    Cutting them off only makes them weaker should they be attacked by Iran

    That’s pretty much the best way to get them to stop, let them face repercussions. So you’ve already proven that point false.

      Except what happens then is the radical pro-Israel lobby then attacks anyone and everyone involved in that decision, actively making things worse here.

        Then the right move would’ve been to change on the position just before voting began so AIPAC wouldn’t have the time to respond with attack ads. It took AIPAC eight months and 25 million to unseat two anti-genocide representatives

        and we should reward them for interfering in our elections instead of jailing them ? do you know what happened the last time world tried to appease genocidal right wing lunatics ?

        So nobody should do anything to stop Israel attacking people because otherwise Israel will attack them?

        That’s specious reasoning.

          There’s literally nothing anyone can do short of removing Netanyahu and Likud from power.

              That won’t stop the genocide. Sniper bullets are cheap. They don’t need our help to kill kids.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That’s all the rules!
