      Wrong on both accounts, since the entire world including Biden KNOWS what those weapons are going to be used for beforehand.

      He’s not sending bombs and missile guiding systems for self defense. He’s sending them to be used to commit genocide and he knows it.

          I understand just fine that the US diplomatic and political stance is that Israel is exempt from all rules.

          That doesn’t erase the genocide or the US complicity in It though, and if you think it does, YOU are the one who needs to reacquaint yourself with reality outside of the Zionist kayfabe before "engaging in discussions where the topic addresses these things“.

          Also, could you possibly be any more arrogantly condescending? Please cut that shit out, lest you appear to suffer from a bad case of the Dunning Kruger effect.

              I know full well how politics work.

              Dissent is not ignorance and you’re not smart for pretending you know better for credulously believing the deceptive establishment narrative.

              Please stop pretending that your “that’s just how it is” attitude is anything but defeatism if not outright bootlicking.

              To accept the toxic status quo as inevitable does not make you more knowledgeable and trying to gatekeep those who disagree makes you look foolish to put it mildly.

                  No, you don’t. And that is evident in every one of your arguments on the subject. And not only do you lack the understanding it takes to discuss the topic

                  Patently false. Not to mention EXTREMELY condescending.

                  you’re seemingly incapable of doing it without insulting people.

                  Says the person falsely accusing me of profound ignorance. If that’s not insulting, nothing is.

                  This is the last time I will request that you further your education on politics- specifically, the trade agreements and relations between the US, and Israel- and why it would be illegal to completely cut them off.

                  And this is possibly the last time I reiterate the fact that being ideologically opposed to the corrupt status quo and the jingoistic laws that protect it does NOT equal ignorance about any of it.

                  Please don’t respond before you have educated yourself on these matters

                  Please don’t continue being an arrogant blowhard who can’t tell the difference between disagreement and ignorance.

                  I know you think (or pretend to think) that trying to silence me would heighten the discourse, but in reality it’s blatant attempted censorship based in authoritarian gaslighting and only serves to narrow the conversation to one where no opinion other than your own is allowed.

                  With all due respect, which is none, FUCK that!

                  As for the link you added after I replied, that’s straight up apologia from the slavishly pro-establishment and pro-Biden outlet Politico and as such not a good source of information.

                  Also, it’s a “what’s happening right now” article that’s several months out of date.

                  Do better or stop trying.
