Humor me for a second. Quick poll. You can just write “Yes” or “No” in the comments.
No.

I don’t support sending ANYTHING to Israel. They aren’t a scrappy start up needing our help anymore and haven’t been for decades.
That said, I understand WHY we continue supporting them:

Like, on a pallet, or high speed with the arming pins removed?
Israel currently has enough weapons stockpiled that they could continue the genocide for several months before they’d need to consider changing tactics. I don’t see what use sending them additional weapons/munitions does - just stick it in a warehouse until they need it next winter? It’s just a visible show of support right now.
Cut off that support. Let Israel swing in the wind without unconditional support and maybe they’ll finally start pulling back from all-out extermination. Make sure any future shipments are bound with enforceable limits on their use, like the US has on almost every other arms shipment it makes. And take whatever we were going to send to Israel for the next six months, and send it to Ukraine, which actually is fighting a war for it’s very survival against a much larger adversary.
No.
No
Not unless they were getting Ukraine’d by Egypt/Jordan/Lebanon/Syria. Since they’re not, they can make do imho.
No. Why are you asking?
Because one of the troll accounts is trying to say Biden-supporters here mostly support giving weapons to Israel, and I’m naive enough to think it’s worth investing time to demonstrate that that’s a bunch of poo poo.
Why I take the internet this seriously instead of just shaking my head and moving on with my day, I honestly don’t know.
No. They have a lot already.
Emotionally? No Via taxes? Yes Do I know enough to know the right way out of the quagmire? No
Jewish No.
I don’t support weapons.
Yes, to the Palestinians
You understand that most of them would end up in Hamas’s hands right?
