Wait, why haven’t we done this with Ukraine? Israel can fend for itself and we really shouldn’t be helping them more than we already are.

Russia has nukes.
The Palestinians do not.
We probably should help them half as much as we are.
They don't need any help, it's laughable to even call it a war. Israel could level all of gaza in a heartbeat
The fuck is wrong with people. They're over there committing what amounts to genocide, and we just shrug and selling them more weapons?
It's called capitalism, look it up
Oh heavens thank you, I couldn't possibly have known that if you didn't respond with a snarky comment.
I think they may have been referencing this meme, but it didn't land and wasn't a great joke tbh.

Ah, yeah, that makes more sense.
Biden is a good guy, but damn if he isn't stuck in the past. Every decision he makes seems like it would've made sense if it was still 1998. This is something Clinton probably would've done and everyone would've loved him for it, but the world has moved on, and people now understand the situation there is not as black and white as they thought.
You have a weird definition of a good guy.
Good guys don't support genocide. Good guys don't strip away pandemic protections. Good guys don't allow health insurance to be stripped away from millions of people.
I must admit, I don't get why Biden would go so wholeheartedly pro Israel here. I get that the US has been allies with Israel for decades, and we would probably continue that. But his support goes further, and gets out of balance in terms of public perception of Israel (which does have broad public support), and a clear genocide of Palestinians in Gaza which also has broad public recognition. He probably would have been better to try to thread the needle between the two.
Doing the opposite of what we should be doing is supposed to be the Republicans' job.
Wow! That's crazy!
You mean that there were restrictions on weapons we went to Israel?
Biden is a genocidal sack of shit.
This is about allowing Israel to access all weapons in the US stockpile in Israel, not ALL U.S. weapons in general as title implies.
Well yeah, congress fills their war coffers almost infinitely, until that stops it may as well be the same thing.
Screw the FTSE100, invest in weapons!!
