Why are we still sending aid to Israel? Isn't it illegal for us to send military aid to governments committing war crimes? Israel has blockaded humanitarian aid from entering Gaza for more than 50 days. That is a clear violation of international law. They are openly killing Palestinian medics and then saying it did not violate the military code of ethics. These are war crimes. I do not want my taxes funding any of this. No aid to war criminals. Although I suppose it becomes difficult to recognize war criminals when our administration, past and current, is in such lockstep with Israel. We need to break away and begin trying to help instead of hurt. The genocide in Gaza only benefits Netanyahu and his regime. It does not benefit Israelis, and they don't want it. Let's listen to them.
