      “we armed the bully with brass knuckles and body armor and all the implicit endorsement that kind of thing brings but he usually just chokes out his victims with his bare hands so AKSHUALLY we are blameless here” 🤓☝️

      That is not an argument against not supplying bombs, artillery and tank shells, fighter jets… And the vast majority of Israeli attacks are not sniper attacks. Also without the US sending missile systems to protect Israel against the neighbors intervening, that gives the cover under which the snipers can act with impunity.

        No, what I’m saying is stopping the supply of arms won’t stop the genocide. Folks who make that argument are kidding themselves.

        There is only one way to stop the genocide and that’s a full scale invasion of Israel to separate the two parties and force them to behave, but nobody has the balls to float that idea.
