Israel is who we should be supporting and that’s where people are questioning the support.
Israel was attacked.
That attack actually was unprovoked.
Israel requested and afforded the opportunity to clear Gaza of civilians, but some of the people there didn’t leave.
Furthermore, Hamas is using the people there, hospitals, schools and religious buildings for cover and concealment.
Hamas took hundreds HOSTAGE!!! Not the Israeli’s, the Palestinian side.
We have 3 different security agreements with Israel, and a SOFA agreement.
Israel actually is a democracy.
Israel actually really is sovereign.
Israel actually follows its laws as a general rule.
Israel actually is using their armed forces and don’t have a bunch of thugs and mercenaries doing part of their dirty work for them.
The contrast, Ukraine vs. Israel is amazing. We support Ukraine no questions asked, while in reality that conflict was provoked, Ukraine isn’t a democracy, they aren’t really sovereign, and they have a horrible human rights record. But today we question our support for Israel and you have protests around the nation sometimes with thousands attending which are in support of the Palestinian cause.
IMHO: you can convince most Americans of ANYTHING. It’s just how you sell it.
Well said.
