Approximately 1% of Gaza’s CIVILIAN population has been wiped out by Israel in 7 months.
We should not fund this war.
[1% is between Israel’s 0.7% and Gaza’s 1.5% official claims in this article]

Balls or what ...

Disagree. Hamas is a terrorist organization, and if we can simply fund their destruction without having to sacrifice our own civilians, I’m all for it.
We should not be funding the war in Ukraine, of course.
He’s taking an average there I believe
I think we should have fun with it. Provide all the 500 pound dumb bombs, napalm, 5 inch rockets and 50 cal ammo imaginable. Let guys with warbirds like P-47s, P-51s, Corsairs, Skyraiders, etc just set up a cab rank orbit and bomb and strafe Gaza at will.
Set up bleachers at the nearest relatively safe area.
Israel is a very wealthy nation. Do they need us to fund them? Can’t they simply purchase arms from us? Isn’t the “aid” we give them more coercive anyways?
You only end up funding both sides anyway.. It’s dumb.
HAMAS/ Iran shouldn’t have started it.
“Israel is a very wealthy nation. Do they need us to fund them? Can’t they simply purchase arms from us?”
Agreed.
And I do not favor sending any taxpayer money to any other countries. Even “loans” to other countries are often never paid back.
How can Congress justify giving our money away when we’re trillions in debt?
80% of Gazans support Hamas. Israel killing 1% of them bothers me not one bit.
Listen to this $300,000 hit piece on me by foreign interest lobbyist group AIPAC.

Human shields often get wiped out.
They ALL come from hamas
So called civilian deaths are NOT massive or even that large.
Israel is a modern warfare, compassionate nation with surgical strikability.
hamas is pissed off because their leaders are becoming fertilizer and the ONLY thing they have are cowardly hide behind civilian skirts and kids and a fairly good media following foisting sympathetic propaganda . . . . .
Go Israel . . . . . ice the bastards.
Stupid or what? Hamas has the goal of irradiating Israel
Israel pays for weapons from us
Disagree.
1. The civilian death toll in Gaza is 100% on the shoulders of Hamas - they operate using the whole civilian population of Gaza as their human shields, tyring to thwart Isaeli attacks and INSURING civilians casualities when Israel does.
2. Israel was attacked by Hamas, unprovoked, on October 7th, not the other way around.
3. Israel cannot go into the future leaving Hamas in place in Gaza, which would only INSURE further war later on, with further casualities and possibly worst circumstances than today.
If Massie does not understand those things he should resign.
It’s some of the best foreign aid we could provide especially considering our country finances terrorism and is actually part of the problem. Maybe Massie should be as vocal about stopping aid to terrorists
If people complaining about “foreign aid” really wanted to cut the federal debt and deficit, they’d get on their soap boxes in Congress and demand the trillions in new federal spending under Biden be revoked - not “cut back” - revoked.
Do they do that?
No. They rail about the popular chump change items.
Funding terrorists and cutting of their victims is despicable
