To End 'Nightmare' in Gaza, Sanders Moves to Block Funding for Israeli Weapons
"Twenty-seven thousand dead—two-thirds of them women and children," said the senator. "This is unacceptable."

Unfortunately Israel doesn't need our funding or weapons.
Why have they been stepping up weapons transfers then?
Yeah, we could cut off every possible kind of funding to Israel and they'd still have sufficient military resources to level Gaza a hundred times over
So, we should just keep supplying more?
I agree that we should take it further. Support, and demand, a cease fire now. There is a lot of inertia and this is a step in the right direction where a lot of other people are running in the wrong direction.
Personally I don't think we should've been supplying them in the first place for the simple fact that they're more than suitably equipped already
I just think that if the goal is a ceasefire, neither continuing nor halting supplies would really move the needle. Want us to stop supplying them? Fine by me.
Agreed, but I do feel it’s important to do both. And this is a way to push against all that inertia of Israel being …. Well, Israel
