsider, the leader that collapses the US the fastest is the best choice, so good job!
Bad bot.
Do you think someone licking AIPAC’s ass would not support the genocide or are you identifying yourself as a bad hasbara bot?
I think you mean my-platform-is-whatever-the-party-tells-me-it-is Harris.
You’re welcome.
I don’t remember Harris promising to not send billions to Israel either
A big problem with democracy is you have to assume people pay attention and are intelligent.
She also said she wouldn’t do anything differently than Biden. Many times.
And Trump promised to restore peace in the Middle East.
You’re ALSO assuming that the people who who made that argument were doing so in good faith and ACTUALLY give a fuck about Gaza, and not trolls whose entire MO is to watch the world burn - a proposition I think you’re giving them WAY too much credit with.
I asked about ending all aids and weapons to israel. Your article do not mention anything about that
I wish Harris was president right now.
Same. It would have exposed people like you. I also hope the dems will wins the midterm and next presidential election to expose how they was never against ending the war of aggression on Iran
I don’t know who is paying you, but the war in Iran MIGHT have happened under Harris, but we know it DID happen under Trump, against the VEHEMENT opposition of EVERY SINGLE PERSON who would still be in power if he’d lost, Gaza is still fucked and EVERYBODY else is doing poorly on every measure too now. Fuck talking about the US - worldwide:
The environment is fucked, 50 degree summers are a foregone conclusion now, left-wing parties are being stomped across countries where they used to be either dominant or competitive, mass extinction and the most brutal El Nino in recorded history are about to steamroll the planet unimpeded, money that used to be used to protect the vulnerable in countries that were damaged by imperialism is instead being used to build useless monuments to nothing, government surveillance is on the rise in EVERY country, human rights are collapsing in most…
Even if you’re an ignorant as fuck tankie, even the “socialist countries fighting the imperialist US” are doing demonstrably worse than they used to be, with the possible lone exception of North Korea, so whatever point you think you’re making is laughable.
The war against Iran definitely wouldn’t have happened under her. This is entirely about Trump being easily fooled by Nethanyahu and him really really wanting to be a wartime president. It is a very personal war and also why it is extra stupid.
Even Bush jr. who started wars left and right was not so stupid as to start one with Iran.
Not a single word about the real victims of the war of aggression, theeht but Iranians civilians. You do not give a damn about the war you just use it for your shitty political game
Don’t put words in my mouth
People who are against genocides like the one in Palestine by Israel, the one in Ukraine by Russia and China’s genocide of the Uyghurs?
No anti genocide in Gaza would defend Kamala and act like she would save Palestinians similar to no trump defender are opposing genocide in Gaza
