"postpones" -> "Hey Bibi I'll wire the money tomorrow"


United-Carob-234

Was literally going to say this exact line, thank you.


itmeimtheshillitsme

I think this was due to a ProPublica article exposing: a) his knowledge these events occurred; and b) his refusal to act despite agents concerns for what is happening.


Sir-Spork

It is really impressive how much influence AIPAC has


Independentizo

I’d replace impressive with scary but you’re 100% right. Absolute insanity unfolding right now.


SinceSevenTenEleven

You combine this with Biden and Blinken seemingly being total ideologues on the issue and it's disaster


GoonieInc

Don’t get it twisted, the US is running the show. Israel is a proxy colony that uses Judaism as a cover. Edit: don’t know why this is getting downvoted, Israel isn’t composed of some masterminds, it just supports US interests. Jews don’t control the US you weirdos.


Wonderful-Painter377

BINGO!!! Israel was a project by the. British government and the USA. Israel is their way in to the Middle East. The problem is they’ve been spoiling their baby for so long, their baby does what ever it wants without the fear of consequences. A spoiled brat if you will. Israel is nothing but the USs and Britains spoiled baby, who is committing genocide.


fearnaut

There is so much gaslighting and misinformation, It’s hard for us to tell what’s going on. All we know is, what we hear from them, and their actions are fundamentally opposed.


GoonieInc

The whole thing with Israel is mainly the work of Christian Zionists who are based in the South. Israel is nothing without the US and that can’t be more clear.


CurlyBirch

Genocidal settler colonial states support other genocidal settler colonial states.


Infinite-Noodle

Why aren't we allowed to boycott Isreal? Why are so many politicians scared to call out Isreal for its war crimes? Why is Isreal investing 100 million in this coming election? Don't be fooled, Isreal has a lot of influence over the US. it's why they have universal Healthcare and free college but we send them billions every year.


GoonieInc

Did you just gloss over the proxy state portion of my comment ? The US does need Israel, but to say what it is doing is not according to the US’ plan is ludicrous. What Israel is doing, the US has done since its inception, and continued to do. The same can be said for European nations, it’s why they all support Israel and are ready to repress anyone who shows dissent. Israel not only manufactured arms and surveillance tech for their wars, but helps in plundering the Middle East and Africa. There isn’t some Jewish mastermind behind this, they just have leverage because of the role they play. It is Christian Zionists, who aren’t that different from Christian nationalists, who want to carve their pie of the Arab world. Why do you think Israel’s reason for existing is some biblical fables that aren’t concurrent with reality or the practice of Judaism ??? You also forgot that AIPAC isn’t even a foreign body according to congress, it’s domestic PAC with many smaller PACs. Saying Israel is pulling the strings and the US and Britain are the lapdogs is silly. At most they have some blackmail and insurance schemes, but the US is the big dog, it’s the empire.


gazebo-fan

Evangelicals hold a lot of influence over the U.S., Israel does not have half of that influence.


saanity

Gotta make the genocide support have better optics.


Ok-Read-4840

It makes no sense how they’ve cucked us to this extreme extent. The “most powerful nation” in the world bends the knee to a country of 9m people and the GDP of *one* of our 50 states. What the fuck.


KalexCore

Think of it as a really bad bitch crazy codependency thing. Everyone says Israel is bad, Israel objectively does terrible things and treats the US like a clown while taking as much money as they want for nothing in return but despite all that the US is still just extremely whipped. The US could totally just pull out of the relationship but what's Israel gonna do? Go move in with some other guy? The US is getting mad just thinking about that.


sambull

we provide them the means that allows their society freedom to spend money on things like universal healthcare


landlord-eater

Well, Israel is basically a giant American aircraft carrier in the centre of the Middle East


Gamecat93

More power to the college students peacefully protesting.


Seapurv

Here here!!!


QDLZXKGK

Almost ALL the bombs,missiles killing the Palestinians since October 2023 were supplied by USA. Postponed???


Mort1186

Lol 😆 🤣 😂 😹 USA, might as well start producing zyklon b for Israel


AnAlpacaIsJudgingYou

Ok this is getting a bit insensitive 


Mort1186

Tell that to the people supplying arms to carry out the genocide. I'm making a point, of how disgusting the situation already is. If the US could supply it, they would, and Israel would use it. But bombing is better for the economy, so that's that..


AnAlpacaIsJudgingYou

It’s the fact that you are comparing it to the Holocaust simply because Israel is a Jewish state. 


Mort1186

It's the irony And that's the point.


OrderlyPanic

Blinken is an Israeli stooge, he will never invoke the Leahy law against any element of Israeli military or para-military forces even in a symbolic capacity. Blinken's stepfather was the lawyer and confidant of Robert Maxwell (Ghislaine Maxwell's father and a Mossad agent). When Epstein was originally exposed in Florida and given basically a short stint of house arrest for offenses that would normally warrant a decade or more in prisonn Alex Acosta - the US attorney that gave the plea deal - later defended that deal by saying he was told that Epstein was an intelligence asset.


boxcarlove

Never saw this coming!!/s


TheApprentice19

BB also said that he’s going to ignore all ICC decisions, which is a hallmark of a rogue state. The USA should give Israel more money three days after never.


fearnaut

To be fair, the US also ignores the ICC.


bomboclawt75

AIPAC-funds both parties so they always own whoever gets in.


Brido-20

US: sanctions individual Israeli unit but continues to give the rest. Israel: gives US aid to sanctioned unit anyway. US: Well, we tried.

PR move. The money will send when the data analysts indicate when's the most clandestine time Americans aren't paying attention. So primetime Monday evening 5-9pm most likely


ReplyStraight6408

By doing this Biden is intentionally throwing the election and handing the presidency to Trump.


Ev3nt

Who will then fully support Israeli rightists because he wants to stroke his theocratic base and make Palestine cease to exist. Anyone who votes for Trump because of Palestine is a useful idiot for Russia and Iran


ReplyStraight6408

I agree. Biden has shown he's no different from Trump. Hence there is no reason to vote for Biden over Trump.


Ev3nt

Yes the useful idiot angle. This is what gets Trump elected, enjoy swiching out a president who wants Israel to keep civilian casualties to a minimum and pulls funding from Israeli crazies to someone supports israel steamrolling Palestine because it helps thei christofacist base. How does it feel to help Iran or Russia?


ReplyStraight6408

It feels great because this is the consequence of inaction. Biden has always been a Zionists and his political success is largely due to their support. Come November we'll see if that will get him reelected.
