So what you’re saying is that I should’ve used “and once the bank robbery was happenning, pulled out two RPGs and offered more guns to the bank robber ‘once my buddies approve it’” in my metaphor rather than the whole “openning a suitcase full of guns before the robbery” thing: after all, the US did send 2 aircraft carriers to “support Israel” and will be sending an “aid” package now that the fascists in Israel have already and clearly been acting for several weeks far beyond self-defense and into Genocide territory.
Indeed, all things considered, it’s even harder for Joe and his posse to feign surprise at their greatest Fascist buddy going full Fascist than it would’ve been per my over-optimistic early point.
Biden’s aid package consists of anti-missile defense systems and humanitarian aid to Gazans. I have no problem with either of those, and neither should Gazans.
The aircraft carrier and other naval forces aren’t doing anything except trying to keep other countries from entering the conflict and shooting down missiles. Which again I have no problem with.
If you must draw a silly analogy, it’s like showing up to the bank robbery and opening a suitcase full of bulletproof vests.
We’ve been giving Israel billions every year for 40 plus years so it’s more like we took the bank robber shopping for his mask and guns and then drove him to the bank
