Israel doesn’t need our support. Ukraine does. Easy choice.
Palestine needs our support though.
Palestine isn’t getting our support, and these current events will not change that at all.
Removing funding from israel will indirectly support palestine, because then israel will stop pissing away US tax dollars on chemical weapons
I lack the words, so I have used interpretive meming instead.
The paper tiger is beginning to shred. Hopefully.
The US, famous for just rolling over. You guys are on more copium than imperial japan and it’s hilarious.

The US has a lot of criticism that can be leveled at it, but “paper tiger” certainly isn’t one.
Literally the Vietnamese called the US a paper tiger and then kicked the US’ ass.
If what the US did to Vietnam and Cambodia over 20+ years is a “paper tiger” then uh, I don’t think a real tiger exists.
Do genocide and fail at winning wars against relatively small impoverished nations?
I guess if killing 1million+ Vietnamese is something a “paper tiger” does sure the US is a “paper tiger.”
Yes. This isn’t call of duty where the goal is to kill as many people as possible. The US got its ass kicked.
Yes I get it. The US lost the Vietnam war. The issue is that a “paper tiger” doesn’t kill 1million+ people. Losing a war doesn’t mean you are a paper tiger.
Is Hamas also a paper tiger? Russia? Israel?
what’s saigon called
So paper tiger’s kill 1million+ people and then someone else’s capital city is renamed? Is the US the only “paper tiger” to ever exist? I figured the expression would be much older then the US.
Better start a bidding war for boom boom rations, or scale back the secret wars in the global South. Damn making the $Trillion military pick and choose.

Did they really or you’re just speculating?
Why do you need to support Israel at all beyond the amount that was previously being done? They’re not in an actual war and they’re not having to defend against an invasion like Ukraine is.
Geopolitically speaking, you should completely pull out of Israel. Seriously, do it. Pull all funding from Israel.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The White House said it was “running out of runway” on supporting both Ukraine and Israel as US Republican lawmakers warned they would protest any funding request for military aid from the Biden administration for the two crisis-hit nations.
Mr Kirby was answering a question at a daily briefing on the administration meeting the immediate needs of Ukraine and Israel along with the continuing fight to elect a House Speaker.
The National Security Council coordinator also said the House Speaker position was critical in terms of bringing legislation to the floor and moving things forward.
The White House has been considering a budget request tying money for these two conflicts together to increase the chances that the heavily-debated assistance for Ukraine will be approved.
He told Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu that the US will send more military assistance to help Israel fight Hamas.
The US is already rushing munitions and military equipment to Israel and has deployed a carrier strike group to the eastern Mediterranean as deterrence.
The original article contains 417 words, the summary contains 168 words. Saved 60%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Israel is like David and Goliath, but this time Goliath wins.
While there is no evidence to support it, some experts are pointing at Putin’s lukewarm response after the attack, and the fact that this division of efforts is immensely helpful to his invasion in Ukraine, and are wondering if he worked with Iran to help arm and plan this attack by Hamas.
So, in other words, “stretching its ability to support Ukraine” was the whole point.
