    Any lessening of military aid to Israel is a step in the right direction at this point. If they have less free defense then they have to move spending, potentially offense spending, to defense. If this is all we can do currently, I don’t know why people wouldn’t vote for it. We should still fight to cut off their offense aid, but at least there’s some movement. I don’t think we should be giving any military aid to a country committing a genocide. I think the “don’t let perfect be the enemy of good” applies here.

      Right…

      Like I said, stopping all weapons is the right answer.

      But if you’re going to defend bombs or missile defense…

      It makes zero sense to only remove defense unless your goal is more death on both sides rather than lessening the current amount of deaths.
