    They’re still sending weapons. You can’t keep giving guns to a guy that keeps murdering people, and then say “I told him not to murder people it’s not my fault”. How would that hold up in court?

      As long as Israel is under threat from Iran and other forces, we will continue sending them weapons and support. That’s the entire stated reason for supporting them.

        And Israel keeps mass-murdering civilians with said weapons and the US govt knows it.

            That excuse wouldn’t fly in a courtroom if someone helped a murderer (repeatedly and knowingly), even if they claim they gave them the weapon for self-defense. It’s proven the US govt knows what the weapons are used for, and they’ve been sending them continuously for over a year. It’s called being an accessory to the crime.

            Btw the genocide convention explicitly lists under article III e “complicity in genocide.”
