I mean do you really think the Democrats can just ignore the extreme unpopularity of Israel right now? And then do you also believe that they are just going to stop supporting it’s existence as much as they can get away with? None of the people that support this really want an end to Israel (which should be everyone’s goal).
better than nothing.
There it is. It always comes down to this. “Why support good thing, when I could support not as terrible thing instead?”
I don’t think anyone in the DSA support the integration of the Israeli and US military. I’m curious what actual policies you think they should be calling for here, like actual policies not just saying “death to Israel”. Like I don’t think an US military intervention into Israel is really in the cards, or even an embargo of the country.
That’s not their point. Their point is that “Military aid” to Israel is not all that must be opposed. That is not where the genocidal military industrial complex begins nor ends.
I don’t agree with the way they are phrasing it. But they have not stated support for Israel, and I dont think we need to assume zionism of people.
nobody else here wants aid to israel either, and would happily clarify if it came up that “aid” is shorthand for any support channel like this direct military integration shit
Supporting this is a limited hangout. Military funding to Israel is very unpopular so they are moving to a different model.

So, what? We should support military aid to Israel?
