    US State Department is investigating waiting for idf to investigate.

    It’s almost been a year of Israel indiscriminately killing in the area and the state department still refuses to do an investigation. Still waiting for Israel to investigate themselves.

    But yeah sure. We’re totally gonna do something other than fund and supply weapons

      This has nothing to do with the finding of fact as to how this woman died

      In fact,it’s not true. First, let’s ignore the fact that this woman apparently from small arms fire which we don’t supply to the Israelis. Congress wrote a bill to supply other weapons to Isreal. to Isreal. It was unable to put restrictions on sale. That left it in Biden’s lap. Biden asked State to evaluate how the Israelis were using weapons as it pertains to standing US law. The result was that State could not find a legal reason not to supply.

      You can have your own feelings on the matter, but not your own facts

          So, there’s a report from state that says Isreal is using weapons in line with US law and someone at state doesn’t agree? Call it the reason for resignation? Fact is it is still a report issued to the President

              When a report is issued it becomes an item that can be subject to supena. Therefore, the House could get it and use it in investigation of Biden had he not followed it

        Yeah, imagine that. Someone from the Biden administration pretending not to see the obvious.

          We are a nation of laws. You may not like them. You may ridicule them. But you mind them anyway. It’s no different for the President unless you’re Trump

            You celebrate bad faith in government when it’s in favor of genocide.

            You’re no different than Trumpers who rejoiced that the system “works” when SCOTUS overturned Roe.

                Pretending to see no genocide when it’s fucking obvious so you don’t have to abide by the Leahy Law is absolutely bad faith, even though you clearly approve of the results.
