    Cutting funding does more to bring about a seize fire than just asking nicely

      We shouldn’t ask nicely.

      How’s a no-fly zone sound? Cuz if South Africa succeeds in it’s case against Israel, the UN charter compels member states (including the US) to take action to prevent genocide.

      Defunding Israel is a good start, though.

      Israel can continue the offensive with or without US support, that are already well equipped and can produce their own ammunition. I don’t understand why they are portrayed as some poor nation. They said themselves that they will continue the offensive with or without help.

        So fucking let them go at it alone. It’s not 1948, nor 1967, America shouldn’t be supporting this militarily, nor provide political immunity at the UN via UNSC veto - actual or threatened

        I’m tired of seeing US supplied ordinance given to unreliable actors, and then any criticism roundly rejected

          The US is in this specific conflict to make their cut of the warbucks and maintain diplomatic ties, not to provide critical aid and support. That and provide a disincentive for anyone else to step in or protest.
