Just so it doesn’t get understated, there has literally never been a single change in US relations with Israel since 1948. This is the single biggest policy change the State department has ever made.
What policy change are you referring to? I didn’t see any mentioned in the article. Looks like business as usual despite the clear evidence of genocide aided by US weaponry
This is a public signal by the State department, which has influence backed by federal law. It’s a warning that the bombs will dry up if any US arms are used in the aid of war crimes. Yes. Everyone knows that US arms have been used in Israeli war crimes. That’s the point of the message, and will have enormous shifts in foreign policy by the entirety of NATO.
Edit: the direct answer to your question is that the US has never warned Israel like this. They have never threatened to end military aid.
Alright I get that… but that’s not a policy change… maybe seems pedantic but a policy change is a codified change in institutional behavior. That’s quite different from a warning or public signal
Half assing a report saying that Israeli maybe used US weapons against civilians after 6 months of Israel blatantly murdering civilians with US weapons is definitely not enough lol.
Israel seems to be going ahead with their full assault on Rafah which means the ceasefire deal is probably down the gutter.
So it would be enough if Biden actually follows through with serious consequences for Israel. He stopped one shipment as a threat so far, so I’m patiently waiting to see how he reacts.
Or this not an example of ignoring reason or sense?
Well, you’re well past your 3rd explanation., and if you “don’t get it” at this point, it’s either because you’re too dumb, or — obviously — arguing in bad faith. Both are your fault, and nobody else’s obligation to deal with.
Just like all conservatives, You blame everyone else for the consequences of your own failings. Because if you can’t win on merit, just smear shit on the walls until everyone runs away.

Bush and Reagan actually blocked arms for israel.
This is a giant gaslighting nothing burger from Genocide Joe.
Oh damn the Russian bots getting desperate
This is what he’s talking about:

The fact that you don’t even know about this speaks volumes.
You can open Google you know.
That won’t stop a huge amount of people from complaining that this “isn’t enough” and failing to appreciate what a monumental victory that this is.
Not satisfied that this doesn’t go far enough? Keep protesting! It works!
Came back here just to tell you this halted shipment lasted a whopping 3 days before Biden approved a new 1.1 billions arms sale to Israel.
How dare I not be able to predict the future!
Another day, another DNC shill lol
And who are you voting for?

Vote for Trump then, since you’re willing to ignore any concept of reason or sense
Pot calling kettle?
