- To the best of my knowledge (which may be inaccurate or incomplete), the extent to which Netanyahu funded Hamas is the extent to which the last treaty signed between Gaza and Israel demanded. Hamas then reappropriated the funds. The real funding for Hamas is Iran. Anyone who tells you different is selling you something…
- Have they tried Israel? Egypt? Saudi Arabia? Lots of countries near by who aren’t constantly starting wars…
- Ending our military support of Israel will not impact whether or not there is a humanitarian crisis in Gaza, but will instead create one in Israel. If Israel ever lacks the means to defend itself from the Islamist nations in the Middle East, all Israelis will be massacred. Ending the humanitarian crisis in Gaza will require political leadership in Gaza who care about their own citizens instead of killing innocent citizens of other countries…

I don’t want to end military support, I think Israel needs to start paying for it’s own wars. I’m just against unconditional military aid

Like ceasing to exist?
It’s Hamas that keeps rejecting offers, not Israel.

With donors like Miriam Adelson this will NEVAR habben.
Because they haven’t been the aggressors since the Balfour Declaration?..quit being myopic.
The bible states in Genesis 12:3 kjv "And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families be blessed "
We do not turn our backs on the only middle east ally
We should stop ALL foreign aide. Many parts of our country are falling into 3rd world status, and yet we are spending hundreds of billions of dollars elsewhere. Let them solve their own problems. We have enough of our own.
Agree. Unconditional support for Israel needs to end. We also need to unseal all documents related to their involvement in anything since 1946 and begin serious investigations into their activities, involvement, and ownership interest in the U.S. I believe they are responsible for several atrocities and power moves throughout history.

Israel is not a democracy. They forced vaccinated their entire population as an experiment. They have systematically ethically cleansed the Palestinian people and have had them under occupation for nearly 70 years. Israel are colonizers with a horrible humanitarian track record. You’re welcome to donate your money to that cause. Donate, volunteer, whatever you’d like, but to be forced to hand my tax dollars over to this genocide, absolutely not.

Gallant, the defense minister who was just fired, told hostage families that a cease fire was very possible in July, but Netanyahu made a stipulation that was unjustified and scotched the negotiations.
All political bands were dissolved in 1776.
Forming additional ones after the fact is Unconstitutional and they therefore do not actually exist.
The modern state of Israel is the direct result of US military internationalism abroad and Harry S. Truman’s policy response to an excess of Jewish immigrants from Europe in the 1930s and '40s. Creation of any pure, expanding, ethnic state will result in a humanitarian crisis.
That being said, it’s already here. The US needs to revert back to a foreign policy of military isolationism and friendly trading abroad.
Isreal does not start wars.
It defends itself.
You should read History.
There will be no peace when all Isreal’s enemies want is them wiped off the Earth.
Regardless of your stance, the Framers of the Constitution warned of financial and military involvement with nations abroad. Not to mention wars of religion.
The purpose of separation of church and state is to keep forever from these shores the ceaseless strife that has soaked the soil of Europe with blood for centuries. - James Madison
Peace, commerce, and honest friendship with all nations; entangling alliances with none. - Thomas Jefferson.
The means of defense against foreign danger historically have become the instruments of tyranny at home. A man has a property in his opinions and the free communications of them. No nation could preserve itself in the midst of continual warfare. - James Madison
