[based on speech given to US Senate]
"Thursday marks 68 days and counting since ANY humanitarian aid was allowed into Gaza. For more than nine weeks, Israel has blocked all supplies: no food, no water, no medicine, and no fuel.
Hundreds of truckloads of lifesaving supplies are waiting to enter Gaza, sitting just across the border, but are denied entry by Israeli authorities.
… Defense Minister Israel Katz said, “Israel’s policy is clear: No humanitarian aid will enter Gaza, and blocking this aid is one of the main pressure levers.” "
I can tell when I’ve won a conversation by how many words a person tries to put into my mouth.
I do not want manufacturing or selling of weapons.
I do not want a Muslim genocide.
Feel free to not listen to what other people say, like a typical American.
ROFLMAO. You did exactly that for me. Look mates, I “won” a conversation! What kind of numpty tries to win conversations? An absolute broomstick, this one.
Quote me
Check and mate. As the “winner” of this conversation, I await my crown.
You said I did that to you. I’m waiting for that quote.
Or… are you saying you agree with me?
I literally just quoted it. Big ol’ block of text there. You can verify, I pulled it from your post history. I do agree with you, never disagreed.
I’m sorry. Just so we are sure to be on the same page, you agree with:
ML doesn’t care about Gaza, or genocide, they use it as a tool to destroy the west while allowing Muslim genocide when it cannot condemn the US.
There is more Muslim genocide going on than just Gaza.
While the US is certainly complicit by selling weapons and not saying a damn thing, there are many other countries doing the same thing and should be equally shamed for allowing… and encouraging Muslim genocide.
[optional] most people on lemmy only care about genocide when it condemns the US.
Well, I completely misread you. Probably because I’m taking it from many sides on this one, and I’m in defense mode. Please accept my apology.
You keep trying to distract from a country that is selling weapons to netanyahu for genocide. In a thread about that country’s complicity. Declare victory some more.
I’m literally saying I don’t want the manufacturing or selling of weapons.
And yet somehow you think I am ok with the manufacturing and selling of weapons.
Cow, duck.
By whom? For whom? Let’s see if you can even admit that netanyahu is committing genocide.
The US should not be manufacturing and selling weapons. Especially to Israel, given that they are using them for genocide.
Germany, UK, India, still sell Israel weapons and are complicit in genocide.
India has recently escalated their attacks on Pakistan, who is like 95% Muslim. As you mentioned, China is also participating in a global Muslim genocide.
Do you recognize the global genocide of Muslims?
Why wouldn’t I?
As you mentioned, you have no problem with china or their genocide. Just ml.
Yes or no, do you believe there is a global Muslim genocide or do you not?
Already answered that question. You just keep deflecting.
Before you continue engaging, I suggest having a look at their comment history, unless you’re just enjoying taking the piss out of them. Our lad’s primary mode of communication is deflection.
You did not say yes or no. You said why wouldn’t you? And I can think of a number of reasons why you might not but I don’t know you… So I’m going to give you the opportunity to answer that question to be very clear with your opinions so I do not put words in your mouth.
