What do the MAGA people rightfully condemning Hamas for their actions think the Russians did when they invaded Ukraine?
The Palestinians now have a response to anybody who says they should just compromise with Israel.
"Should Ukraine just compromise with Russia and give up their land?"
Now now that is an uncomfortable truth and as a white person I don't like those. Please don't bring that up again.
No Western government really cares about the dispossession and oppression of Palestinians for the last ~70 years because none of them care about Arabs dying.
It's why the third world collectively responded with a shrug when Western governments demanded action against Russia (and just if anyone is wondering, I'm greatly opposed to the Russian invasion).
It's hard for them to reconcile the double standard.
They think that the Ukrainians were being mean to their good friend Vladimir Putin who only has the best interests of America in his heart and is a very good friend to Trump, who has never done anything wrong.
Also, being a hypocrite is part of being a MAGAt.
Why not link it to aid for the Pennsylvania train derailments? Or the Hawaii fires?
There has been quite a bit of aid for both of those disasters
because for US killing people and managable chaos are more important endeavours.
I'm not sure why you would expect Republicans to care about either of those.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Lawmakers in both parties who support additional aid for Ukraine have suggested the approach as a potential way to secure funding for Kyiv despite opposition from some Republican members in the House and the Senate.
The White House is quietly evaluating the political viability of linking aid for Ukraine and Israel, the administration official said, while acknowledging that ultimately the decision will be up to Congress.
The National Security Council’s coordinator for strategic communications, Adm. John Kirby, said Monday, “Both are important, and we are a large enough, big enough, economically viable and vibrant enough country to be able to support both.”
In his call with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Biden vowed to support Israel’s requests in the coming days and weeks, the administration official said.
The short-term spending bill that Biden signed into law last month to avoid a government shutdown didn’t include any new funding for Ukraine, kicking off a debate about how to handle the matter.
McCarthy, who isn’t running again for speaker, declined to say at a news conference Monday whether aid to Israel should be part of a package with funding for Ukraine and border security.
