    Which part of US leadership supports Israel, then? I mean, backing them at the UN, shipping weapons and stuff? Genuine question, just because from the outside looking in, it really seems like it’s the US and only the US propping up Israel right now.

      It’s still bipartisan, sadly. 100% of the GOP are behind Israel, and maybe 50% of Dem leadership at this point.

        Which Dem leadership is against sending weapons? Name them.

        EDIT: Can’t do it apparently.
        EDIT 2: Names three people, two of which I’ve never seen referred to as “dem leadership”, can’t quantify how they’re defining “dem leadership” because if you include Bernie and AOC it’s nowhere near 50%.

          I find it exceedingly strange that you made this edit 30 minutes after posting a response to a 6-hour old comment. Not sure what you think it proves.

          Sanders, AOC, nearly any progressive in Congress; fuck, even Pelosi, who is certainly not a progressive, has gotten in on it. Opinions have changed rapidly. Sorry you haven’t been paying attention, I guess.

          Have fun sealioning.

            I made the edit because three people came by to down vote but had no response. You’d have a point if nobody had seen the comment. Obviously that wasn’t the case.

            And since when is Sanders or AOC considered Dem leadership? And three examples isn’t even close to “50%”

              … fucking what? How is that at all relevant?

              Quite clearly you aren’t interested in a serious conversation.

                Lol buddy, you made an outrageous claim that you can’t possibly back up and now you’re trying real hard to deflect.

                But don’t worry, I suspect we’ll run into each other again and I’ll keep bringing this up. Either you can admit what you said is bullshit or you can prove your 50% claim. But what you’re doing here is sad even for you.
