    Read the article, she just basically didn’t back the Marjorie Tayler Greene bill because it wouldn’t halt offensive weapon support, only cut the iron dome funding. Seems like a headline to try to make AOC seem like she supports Israel, but in the text it admits she doesn’t.

      Money is fungible and what we provide them for “the iron dome” frees up funds for offensive weapons.

      Imagine if you will, by not giving Israel 500 million dollars for fucking free, you instead make them pay for it. Imagine where that money would come from!!! That’s right buddy!!! The same cash they need to run the war machine.

        Yes, but this is pretty obviously trying to slander someone who isn’t fine with the genocide because she isn’t supporting MTG, who absolutely does seem to be fine with it.

      You know what that 500 million wouldnt have went to? More bombs to kill palestinian children. You are advocating for liberal zionism, any attempt to defund the entity and put pressure on it to stop is a moral imperative. The fact that you think israel being able to act with complete fucking impunity by bombing its neighbors without fear of retaliation is liberal zionism.

      “In the text it admits she doesn’t” What do you call defending the choice to continue arming israel’s missile defense so that it can act with impunity other than supporting israel?

        And if she voted for it, you’d screech about how it didn’t go far enough and that she’s a supporter of Israel because it allowed offensive funding to continue, wouldn’t you?

        Cmon, you’re doing lib shit now

              Please try and prove me otherwise what makes you think it is progressive to continue funding the israeli ethnic cleansing? Because all of your comments indicate youre a shitlib who got fooled by AOC.

              You are advocating arming israel. You are a liberal zionist and as such your opinion is less than worthless. What kind of fucking moron would refuse to criticize someone arming a genocidal entity actively committing genocide? Fuck off back to feddit you shitlib
