    She’s saying she wants Israel to have interceptors so it can commit genocide but it can pay for those interceptors for now because they have some money.

      Is she saying she wants that? It doesn’t seem like she’s saying that or what the title of the post says she’s saying, although I do agree with the chipmunk commentor’s assessment of her reasoning.

        she says the iron dome is “critical” to keep “innocent civilians” safe from rocket attacks and bombardment (Why even are there rocket attacks and bombardments 🤔)

        So she clearly still is in favor of providing munitions for the iron dome (or alternatively she suddenly is in favor of rocket attacks and bombardment of “innocent” pissrahellis which I kinda doubt), she just thinks pissrahell should pay for them themselves.

        Yes. In the past she also voted for it at the height of the genocide. Now public pressure is turning against her but instead of saying “Israel is a genocidal Apartheid that shouldn’t exist and certainly not be defended by the US” she says “Israel should be defended but they can pay themselves for now”.

      Those interceptors are defensive weapons. They aren’t used to attack Gaza. They are only used to take out incoming missiles.

              Oh, I see what you’re saying. I thought you were talking about defending the F35s themselves.

              But, seriously…if you really want to stretch the logic, then you eventually end up saying that anything that defends anything in Israel is contributing to genocide. Military bases. Hospitals. Schools. Power. Water. Civilians themselves.

              At the end of the day, they’re all responsible. Right? That is the point of this post, isn’t it?
