    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.

            If you want to argue against things I haven’t said, I guess it’s a lot easier than arguing against things I have said. I’ll leave you and the straw caricature you’ve constructed of me to talk things out.

          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.

            Israel has nuclear weapons and can defend themselves just fine with the conventional weapons they already possess. They do not need our assistance in committing genocide.

            I’ll repeat the question you completely ignored in favor condescension and flimsy excuses for genocide:

            How does that exempt us from the Leahy Law?

                  What? That’s a lot of words for “us”. I’ll ask you again since you like to dodge questions, what’s your angle?

                    I don’t want the United States to ignore the Leahy Law in order to sell weapons that Netanyahu will use to commit genocide.
