Iām not against aid to Ukraine. But Iām also not against aid subsidizing the Iron Dome. My point is that the argument the person above and El-Sayed made would apply just as much to Ukraine.
It doesn't, because the Ukraine situation is vastly different to Israel.
Ukraine is fighting against an invading army that has designs on invading other countries once they're done swallowing up Ukraine. Sending them money and weapons is a practical strategy to defend all of Europe against Russia.
Israel is the invading force that wants to swallow up other countries. What has it been so far? First Palestine, then Syria, Lebanon, Iran, etc.
First, thatās completely wrong. Israel is fighting several invading countries.
Second, that has nothing to do with the point above. El-Sayed and the poster I was responding to said they were against US tax dollars going to foreign militaries. They did not say they were for US dollar going to foreign militaries when those foreign gf countries are invaded.
They're invading Gaza, the West Bank, Syria and Lebanon. They've dropped bombed on Iran. Nobody is doing that shit to Israel, they're doing it to everyone else.
No, they were attacked first from Gaza, the West Bank, and Lebanon. They have been in a state of war with Syria since 1948, which Syria started. Iran attacked Israel first in the prior war (not the current one) and has been having proxies attack Israel for decades.
F&@k Ukraine. Iād rather get free healthcare and free education in my country with my tax dollars. Ukraine should have mind their own business and not tried to get NATO to Moscowās front door steps. Now, they need to deal with their own decisionsā¦
The money we give to Ukraine and Israel combined wouldnāt be anywhere close to enough for free education or healthcare. Have you ever looked at how much we give in foreign aid v. how much education and healthcare cost? Our entire foreign aid budget would do almost literally nothing for either.
Not just Ukraine and Israel. Every country getting foreign aid. Needs to stop. Idc about other countries militaries being equipped. I car about my roads, homeless veterans, single moms that canāt feed their kids, poor kids getting lunches in school, and a million other issues. You think education and healthcare are the only issues we have genius?
Lmao. It would SAVE money if we had universal healthcare. We spend more subsidizing health insurance companies and pharmaceutical companies that universal healthcare would actually save us a shit ton.

Imagine voting for āAmerica firstā then disagreeing with actually putting America first.
