    Some Democratic lawmakers have spoken of making the proposed $14.3 billion in American assistance to its Mideast ally contingent on concrete steps by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government to reduce civilian casualties in Gaza during the war with Hamas.

    Think any Republicans would every say that?

        Because Democrats are trying to rein in Netanyahu. Republicans are trying to make him go farther. You really don’t see the difference?

          some portion of democrats are telling you they’re trying to rein in Netanyahu, because it’s going terribly for them politically. In practice, the only things they have actively done is send him more weapons to kill more Gazans with. That’s it.

            It always comes down to conspiracy theories with you people. “They SAY they want to stop the genocide but what they REALLY want is more genocide”. If I throw enough facts that contradict your story, you’ll start abandoning facts.

                I’m saying it’s impossible to prove they’re not lying, that’s what makes it a conspiracy theory.

                  I’ve been proving they’re lying. Jeez even if we didnt live in a cartoon world where democrats are actively sending bombs for Israel to use on more Gaza civilians, they’d still be lying because they are saying they are going to do something, and we can see that they havent done it!

                    Because your definition of “do something” is always “do more than what you can accomplish with the numbers we give you”. That’s why it’s impossible to prove - how ever much they do, you’ll say it’s nothing.
