davel@lemmy.mlto politics @lemmy.world•Trump tells Israel to ‘finish the job’ against Hamas weeks after suggesting ceasefire deal in sight | CNN PoliticsEnglish1·16 hours agoAlmost the opposite happened. How did this even get upvoted?

Of course the genocide is bipartisan so the ceasefire was never going to last.
What do you think Israel would do if iron dome was taken away?
I don’t have a crystal ball, but they might reconsider what they’re currently doing if they were less invincible.
It would be like cornering an angry dog.
Israel has had the “dog” cornered for generations. Before that the “dog” was living its life, unperturbed by settler-colonial invaders.
And how does one single vote on an amendment that lost by somewhere around 400 votes make the difference?
This is a dodge. You still haven’t answered the question. Why did she vote against an amendment for not arming Israel?
Do you think about any of this with your mind or do you just react on impulse and emotion like an animal?
Yes, I am a hysterical genocide condemner and you are a rational genocide apologizer.
What does the “defensive” Iron Dome do? It helps Palestinian genocide and illegal, unprovoked attacks on Iran to continue unimpeded. Israel does not have the right to defend itself while committing these acts.
Then why did she vote to keep the arming of Israel on the bill? Where’s the consistency in that?
The votes speak for themselves. Everyone knows that the yearly defense budget bill gets passed every year without exception.
She knew the bill would ultimately pass regardless of her final vote, and yet knowingly voted against an amendment to remove the arming of Israel. Her final no vote is a fig leaf covering her vote to send weapons to Israel.
