As someone who is Jewish, I have NO issues with Israel defending itself. However, we shouldn't be giving them anything, if they want weapons, they can pay fair market value for them

Also this smells blatant corruption.
US giving money to Israel to buy US weapons. Does no one thinks it's fishy as fuck? It's like legal money laundering.

Also like, Israel doesn't even need our weapons. They're more than capable of handling their own military affairs without US help.

No because it is part of the terms of the peace treaty between Israel and Egypt over Sinai.

And the answer was given. It is not subjective as to whether or not this is a genocide.

Israel tortures, starves and sexually abuses children who are held in detention camps.

Pretty sure that does not count as self defense.

It's objectively a genocide. But to the genociders and the deniers, it's subjectively not.
Do people doesn't understand the difference between Objective and subjective anymore? The Holocaust was subjectively a just action by the Nazis.

Ukraine is a little different, because that conflict it is not so asymmetric and there is a US strategic interest in showing the world that old-gen US arms beat current-gen Russian arms (and derived Chinese arms).

Your appear to not understand the difference. Saying an action that happened is something that happened is objective. Subjective would be the underlying on why it happened. The Holocaust was objectively an action by the Nazis.

Also, "doesn't" is improper English. It should be "not."

Well yea the conflict is inherently different but the US is still effectively giving Ukraine money to buy US weapons like they are with Israel. The charge was that this is money laundering and I'm trying to suss out if what the US is doing in Ukraine is also money laundering. You can argue against continuing to give Israel arms but I don't think the reasoning that I responded to holds up.

So, the nazi's thought it was ok and there-for did nothing wrong? Whats wrong with you? Are you just saying words to say them? This genocide defence bs is sickening.

You can argue against continuing to give Israel arms but I don't think the reasoning that I responded to holds up.

Money laundering means (illegally) disguising the origin of income (to avoid taxes or record of illegal activity). Foreign aid spent on US weapons is very different, because the paper trail is well-defined, and often even public and auditable. It is closer to an inefficient form of welfare (since some of the money eventually ends up going back to taxpayers as wages). In the specific case of Ukraine, some (most?) of the weapons were considered too old for front-line US use and had been scheduled for disposal.

Correct. Ukraine is defending themselves from genocide using American weapons. Israel is perpetrating genocide using American weapons. The two situations aren't even remotely comparable.

Weird that you guys attacking someone who pointed out that DDP886 is a denier instead of the genocide denier DDP886 himself.

Anyone who subjectively see IDF did no wrong is a genocide denier.
