Well that is certainly one interpretation of her words. Maybe not the one closest to the truth but definitely one way of thinking lol.

I mean I disagree I think it's absolutely closest to the truth. She's just trying to fudge what she means but that's exactly what the truth is.

No, her goal is to preserve life. Israel needs defense just like any other country. They don't need the other three billion dollars that we give them for offense. Removing their money for defense is the dumbest idea. That is what AOC is pointing out.

So you would support the USA sending billions of dollars of defensive weapons to Russia to protect them from Ukrainian attack?

Or are you a hypocritical toad?

Your ad homonym means that this conversation is over.

Ah yes, the classic reddit loser move of reading off terms from the wikipedia entry on logical fallacies like they're magic incantations that win internet arguments.

Maybe you should actually learn what ad-hominem means before trying to act like a mystical debate wizard, because nothing I said was one.
