    “Since the damage has already been done, there’s no need to supply them with new weapons for this.”

      Right now al-quassam is camped out in foxholes and natural cover and using mortar fire against the Israelis. They are still capable of damaging Zionist materiel right now, so a lack of munitions might be more than a slap on the wrist.

        I really hope so, though I doubt the US would stop supplying them with weapons if they actually needed them. I guess it’ll be a question of whether they sneakily supply them with weapons while claiming they aren’t, or they’ll talk about “moral imperatives” to continue supplying their genocide.

    Biden saying the US won’t supply weapons to attack Rafah is a non-statement. On paper, virtually all of the munitions the US gives Israel, which they use to genocide Palestinians, are supposedly for self-defense against Iran, and there’s no indication that the US will stop doing that

    I will not send weapons for Israel to use in the invasion of Rafah. I will be sending Israel weapons to store. If they happen to use those weapons in the attack then it’s unfortunate, but it was never our intent for them to be used in Rafahbiden-troll
