The United States has announced the approval of the sale of more than $7.4bn in bombs, missiles and related equipment to Israel, which has used American-made weapons to devastating effect during the war in Gaza.
The state department has signed off on the sale of $6.75bn in bombs, guidance kits and fuses, in addition to $660m in Hellfire missiles, according to the US Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA).
The proposed sale of the bombs “improves Israel’s capability to meet current and future threats, strengthen its homeland defense, and serves as a deterrent to regional threats”, the DSCA said in a statement.
None of the votes during this past election would have helped Palestine. That’s the point. You gotta think long term. Dems and Reps suck.
Our two party, single vote system isn’t working for the people and they want you to believe it is. Control your politicians. Don’t let them control you.
For the US, sure.
Letting in the Tangerine Mussolini means there won’t be a Palestine by the end of his term.
With the Democrats under the control of the DNC neither. Remember how the US built an “aid pier” for hundreds of millions that never delivered aid, but instead a beachhead for an Israeli assault disguised as humanitarian aid?
Now with Trump people are forced to confront the empire and maybe resist it from within, which also helps those outside of it. In the same wake other countries like in Europe will have to confront the fact that the US was never their friend, but just gave more considerations to the appearance of mutual respect and sovereignity on the outside.
The US empire has made it clear under Biden already, that there will be no peace in the Middle East, as long as the empire can prevent it. The only route to peace is dismantling the empire and replacing it with a normal country.
Neither of those things will happen, the US will turn into an autocratic state and Palestine will be erased. Then they will expand to Greater Israel with US troops.
Ah the iron convictions of those who participate in a democratic society.
I am an anarchist and have only voted once for secession. I would’ve voted against Trump if I were American. What is your point though?
The fall of the American federal government to fascism is not as foregone a conclusion as it is being made out to be.
The same factions that didn’t want to change the incumbent policy are the same that are accepting the fascist movement without resistance.
Seems it’s already fallen to me. I don’t see much short of a revolution reversing it and the libs certainly aren’t going to do that. AuthLeft are tiny and as far gone as MAGA on certain topics. LibRight are on AuthRight’s side. And there’s like 10 LibLefts.

Ah yes, the same type of alarmist rhetoric the dems were pushing during the campaign. If the stakes were really this high, why did democrats sit on their asses for 4 years while Trump gained power? Why was their legal battle against Trump the most limp-dicked effort we’ve seen? Most importantly, why did Biden peacefully transfer power to Trump if the stakes were truly so high? This is one of the funniest liberal thought processes to me: the idea that it’s better to sacrifice your constitution, country, and democratic process instead of sacrificing “civility”, “decorum”, and “precedent”. Yall would rather embrace fascism with open arms than use the most basic tools at your disposal: stacking courts, appointing judges, using executive orders, etc… you know, all the strategies Republicans have mastered these past few years and have shown are extremely effective.
At the end of the day, the Democratic party’s selling point was “harm reduction”, but that was generous at best. It has become clear that the democrats simply slowed down the rate at which things were getting worse, and when the position of the party becomes “slow down genocide” as opposed to “stop genocide”, I think it’s perfectly fair for people to draw a red line. The only logical conclusion to this line of thinking is reaching a point, 20 years from now, when the choice is between a Democrat who wants 9 genocides and a republican who wants 10.

So the dems are dumb for not fighting fascism with fascism? You can’t save democracy by destroying it. That “ends justify the means” thinking is why the republican party ended up this way. Why would republicans in congress want to disenfranchise themselves by installing a dictator? They’re just morons grasping for conspiracy theories to win elections, without thinking about the long term consequences. Maybe I’m naive, but save for the few actual lunatics (like MTG), I’m sure many republicans would turn on Trump the instant they felt they could get away with it, especially now
