The Biden administration has told key lawmakers it is sending a new package of more than $1 billion in arms and ammunition to Israel, three congressional aides said Tuesday.

It’s the first arms shipment to Israel to be announced by the administration since it put another arms transfer — consisting of 3,500 bombs — on hold this month. The administration has said it paused that earlier transfer to keep Israel from using the bombs in its growing offensive in the crowded southern Gaza city of Rafah.

    Biden loyalists still believe they are the good guys. I am pretty sure, when Julius Caesar marched into Gaul, that the Roman army thought of themselves as bad guys… We know where Biden supporters stand. Did the Nazis believe they were the bad guys? Government psy-ops a success on a huge segment of the population.

        1. Why are you so sure no amount of pressure from voters will ever make Biden stop funding a genocide?

        2. Do you believe he’s like this about everything or just the genocide of brown people?

        3. Why do you support a candidate for the Dem nomination who doesn’t listen to the people he needs votes from?

          1. It might but it better happen fast if he wants to gain back any protest votes.

          2. Fuck if I know. It’s tradition at this point. How far in us president history do we have to go to find a president that didn’t kill a bunch of brown people?

          3. I don’t support biden. I’ll give him credit for the good shit he did but I’m voting for him to avoid the US becoming a theocratic fascist state… Faster than it already is at least.

            It’s not avoiding it, it’s making it happen slower.

            I think you’ve forgotten how religious Biden is and how much he’s talked about that influencing his positions.

            Why do you think he’s essentially ignored Roe V Wade being overturned? He doesn’t want abortion to be legal due to his religious views.

            He did an executive order, but it accomplished nothing. And that was just because midterms were coming.

            And the way he’s encouraging cops to go after peaceful protesters?

            He’s saying the same bullshit about protesters trump said about BLM protesters.

            Biden isn’t against fascism, he’s against the other team being in charge of it.

            That’s what happens when one side turns the fascism up to 11, and the only other option is obsessed with meeting them half way.

            The best result is slightly more than half fascist.

            And that hurts turnout, and low turnout is when the fascists win.

            The best way to stop the fascists, is to fight them, not compromise with them. That shit doesn’t work.

              Yeah, I literally acknowledged that.

              I’m voting for him to avoid the US becoming a theocratic fascist state… Faster than it already is at least.

              The best way to stop the fascists, is to fight them, not compromise with them. That shit doesn’t work.

              So what, don’t vote and do direct action instead?

                  Direct action to support a fascist takeover of America. Fuck’s sake have we learned nothing from his first 4 years? Hillary was a flaming piece of shit but if she won we would still have reproductive rights in America.

                    It’s the same as threatening a union strike to force concessions for collective bargaining.

                    The strike isn’t the goal, but being willing to do it gives you power to negotiate.

              Joe Biden isn’t religious. He is a progressive activist. He is the clown, and you are in his circus. Furthermore, he and Nancy Pelosi are globalist first, progressives first, nationalist last, Christians last.

            Oh yes, because Christianity is so evil, it proliferated compassion across the world. It ended slavery, created Just War Theory (a moral approach to war), proliferated the concept of human rights It culturally ingrained into its followers the concept of secularism, and egalitarianism. How far the democrat party has fallen. They fear the Bible and Orange Man so much, genocide is an acceptable trade-off. You must really hate Jesus.

              It is…

              it proliferated compassion across the world

              It didn’t…

              It ended slavery

              The Bible is pro slavery…

              created Just War Theory (a moral approach to war),

              Lol

              proliferated the concept of human rights

              It supports fucking slavery and says a wife is a husband property, and sexual acts unless for reproduction is a sin and should be illegal…

              I’m not going to keep going, because I haven’t hit a truthful thing you’ve said yet.

                Are you aware that Western culture is Christian culture? Was Jesus a poor man or a rich man? Was he submissive or a conquering hero? The greatness of a man is his accomplishments… is it not?

                The Bible is pro slavery…

                You must think that atheist ended slavery, that the Civil Rights Movement was atheist. Martin Luther King Jr was an atheist???

                It didn’t…

                Right, because creating the first welfare system was an act of inhumanity. Feeding and clothing the poor was an egregious act.

                The humble, meek, Christian fundamentalist who devotes his life to poverty is absolutely disgusting. For some people, poverty is disgusting.

                I had to chuckle at a left-winger the other day when he told me “communist are anti-religion,” then I prepare for it, a link that shows that Christian Communism existed long before the Bolshevik Revolution. Communism comes from the Bible. Read the Book of Acts, Acts of the Apostles, read your Bible, and learn the scripts of your program

                  The staggering irony. Find me a self proclaimed fundie Christian in government who has actually tried to help poor people.

        I will give the benefit of the doubt to Trump, since never-Trumpers rather be complicit in genocide just to keep the evil Orange Man away. I am voting for Trump just to spite Biden. That is democracy baby.
