    Just curious, I know the case against sending weapons to Israel. What is the rationale for continuing to do so?

      I think it boils down to religion, having a puppet in the region, or fascists sticking together. Depending on the individual pushing it.

      I think it might help to stabilize the region. If other countries that might want to attack Israel while they are distracted or even in defense of Gaza know that the US is still supporting them and providing weapons they will be less likely to do so. But of course that means there is basically nothing to stop Israel from finishing this genocide and Netanyahu knows it…

        It’s not like they need the “aid” but it being a symbolic gesture of support does make sense, not that I agree with it.
